All three drivers in a campaign
caravan carrying retired general Wesley Clark of Little Rock got
speeding tickets yesterday from an Oklahoma state trooper. Clark`s
three-car caravan was headed back from a campaign appearance in
McAlester to Oklahoma City shortly early Sunday, shortly after
midnight, when it was pulled over by the trooper.
The trooper cited Clark staffer Reid Cherlin -- who was driving
the lead vehicle carrying Clark and foreign policy adviser Jamie
Rubin -- for speeding. The trooper said he clocked the car at 88
miles per hour in a 75 mile an hour zone. Cherlin said he had set
the car`s cruise control for 83 miles per hour. Cherlin and the
drivers of the two other cars in the caravan were given $150
speeding tickets.
