SOCCER thug Danny Simpson was branded a “dangerous simpleton” for driving with no hands — as his daughter sat beside him.
The Leicester defender, 29, filmed himself grinning and gazing at his five-year-old in the front passenger seat of the 4×4.
The £35,000-a-week ace also bopped his head to a hip-hop song.
Simpson, convicted last year of trying to throttle his daughter’s mum, posted his phone video on Snapchat.
It was removed last night.
A source said: “Everyone was shocked to see it.
“What kind of father does that?
“He could’ve crashed.
“He’s a dangerous simpleton.”

Road safety group GEM Motoring Assist said: “It’s abundantly clear that the camera used was not securely attached to the car.
“We can only assume he was holding it.
“Seeing him remove his right hand from the wheel and make a fist means that he was driving with no hands on the steering wheel.
“There is also a period of nearly two seconds during which he looks to the passenger seat.”
Road safety charity Brake said: “Whether Mr Simpson likes it or not, he is a role model and in the public eye.
“He should be setting a better example.”
Simpson’s agent refused to comment.
