Justin Bieber Cited on Charge of Driving Recklessly in California

July 10, 2012

Teen pop sensation Justin Bieber was stopped and cited for driving in a "reckless manner" on the busy 101 Freeway on Friday morning, the California Highway Patrol said.

Bieber was pulled over in a chrome-colored sports car by CHP officers after he drove his car in a reckless manner at speeds in excess of 65 mph, Officer Ming Hsu said.

Bieber's precise speed was not available, he said.

The 18-year-old was driving a Fisker Karma and allegedly weaving in and out of traffic.

It is Bieber's latest scrape with the law in Los Angeles. The district attorney's office already is reviewing allegations that he battered a paparazzo during a confrontation in Calabasas.
