Nickelback frontman in court for drunk driving

Nickelback frontman Chad Kroeger pleaded not guilty to a drunk driving charge at Canada's Surrey Provincial Court last week. The singer, who was not present during proceedings, had his lawyer enter the plea on his behalf.

Kroeger was pulled over for speeding in June 2006. At the time police claimed the singer blew over the .08 legal limit for alcohol and his $170,000 Lamborghini was impounded.

The minimum sentence on conviction is a $600 fine and a one-year driving ban. The case continues.

Omgz yah cus chad kroeger is sooooooooooooo orrrriiiiggggiiiinnaaaaaaalllll isnt he? Give me a break "George Roberts" Nickelback are aite but Mr, Kroeger is hardly "the gr8est front man", as you so eloquently put it. He's an avergage rockstar in an average rock band and he's a total fuckface for drink driving. If you can afford a lamborghini you can afford a fucking taxi, seriously what a joke.

Meh

I love Nickelback, and hate the assholes who diss him just because Kerrang! Magazine dislikes him...

BUT he should know better, hell their first album had an image of two cars crashing (the people inside were two lovers...). I agree, but getting a cab, you seriously have not been to canada... their cabs SUCK.
