DRIVING WHILE FAMOUS: Celebrities Who Did Dumb Stuff Behind The Wheel

The world of A-list celebrities has become something of a joke in recent years.
People like Paris Hilton have managed to secure world-wide fame by having sex on tape and by having a rich dad. It's pretty ridiculous.
But thankfully, there is salvation, as these "celebrities" are often just socialites, meaning they typically get themselves into quite a mess of an evening.
So with that being said, here’s a quick run-down of some of the most infamous celebrities who were caught behind the wheel being very naughty, indeed.
Paris Hilton was found driving without a license. Twice.
While Paris Hilton’s name was brought up, it makes sense to start with her.
The heiress to the Hilton Empire is one of the most well-known celebrities in Hollywood, but that doesn’t mean she's talented. Sure, she’s a business woman; she has her own TV show, her own perfume and her own sex tape, but does that really mean she deserves all the limelight?
Let's be honest, Paris is only famous because she was good looking and did a sex-tape. That's it.
Her fame hasn't come from fortune, more One Night in Paris. As a result, she's not exactly socially adept to typical normality.
An example of this would be when she was convicted of driving without a license back in 2007. She was given a suspended 45-day sentence, and it was world-wide news.
But what does Paris do? Does she sit back and ponder on her stupidity? Of course not! What she does is continue to drive anyway! She's the heiress of the Hilton Empire; she can do as she pleases!
Well, in reality, she actually can't. The police pulled her over again and she got herself into even more trouble. Shame.
George Michael crashed his Range Rover in London.
Ex-Wham!
Singer George Michael has been in-and-out of the public consciousness for a good decade now.
He’s famous for being one of the UK’s most successful artists, but he's also infamous for his drugs and driving habits.
Unfortunately for George, when he does go a bit mad, it’s usually headline news. And that point was proven back in 2006 when George crashed his Range Rover in London.
A Good Samaritan found him and subsequently called the police – which we're sure he wouldn’t have been too pleased about. Why? Simple; because the police found cannabis and GHB on his person and, rather worryingly, sex toys in the trunk.
Lindsay Lohan was caught texting while driving.
Lindsay Lohan was on her way to international stardom a few years ago, and now, despite her obvious acting talent, most people just know her as a girl who struggles with drugs and alcohol.
It’s a sad state of affairs, and while she may be having her problems, that doesn’t excuse texting behind the wheel. Surely, these celebrities realize that we know who they are.
They are famous! With fame, comes attention, and if you’re not intelligent enough to realize that, perhaps you should give it up.
