Nickelback: Chad gets banned from driving

Nickelback frontman Chad Kroeger made his first court appearance yesterday in his on-going drink driving case.

The singer, who was absent from court when he was convicted of driving under the influence of alcohol on April 2, has been banned from driving for twelve months and was fined $600 (approximately £298).

Kroeger was pulled over for speeding in June 2006. At the time police claimed the singer blew over the .08 legal limit for alcohol (his reading was .14) and his $170,000 Lamborghini was impounded.

Leaving court, Kroeger told reporters that "everyone makes mistakes".

Kroeger's lawyer, Marvin Stern, added that the case has been "an intrusion" into his client's life and said that he will be appealing against the ruling.

He's always making 'mistakes'. Just look at his music career. He would have served Canada better by working in a Tim Hortons rather than damaging everyones ears with that dross he churns out.

The dipshit did the crime so why shouldn't he be put through court proceedings and punished accordingly? He was doing something could have killed someone. And a 600 dollar fine seems like just a slap on the wrist to me considering he was driving a car worth 170,000
