More real life drama for the "Real Housewives of Orange County" -- this time, Tamra Barney's son is behind bars after cops made a major discovery during a minor traffic stop in the OC.
TMZ has learned Ryan Vieth -- whose traffic problems have been chronicled on the show -- was taken into custody Wednesday night after cops pulled the guy over ... and then learned there was an active warrant out for his arrest.
Law enforcement sources tell us Vieth had missed a recent court appearance in connection with a prior traffic problem -- so he became a wanted man.
Ryan is being held on $15,000 bail -- he's scheduled to face the judge later today.

(Page 1 of 1)He looks like a serial killer with rapey eyes. And he's such a douchebag. At first I thought Simon was mean for the way he treated Ryan, but it became clear why he was doing it and personally I think it was justified. Ryan is a loser and always will be.
Voted 4 Obama and Completed my Census:
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooh who the f*ck cares. We all get caught in a minor traffic offense. Kill ya damn selves TMZ. You obviously have **** else better to do. Losers!!!! To Ryan, I ran a stop sign and got a speeding ticket. You are normal. just be careful babes. TMZ are some silly azz mutha ****as.
He isa P.O.S. just like his trashy mom. Instead of trying to be the "hottest housewife - not" she should have paid more attention to this loser wanna be date rapist,etc. Just a matter of time when he joins Michael Douglas' son in the pokie. Tamraaaah will probably find a way to get a show outta it where she can fake tammy fay baker cry off all her war paint.
No surprise as he always had lame excuses anyway. He opted to go to jail for 5 days instead of community service..talk about lazy and twisted.
He's more girly than his Mother. That "relationship" has always seemed a little on the strange side..
This kid helped destroy his Mother's marriage. (helped not caused)
He put a big wedge between his Mom and Simon. Tamera felt torn and Simon was sick of Ryan's crap. It is very sad.
He's such a LOSER! He probably didn't show up in court cause he was busy getting himself another gross tattoo.
He's a loser just like his weak mother. She's such a cry baby go back to Simon....my bad he dismissed your weak ass prostitute..stay away from botox and fake boobs dude..
