Danger, Danger–Celebrity Behind the Wheel
June 15, 2007Californians have always prided themselves on their driving skills (except when it rains and there are 500 fender-benders in three hours). That’s why you’ll see people shaving, texting, applying make-up, reading magazines and screaming at their phones.
But it seems like someone needs to open a Celebrity Driving School. I don’t venture to West Hollywood, especially late at night, because of the growing celebrity menace.
Accidental meetings with celebrities have always been a lure of Los Angeles, but they were fatal for the unlucky folks who encountered Prison Break’s Lane Garrison and singer Brandy.
Sure–not every celebrity crash is a fatal one. But with Lindsay, Paris Hilton’s potentially ugly DUI, “Wrong Way” Nicole Ritchie (called that because she was arrested for DUI going against traffic on a freeway!), Halle Berry and even Mischa Barton of the OC commiting mayhem behind the wheel, maybe celebrity chronicler TMZ.COM should change their “Trainwrecks” section to “Celebrity Car Crashes.”
Watch out for celebrities when you’re on the road, or your car will may look like this.
