Rick Fox Busted — Traveling Violation

Rick Fox could end up paying the City of Los Angeles nearly $500 — because TMZ has learned, the ex-NBA star got popped for running a red light recently … and the cop didn’t let him off with a warning.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ, Fox — who was driving a brand new BMW 7 Series — was cruising around west L.A. when he accidentally stopped too late at a red light … and had to proceed through the intersection.

We’re told a cop saw the whole thing and pulled Fox over, citing him for running the red.

The ticket itself costs $446 … but with traffic school, the final bill could be a lot more.
