Oregon police issue speeding ticket to Gore
Gore, who was alone, was issued a $141 ticket for driving 75 miles per hour on a highway in the northwest corner of the state, police said this week. The speed limit is 55 mph.
He was issued the ticket on Aug. 3, said Lt. Dale Rutledge of the Oregon State Police.
Gore will pay the fine, spokesman Mike Feldman told The Associated Press Friday.
The trooper who stopped Gore didn't recognize him until he presented his license, Sgt. Andrew Merila told KATU-TV.
The trooper said Gore, who carried Oregon when he ran for president in 2000, was polite throughout the encounter.
