Rabobank DS cited for "dangerous driving"

Rabobank's Frans Maassen couldn't believe it last week when the Netherlands police pulled him over and ticketed him for "dangerous driving." The Directeur Sportif was driving 35 km an hour behind his team, which was training for the upcoming Amstel Gold Race, according to HLN. It was unclear whether the police thought he was driving too slowly or endangering the riders in front of him. At any rate, he was told to pay a €400 fine. He has already said that he will contest the charges.
