A ticket for 38 in a 25 speed zone seems awfully petty.

They could give everyone a ticket for that.

Must have been trying to meet their quotas.

Or maybe he showed his ass to the cop, a much more likely senario give the POS we're talking about.

He certainly wasn't suspended for the speeding ticket. But college towns have these kind of traps all the time. There's a road in Highland Park, NJ (near Rutgers) that is 4 lanes of straight road with a 25 limit.

No doubt Vick isn't the only one to get a ticket there, but 13 mph over is not petty, even if it is a trap.

You don't think the speeding ticket caused his problems, do you?

And"serving alcohol to underage girls" and "possesion of marijuana"?
Forty years ago,I would have been kicked off any team I was on if that was the criteria.

That's Blacksburg for you. A good friend of mine told me her son received a speeding ticket for going 27 in a 25 mile hour zone. And no, she wasn't making it up, she made a copy of the traffic violation and put it up on the board for everyone to see. Outrageous.

What they left out of the story is that he was speeding in a school zone while the school caution light was blinking. I don't know if that is a big deal in Virginia but in North Carolina, they really stick it to you for that infraction.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't he also illegally driving with a suspended license as well?
