After weeks of relatively calm and responsible behavior, Britney Spears reverted to form last night by getting into a car accident.
TMZ is calling the incident, which happened on the 405 freeway in L.A. around 8:20 PM local time, a minor fender bender that ended with everyone going "on their merry way."
Perez Hilton paints a somewhat more chaotic picture however, reporting exclusively that the other driver "is making a big deal" and that Britney was given a breathalyzer test. Hilton also said earlier that Britney had been hauled in for a drug test but this has since been removed from his site.
So why is Britney, a clear head-case, even allowed to drive at all? Here's what a source told OK! Magazine a couple of weeks ago:
Britney is addicted to driving. Initially, her father wouldn’t let her drive at all, but he knows how much she loves it and it calms her, so he’s softened the restriction. He now lets her toodle around the block in her gated community.
So now I guess Jamie is letting Britney out on the freeway. Because driving calms her. Does playing around with a shotgun calm her too? Maybe Jamie should get her one and let her shoot it. "We're sorry about your dog sir, but it's the only way to calm her down."
