Lil Yachty, whose given name is Miles McCollum, was arrested and charged with driving more than 150 mph down an Atlanta interstate, as WSB-TV reports. The Atlanta rapper was pulled over on Sept. 21 on the Downtown Connector near University Avenue.
The 23-year-old was driving a white Ferrari at the time. He was taken to the Atlanta City Jail while his vehicle was given to a friend. Lil Yachty was charged with speeding in excess of maximum limits and reckless driving.

Back in June, Yachty crashed a red Ferrari on the Downtown Connector. There were reports by witnesses that speed and wet roads were a factor in the accident. The incident took place near the same place that the rapper was pulled over last week.
