British Prince Philip dropped his driver's license on Saturday.
Philip, 97, the British prince, will not be charged with a road accident leaving a woman with broken wrists, prosecutors said Thursday.
Last month, Queen Elizabeth II's husband went on a highway, hitting another car and returning his Land Rover.
The incident occurred near the private estate of Sandringham, located in the east of England, where the couple traditionally spends the winter months.
A woman in the other vehicle, a Kia, broke her wrist and the other, the knee. A nine-month-old baby in the back seat was not injured.
The Crown has stated that no further action would be taken against the Prince.
The Duke of Edinburgh waived his driver's license on Saturday, which the CPS Chris 1965, Chief Crown Attorney for the CPS in East of England, stated that the prosecutors had "carefully examined" the documents presented by the police about the collision.
"We took into account all the circumstances in this case, including the degree of guilt, the age of the driver and the surrender of the driver's license. it would not be in the public interest to sue.
Buckingham Palace A spokeswoman said: "The Duke of Edinburgh respects the decision."
"Deeply Sorry"
Prince Philip apologized in a letter addressed to the pbadenger of the other car, Emma Fairweather, 46, claiming that she he was "deeply sorry" for his broken wrist.
"I would like you to know how much I feel sorry for me in the accident," says the letter dated January 21 and revealed by Fairweather to the Sunday Mirror newspaper.
"The sun was shining low on the main road […] I can only imagine that I did not see the car arrive and I am very contrite about the consequences.
" I have was somewhat shaken by the accident, but I was deeply relieved that none of you was seriously injured.
"I wish you a speedy recovery after a very painful experience."
The Duke was photographed driving a replacement Land Rover – without a seatbelt – two days after the accident. The police said that the royal patriarch had received "appropriate advice".
The accident has sparked a debate about the elderly and driving in Britain, where there is no maximum age.
