Britney Spears' Answer To Beating The Traffic Blues Includes Applying Makeup And Playing Bumper Cars
Posted by Molly Friedman at 3:50 AM on April 15, 2008
Looks like last week's news that the Britney Spears Comeback Tour were showing signs of slowing down were more prophetic than we thought. On Saturday night, Spears was on her way to break bread with her semi-estranged mother Lynne when she rear-ended a Nissan that stopped in traffic in front of her on the 101. The cause of the accident? Britney was applying her makeup while driving:
"The guy she hit...says before the accident, he was admiring the white Mercedes and the woman putting on makeup while driving it. It wasn't until after she hit him at an estimated 10-15 MPH that he realised the woman was Britney."More details on the gurney-less accident after the jump.
So did Saturday night's fender bender mark the return of The Package? Or did Britney's car just tap the one in front of her, but her celeb status led to mountains being made out of molehills? Taking into account the fact that the accident occurred on a Saturday night in "stop and go traffic," plus the minor speed with which Spears' Mercedes was travelling, we're giving Britney the benefit of the doubt. Also, the guy driving the Nissan has no injuries (his back hurts, though!) Our only concern is in regards to Britney's behaviour at the scene: the star reportedly "giggled" while performing her sobriety test. Funny!

Take Sepulveda Blvd. north from Wilshire Blvd. over the hill to pick up the 101 instead. This has been your Sig Alert traffic report.

Why...why can't i open defamer one day and read something to the effect: After being invloved in a traffic accident on the 101, Britney went to play in traffic...

I think that's the same area where Brandy had her car accident.
Drivers of Los Angeles, beware of killer ex-teen stars on the 405 to the 101!

@CourageousCoward: That sometimes works, but sometimes it doesn't. I used to live off Sepulveda between Mulholland and Ventura blvd. up until last month so the route you described was my daily commute.
It's generally good but it can be pretty bad too.
Wait am I agreeing or disagreeing with you? = /

I still think someone's clock is slowly ticking away and it's not Britney's. What a shame some poor slob will end up dead when this whole drama if finally over.
