Kyle Busch cited for 128 in a 45 mph zone


Stopped near Troutman while driving Lexus

TROUTMAN, NC - NASCAR driver Kyle Busch was cited for careless and reckless driving after deputies said they clocked him doing nearly three times the posted speed limit Tuesday afternoon.

Iredell County Sheriff’s Office Sgt. Chris Stone, a member of the Aggressive Criminal Enforcement (ACE) team, stopped a yellow Lexus sports car after he clocked it doing 128 mph in a 45 mph zone on Perth Road near Judas Road, between Troutman and Mooresville.

Busch, driver of the No. 18 Mars/Interstate Batteries Toyota Camry, was cited for careless and reckless driving and speeding, said Lt. Troy Miller, who supervises the ACE team for the sheriff’s office.

They could have impounded the car and arrested him. I think he already got off easy.

As funny as this is on the surface, knowing how conservative TMC is, the guy could easily lose his NASCAR support from Toyota
And then we can get into the stupidity and disregard for public safety for the alleged event
