Streamer EBZ floored after being pulled over on camera for speeding IRL streamer Ebenezer \u201cEBZ\u201d Lembe received a hefty fine after being caught speeding during a live broadcast during the 2019 holiday season. After receiving backlash for several instances of driving recklessly in past broadcasts, EBZ has finally been met with legal action, which occurred just ahead of the New Year. In a clip taken from his December live stream, EBZ can be seen flying down a road when he looks in the mirror behind him to spot a police officer. \u201cAm I being pulled over?\u201d he asked, before his face transformed into a mask of surprise and realization. \u201cThis **** is pulling me over! What the f***? Like, what the f***? I wanna see this.\u201d Despite his disbelief, EBZ was indeed being pulled over, with the officer later claiming that he\u2019d been caught driving at 90 mph in a 65 mph zone \u2014 which the streamer argued had actually been 70 mph. EBZ\u2019s driving even earned him a hefty $700 ticket, which he contested with the officer during a heated conversation in front of the camera. \u201cSo, no kind of leniency, nothing, just a $700 Happy New Year ticket?\u201d EBZ asked. \u201cWell, again, you\u2019re the one operating the vehicle, not me,\u201d the officer responded. \u201cAnd I apologized, it\u2019s a mistake, like you made before,\u201d EBZ argued. \u201cBut you were going 90 miles an hour,\u201d the cop replied. \u201cWhen you stopped me, it was saying 80!\u201d EBZ retorted. \u201cYou\u2019re just telling me something you\u2019re saying. \u2026it\u2019s a brand new year, can I be given some kind of leniency?\u201d Unfortunately for the streamer, it doesn\u2019t look like his $700 citation is going away anytime soon \u2014 which he was lucky to get off with, considering that the officer even claimed that he could give EBZ yet another ticket for not having plates on his vehicle. This is far from the first time EBZ has recorded himself driving recklessly: the streamer faced backlash after passing out during an October driving broadcast and even driving while intoxicated in April, making his New Year\u2019s punishment a fitting result of his seemingly regular dismissal of the law.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
