Summary
Rohan Dennis, 36, admitted in Adelaide Magistrates Court to driving while disqualified after police stopped him last month with two children in the car.
The charge breaches a five-year driving ban imposed after the former Olympic cyclist received a suspended 17-month jail term and a two-year good behaviour bond in 2025.
That sentence followed his guilty plea to aggravated creating the likelihood of harm over the 2023 incident in which his wife, Olympic cyclist Melissa Hoskins, was fatally struck by a car.
Prosecutors want the new offence and the alleged bond breach sent to the District Court, with Dennis due back in court in September.
