Britney Spears Pulled Over By LA Police for Speeding

On Saturday August 25, 2007 the Pop Tart got herself in more trouble. Wearing a blonde wig and brown hat, 25 year old Britney Spears was driving her white Mercedes convertible at high speed with two passengers when she was pulled over in her high performance sports car for speeding.

Britney was headed east on Interstate 10 on her way to Las Vegas around 12:30 a.m. with two of her male dancers in the car when a LA police cruiser quickly accelerated up behind her in the fast lane and with its lights flashing the Highway Patrol attempted to pull the car over.

However, despite the officer pulling up directly behind Spears with his lights on, she continued driving for nearly a mile before finally pulling off the highway and stopping at a gas station.

After getting a quick telling off from the female officer Britney pleaded innocence and Britney told the officers she was speeding because she was being chased by the paparazzi.

Once she pulled over, Britney was reportedly extremely cooperative with authorities and after a brief conversation; she was let off with a warning.

It was just Britney's lucky day and she got away with just a warning, leading one of the officers to say, “it pays to be a pop-star”.

After the officers left, Spears handed over the wheel to one of her dancer passengers and the car headed back towards her Los Angeles home.
