  1. Adrian Peterson (Vikings RB) was driving 109mph in a 55mph zone. He was issued a ticket and released--If that would have been you or me--what are the chances he would have faced a more severe penalty? Would our license have been suspended, etc???

  4. He would have been in serious trouble because he was not only endangering himself but the others around him, and if he would have hit someone and killed them he would have gotten manslaughter, even if it was an accident because he had his foot on the pedal. He would have lost his license for a period of time.
