The reality star, 31, who won the 2018 series of Love Island, was reportedly stopped by police while driving at high speed on the A2 near his home in Swanley, Kent, on August 26.
Jack was given a blood test and arrested on suspicion of reckless and uninsured driving, police said The sun.

‘There is no evidence at this time that Mr Fincham is over the legal limit and we hope his blood results will show the same.’
A source close to Jack added that the reality star denies using drugs and used private license plates instead of fake ones.
MailOnline has contacted representatives for Jack Fincham and Kent Police for comment.
Jack is reportedly flying to Fiji to appear in Love Island Games, the spin-off series that sees contestants enter a villa on their quest for love.
In July, Jack revealed he had split from his girlfriend Jodie Ella.
Speaking as part of the Original Penguin X Campaign Against Living Miserably Below the surface podcast, he hinted at a return to a villa in the wake of Adam Collard and Kady McDermott’s explosive comebacks.
When asked about Kady, Jack, who was recently linked to Chloe Brockett and Frankie Sims before his romance with Jodie, said: ‘Oh yeah, of course I would go back to the show. Please. It’s like a perfect environment to meet someone…
‘You don’t have to worry about your phone, going to work or cooking! Not only am I trying to get out of work, but yeah, I would go back on the show in a heartbeat.”

Everywhere: In July, Jack revealed he had split from his girlfriend Jodie Ella
While admitting that he’s “getting a lot of attention,” Jack confessed that he’s ready to find lasting love, saying, “But actually, I’m kind of ready to find someone…
“(I want) to spend time with them. My brother is 28 and he has been with his girlfriend for nine years and I think: wow, I would love that now.’
In 2019, Jack shockingly confessed that he doesn’t know if he’s ever been in love, despite dating Dani for almost a year.
On Celebs Go Dating, Jack broke his silence on their split as he explained that he thinks they moved too quickly after leaving the Love Island villa.
When dating agents Anna Williamson and Paul C Brunson asked if he had ever been in love, Jack admitted: ‘I don’t know now’.
He added: ‘I’ve had three serious girlfriends for a long time… and you know, when I was with them I said ‘I love you’ to all of them. Did I do that? Don’t know’.
He said: ‘If we had lived on Love Island forever we would have been fine. We immediately rushed over it, we moved in together. I wanted to (move in with her), but I wish we had waited.
“I let her push me a little bit. We had a real connection there and I think everyone can see that. Honestly, and I mean it, I wish her all the luck in the world.
‘I’m not a bitter person. Oh, I’m 100 percent over Dani and now I want to go meet someone. I missed so much dating. I haven’t done it in over a year.’
