Prince Phillip 'voluntarily' surrenders his driving licence

The Duke of Edinburgh, 97, was behind the wheel near the Sandringham Estate last month when his Land Rover Freelander collided with a Kia.

He was unhurt but was checked by a doctor.

Both of the women travelling in the Kia received hospital treatment, one for a broken wrist.

The crash sparked a debate as to whether Prince Philip should still be driving at his age. Just 48 hours after the accident, he was pictured driving without a seatbelt

A statement from Buckingham Palace said: "After careful consideration The Duke of Edinburgh has taken the decision to voluntarily surrender his driving licence."

He gave up his credentials on Saturday, the Palace said.
