Beyonce doesn’t know what a “No phone zone” is and she obviously never signed Oprah Winfrey’s pledge! According to a report, the singer was pulled over on June 23rd by the NYPD and was cited for texting while driving.
“Beyoncé was really embarrassed because she only recently got her driver’s license,” revealed a source. In an effort to get out of the situation, the Texas native is said to have tried to use her celebrity status to avoid receiving a ticket.
“She tried to charm that cop and told him she had no idea that texting while driving was against the law,” said the insider. But it seems that being Beyoncé wasn’t enough to keep her out of hot water. “He had no idea who she was. He just slapped her with the ticket, which was worth more than $100!”
Earlier this year it was reported that Beyoncé’s hubby, Jay-Z, gave her driving lessons to help her pass her road test, but it appears he may have forgotten to stress one important thing: texting while driving is against the law.
Faced with the thought of that whopping $100 ticket, I’m sure Bey has learned her lesson and will never do it again…. womp womp!

Although it should be…….texting and driving is NOT against the law in some states.
….and $100? For Beyonce? She probably pulled that bill out of her lacefront……ON SPOT!
Is it against the law everywhere?
I think it shows that all of us are susceptible to the urge to answer those seductive chimes and buzzes when we get an incoming text – even if its while we are operating a 5,000 pound piece of steel and glass.
I hope Beyonce uses this as an opportunity to speak out against texting and driving. With the popularity and respect she has earned from her fans, she could save lives on our highways with just one simple announcement. 6,000 deaths a year from texting and driving…can we all say “no more!”

Okay y’all don’t give the girl a hard time. I’m sure a lot of you all have done worse. Putting on make up should be in the same law boat.

[...] BUSTED! Beyonce Caught Texting and Driving… [...]
what makes this so funny is that, I read somewhere that a car is what she brought when she got her first BIG check while with DC. Did she have a driver, it didn’t say. I continue to read things that totally contradict what she has said in pass interviews. SMH
