US sprint star Richardson arrested on speeding charge in Florida
Jail records showed Richardson was booked on a charge of dangerous excessive speeding, the arrest made by officers of the Orange County Sheriff's Office. Her bond was set at $500.
Richardson, a former 100m world champion who won 100m silver and relay gold at the Paris Olympics, is no stranger to controversy.
The 25-year-old Texan was arrested in July at Seattle-Tacoma Airport after shoving her boyfriend, fellow sprinter Cristian Coleman.
She offered Coleman an apology via social media, and no charges ensued.
Richardson was controversially barred from the delayed Tokyo Olympics in 2021 after testing positive for marijuana following her victory at the US trials and drawing a one-month suspension.
Florida's "super speeder law" aimed at combating a rise in traffic fatalities and serious crashes took effect last July.
It criminalizes driving 50 miles per hour over a posted speed limit or driving over 100 mph.
A first conviction can be punished by up to 30 days in jail and a $500 fine.
