He spoke only to confirm his name and to formally enter pleas of not guilty to both offences. He is now due to stand trial next Spring. Judge Simon Berkson said the hearing, listed for March 17, 2025, was expected to last three days.
Numerous dates were set and procedural matters dealt with ahead of the trial at the short hearing. He was released on unconditional bail and left court accompanied by his barrister and two women.
Cheshire Police said in an earlier statement: "At around 6.20pm on Sunday, August 20 2023 police were called to reports of a collision on the A34, Wilmslow, near to Total Fitness.

Brandon Williams, 23, of Anton Walk, Manchester, was later charged with dangerous driving and driving without insurance."
