George Zimmerman, who was recently acquitted in the controversial shooting death of Trayvon Martin, had a handgun in his truck's glove box when a Texas police officer pulled him over for speeding near Dallas last Sunday, authorities say.

Zimmerman immediately told the Forney, Texas officer he had the gun when the officer approached his door. Earlier reports by a Dallas TV station that the weapon was sitting outside the glove box were inaccurate, said Forney city manager Brian Brooks.

Transporting a gun inside a vehicle's compartment is legal in Texas. Zimmerman's conceal carry permit was re-instated after he was found not guilty, but the gun involved in the death of Martin is now with federal investigators who are conducting their own probe.

The Sunday traffic stop, most of which was captured on the officer's dashboard camera, lasted about five minutes.
"It wasn't for super-excessive speeds, they just got him on regular speeding," Brooks told Reuters. "It's a pretty routine stop except for the fact that it was George Zimmerman."

There are different levels of speeding.....fast enough can get you arrested

6. yup there is speeding, then reckless, depending on the jurisdiction

Usually anything within five over is a warning, at eighty in a seventy your on the line for a ticket. Most traffic stops are just done because.there is pc so the cop can get to talk to the driver etc.
