The 71-year-old rocker has been in the headlines of late after it was discovered earlier in the week he had been arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence last November. That news was compounded by the fact that on Sunday Springsteen starred in a Super Bowl commercial for Jeep. That spot has since been pulled.
in Gateway National Recreation Area. He was charged with driving while intoxicated, reckless driving and consuming alcohol in a closed area, National Park Service spokeswoman Brenda Ling on Wednesday toldAccording to theobtained by news outlets, "Springsteen smelt strongly of alcohol coming off his person and had glassy eyes," ranger R.L. Hayes wrote.

, citing a source familiar with Springsteen's case, reported that at some point he did submit to a test and had a, which is just a quarter of Jersey’s legal limit of 0.08. The portion of the arrest report released to the media did not include his BAC to verify. Springsteen's arrest took place on federal land, which means the case will be handled by the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Newark. His initial court appearance is forthcoming.
There are literally no new details I’m this report.
.02 doesn’t mean “maybe he wasn’t THAT drunk” it means he WASN’T DRUNK. I predict he’ll take it to trial and win, or more likely, the case will be dismissed based on the low BAC.
The guy is human he talks about politicians that are corrupt and they think they got revenge. Maybe trump will pardon him. I think its bullshit but maybe a public service announcement. I don't know anyone that could do that more graciously as Mr. Springsteen
They should have just called a relative ,friend to come and pick him up . That's what I would have done Surely would not have taken him in and it being under the limit.
Set -up.
He was well under the legal limit. No story here only what the so called journalists make up!
feetheboss
When field sobriety tests are administered, is age factored in when balance is assessed?
He was under the legal limit, give him a break. Love ya Bruce x
BS
This will get buried like all the other bullshit the so called elite pull!!!
This makes no sense. Why would he get on his bike in front of a cop and why would a cop let him?
What new details 🤷🏼♂️ffs ?
Still with this shit? Unfollowing in 3, 2, 1...
CANCEL CULTURE IDIOTS CANCEL ONE OF THEIR OWN
Fantastic journalism, guys. This is from November, he was cooperative, and the only account of his BAC defines him as under the limit. Fantastic scoop.
