He was charged with speeding and reckless driving after being caught speeding 140 mph in a 55 mph zone.
Addison stated that she was in a hurry because her dog was experiencing an emergency.
“Yesterday morning I made a mistake and used poor judgment,” Addison said in a statement.
“I recognize and acknowledge that. I will learn from this and not repeat the behavior.
“I’m really sorry.”
The reckless driving charge was dismissed, but Addison pleaded guilty to speeding and paid $686 in fines.
