Kyle Busch has received a traffic ticket for doing 128 mile per hour in a 45 mph zone in Iredell County, North Carolina.
He was driving his new Lexus LFA sports car.
He later issued the following statement:
“Today I received a traffic citation in Iredell County. I was test driving a new sports car and I got carried away. I went beyond the speed I should have been going on a public road. I apologize to the public, my fans, sponsors, and race teams for my lack of judgment. I take responsibility for my actions and I can assure you that something like this will never happen again. I thank the Iredell County Sheriff’s Department and all law enforcement for the hard work they do every day to protect the public and to enforce the laws in a fair and equitable manner.”
