10 Celebs Who Should Stop Driving Forever

May 29, 2013 - 3:37 pm by Chris Yuscavage

From reckless driving to DUIs, it seems like every other day a celeb gets busted behind the wheels. But there's a handful of VIPs who routinely collect multiple charges. One simple solution? Stop driving. Road rage is no excuse when stars have enough moola to put a driver on payroll. Why not skip all the legal battles, slip into the backseat of something expensive and get chauffeured around? It won't be cheap. But neither are court fees and lawyer bills. These 10 celebs should think about relinquishing their licenses, for their safety and ours.

The Celebrity: Justin Bieber Why He Should Stop Driving: It's been less than five years since Biebs got his license. And yet, he's already managed to rack up a handful of tickets and been accused of speeding around his Calabasas, Calif. neighborhood in his Ferrari 458 Italia. Recently, NFL player Keyshawn Johnson—who lives in a gated community in Calabasas—actually chased Bieber down in his Toyota Prius to let him know that he didn't appreciate him speeding up and down his block. So maybe Biebs should hand his keys over to someone who is a little bit more responsible, at least for the time being. Photo Credit: Yahoo

The Celebrity: Amanda Bynes Why She Should Stop Driving: The former Nickelodeon star has been charged with just about every car-related crime. Er, okay. So she might have a few crimes that she hasn't committed (yet), but she certainly has a pretty crazy rap sheet. From the DUI she received in April 2012 to the hit-and-run she was charged with four months later, Bynes has been arrested for all sorts of infractions. And she's had her license suspended on a number of different occasions and continued to drive. What is it going to take for her to realize that she can't do whatever she wants when she hits the highway? Photo Credit: Zimbio

The Celebrity: Lil Twist Why He Should Stop Driving: Twist either has really bad luck with cars—or he's just a terrible driver. Either way, he's borrowed luxury rides from his pal Justin Bieber on several occasions now and crashed them. In January, he was driving a Ferrari owned by Biebs when he accidentally hit a paparazzo. Then, in March, he accidentally hit two poles while driving Bieber's Fisker Karma. And finally, Biebs had to "downgrade" Twist to his Range Rover just to avoid any further damage to his more expensive rides. Hey, Biebs, how about just giving the guy some cab fare whenever he wants to go somewhere? You would save yourself a lot of money. Photo Credit: The Jasmine Brand

The Celebrity: Paris Hilton Why She Should Stop Driving: After she got busted for DUI back in 2006, the socialite was forced to serve 23 days behind bars. But do you think that forced her to change her ways? Nah. In 2007, Paris got popped for driving with a suspended license. That same year, she got caught driving 70 mph in a 35 mph zone. We won't even get into all the minor accidents she's had over the years. Fortunately, she seems to be bringing along a driver more often these days. We just wish she'd make that a permanent arrangement. Photo Credit: Born Rich

The Celebrity: Chris Brown Why He Should Stop Driving: Breezy likes to drive whips that get attention. These expensive cars not only attract the po-po but have caused him to get pulled over several times in recent years. CB may face jail time because of a recent driving incident. Earlier this month, he was involved in a minor car accident when his Range Rover hit a Mercedes-Benz. He allegedly gave the responding police officer false insurance information. So he might be better off letting someone else handle the driving for awhile. Photo Credit: E! Online

The Celebrity: Lindsay Lohan Why She Should Stop Driving: Where do we even begin? Over the past five years or so, LiLo has endured a number of car-related problems. There was the time she got hit with a DUI. There was the time she was charged with a hit-and-run. The time she accidentally hit an 18-wheeler... Yes, an 18-wheeler! And those are just her major offenses. In between those, Lohan's been involved in accidents and pulled over for breaking driving laws. It's all confusing. Photo Credit: Celebrity Car Blog

The Celebrity: DMX Why He Should Stop Driving: In June 2004, X was arrested at JFK International Airport and charged with cocaine possession, criminal impersonation, criminal possession of a weapon, criminal mischief, menacing, and DUI after he claimed to be a federal agent and attempted to carjack a vehicle. As ridiculous as that all sounds, it's just one of many car-related crimes that the rapper has committed. DMX has also been charged with excessive speeding for going 102 mph in a 65 mph zone. He's been caught driving without a license. And he's been arrested for aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle. It's pretty clear he doesn't need to be getting into the driver's seat anytime soon. Photo Credit: XXL

The Celebrity: Britney Spears Why She Should Stop Driving: Most of the celebrities on this list have gotten into trouble for breaking the law. Britney, however, has gotten into trouble for terrible judgment. In one such case, she was spotted driving with her young son sitting on her lap. In another, she got a flat tire and abandoned her car in the middle of a road in Los Angeles. In one other situation, she accidentally ran over a paparazzo's foot. For whatever reason, Brit doesn't make smart decisions when she's behind the wheel of a car. Photo Credit: Us Magazine

The Celebrity: Soulja Boy Why He Should Stop Driving: Accidents happen. But after Soulja Boy was involved in a car crash in July 2012, he tried to do anything and everything to get out of trouble. First, he said he wasn't behind the wheel when the accident took place. Then, he admitted that he was driving but said that he wasn't to blame for the accident. Finally, he claimed that the other driver was racist and that he didn't like the way she handled the aftermath of the crash. At some point, Soulja has to own up and take the L. Otherwise, he's clearly not responsible enough to drive himself. Photo Credit: Diva Artist

The Celebrity: Michelle Rodriguez Why She Should Stop Driving: Strangely enough, Rodriguez didn't have a license before she starred in the first The Fast and the Furious movie back in 2001. She had to obtain it in order to land a role in the film. It was a great move for her career, but a bad one for her personal life. In the years following the first F&F, she was arrested on hit-and-run charges and hit with a DUI. A few years later, she was arrested for DUI again. In 2005, she was pulled over and ticketed a number of times for speeding while filming Lost in Hawaii. So she would've saved a whole lot of money if she had skipped the auctions for F&F. We sincerely hope she's being more careful on the roads these days. Photo Credit: India Times
