LA Dodgers’ star outfielder Yasiel Puig was arrested yesterday coming of the Alligator Alley for Willful and Wanton Reckless Driving. So far the reports I have located indicate Puig was going 110 in a 70. unless there was more to the driving pattern, that means this is a bad arrest. In Florida, case law dictates that speed alone is insufficient to constitute reckless driving. This case doesn’t even qualify as a 50 over speeding ticket. Maybe later reports will indicate that he was doing something else reckless, otherwise this charge should not hold up.
