He is only going to be locked up if he breached his probation.

When ever police stop a car they check everybody in the car. Watch Cops every once in awhile and you will see this happen. Supposedly it is done so in case the driver gets arrested they can leave the car with a passenger with drivers permission. But if something comes up on any of the passengers they can be arrested. He will be in lock up until he sees a judge. Depending on what the violation was. Also depends on the three strike law of the city this happened in. If it was something major like weapons or drugs he will be there to serve whatever is left on his probation. If he has been arrested 2 times for any other offense and this is the third he will get a life sentence. At least here in California that is the three strike law.

Well, there has got to be more to this than you know.
Simply being in a car as a passenger, when stopped for speeding, is not grounds for an arrest or probation violation.
So, there must have been a warrant out for the passenger on some unrelated matter.
Depending on what the warrant is for, he could be locked up until is probation is revoked and then he goes back to jail. Or, the judge could decide to let him out on bail while the charges are decided.

People don't get arrested up just for being a passenger in a speeding car.
Anyways, it all depends on what he was arrested for, what he is on probation for and the individual judge.
If he is on probation for something fairly minor and is arrested for something else minor and has an understanding judge. He might not have anything happen
On the other hand, if the circumstances are more severe, he may go away for years.

it's up to the judge, no hard, fast rule, it really depends on what the PO states in Court, how the defendant responds to the Court, and the mood of the judge, no joke. Judge might decide to set an example. Judge might decide to teach him a lesson. Judge may decide that further intervention isn't necessarily going to benefit the defendant.

If he violated the terms of probation, he could go to jail. That is for a judge to decide.

I don't think so he be held, he has nothing to do with the speed driving. Maybe just invited to further check his record, u don't need to worry if he's clean at the time, I mean, he has nothing illegal stuff or something for that matter

he wouldn't have been arrested for being in a car that was speeding - you have to know that.
there had to have been something else involved...
