BOXER Amir Khan is under investigation by police for live streaming while driving his luxury car.
While driving his PS100,000.00 Range Rover, the ex-world champion chatted with fans for eight minutes.
Khan, 35, has been convicted of motoring offences in the past. He is seen reading messages on his phone.
It is against the law to use a handheld device while driving to make or receive a text message.
Khan didn't touch his phone's screen, but he could still be in trouble for driving recklessly.
Yesterday, Greater Manchester Police informed HOAR that a video posted on social media by the GMP appeared to show a driver driving a car. Police are currently investigating.
Khan's Christmas Day livestream on YouTube was recorded as he drove along a friend near his Bolton home. As he spoke out to his fans around the globe, he appeared relaxed.
Before he fights Kell Brook in Manchester next month, he also read and answered questions about his training regimen.
Khan's video clip has been viewed nearly 40,000 times.
One viewer screamed, "He is a threat to society." This kind of recklessness has caused too many deaths. This is why it is against the law. It is illegal to read text messages and other social media messages while driving.
Mary Williams OBE is chief executive of Brake road safety charity. She stated: "Driver distractions can be deadly. Using a hand-held cellphone at the wheel is never worth it.
Khan was given a six-month driving ban in 2007 and a PS1,000 fine for careless driving.
He was also fined an additional PS1,000 in 2008 and banned for 42 days for speeding at 140 mph on the M62.
This year, motoring laws that govern drivers using mobile phones to take photos, videos, scroll through playlists or play games will be strengthened.
