Truck driver arrested after cops say he ‘records music while driving down the highway’

The Washington State Patrol says that they discovered several unacceptable violations during a recent commercial vehicle traffic stop.

On Monday, February 10, Washington State Patrol Trooper C. Thorson tweeted to describe an unusual instance of distracted driving involving a truck driver.

He wrote: “Just when you thought you have heard it all…..Trooper Trombley stopped a semi truck driver for speeding (17 over). After arresting the driver for suspicion of DUI/drugs, he found out that the suspect produces/records music while driving down the highway. #notacceptable“

Thorson also noted that the truck driver “also had a drop down mic from the ceiling of the cab.”
