Nick Hogan gets out of jail Oct. 21. Apparently mother Linda was in a rush to visit him before he gets his walking papers.
The reality-TV matriarch and estranged wife of the Hulkster was cited for speeding in Florida while en route to visit her son in the clink.
"She received a traffic ticket," Pinellas County Sheriff Department Sgt. Jim Bordner tells E! News, adding that, despite some earlier reports, "she was not arrested."
Hogan was pulled over on Tampa's Bayside Bridge at about 2:52 p.m. ET Friday after her white Escalade was clocked at 71 mph in a 55 mph zone.
"After stopping the car, [the deputy] identified the driver as Linda Bollea [Hogan's legal name]," says Bordner. "The deputy said she was cooperative and told him that she was on her way to visit her son." Hogan now must decide whether to fight the $206 citation. Her options, per Bordner: "She can pay the ticket, go to court or go to driver improvement school."
