Lawrence TaylorHe was one of the fastest linebackers of all time ... but NFL Hall of Famer Lawrence Taylor was arrested Sunday night after cops say he booked it from the scene of an accident.

Taylor, who recently competed on "Dancing with the Stars," was arrested in Dade County, Florida at 9:57 PM for "leaving scene of an accident/property damage."

Taylor was brought to a local police station, where he was booked, smiled for a mug shot, and was eventually released on $500 bond.

According to the booking sheet, Taylor -- who is a spokesman for Nutrisystem -- was listed at 253 pounds.

7. Oh, man. This is really disappointing. LT was doing so great for himself recently. He no longer does drugs, has been clean and sober, and did great on DWTS. He is THE greatest linebacker to ever step on a gridiron, and is a VERY NICE guy. A former co-worker of mine met him on a golf course in my area. Hope LT and the accident victim are both okay, and that everything has been rectified.

God Bless and God Speed LT!

12. LT put down the crack pipe but picked up a jones for Baskin Robbins Heath Bar sundaes with gravy.
He ran to hide his girdle before being searched.
