"After careful consideration, the Duke of Edinburgh has taken the decision to voluntarily surrender his driving license," Buckingham Palace said Saturday.
Philip, who is Queen Elizabeth II's husband, crashed a Land Rover into another car Jan. 17, injuring two women, the AP reported. He apologized in a letter to one victim, blaming the sun's glare for the incident, according to the AP.
Prosecutors are determining whether to file charges in the crash.
