Leeds-based PC Mark Hinchliffe, 42, has been suspended from duty ahead of his appearance at Bradford Magistrates Court this week alongside his wife Lisa, 38.
The couple have been jointly charged with perverting the course of justice by allowing Lisa Hinchliffe to accept a speeding ticket on her husband’s behalf, knowing she had not committed the traffic offence.
