Rapper DMX was arrested and charged with various driving violations on Friday (June 2) after police pulled the rapper over in White Plains, New York for speeding.
Police stopped DMX for driving his 2001 Chevy Suburban at high speeds. He was also ticketed for making an unsafe lane change.
According to police, the 35-year-old rapper didn't have a drivers license and was not wearing a seat belt when he was pulled over.
He was ticketed and ordered to appear in court on June 16.
Last month, DMX was arrested at London's Heathrow airport for allegedly verbally abusing the cabin crew on a flight to England. In that incident the rapper, born Earl Simmons, refused to button his seat belt as the plane was landing.
He was arrested and issued a caution by officers in London.
DMX has an infamous driving record and has been arrested numerous times over the years for driving erratically.
In 2004 he was arrested at JFK Airport in New York after a road-rage incident involving a parking space.
He violated his probation in that case when he was ticketed for driving 104 mph on Interstate 684 in upstate New York. Another incident occurred where he was cited for striking a car, which in turn struck a police cruiser on the Major Deegan highway n the Bronx.
In Nov. of 2005, DMX was sentenced to serve 70 days on Rikers Island for the infractions but was released from prison on Dec. 30 for good behavior.
In Jan. of 2006, the platinum-selling rapper's wife also ran afoul of the law, when they clocked her driving her 2000 Mercedes-Benz 106 mph in North Castle, N.Y. on Interstate 684 - the same road DMX was arrested doing 104 mph in Dec. 2004.
