Amanda Bynes and Her Fifth Vehicle Accident

Amanda Bynes was reportedly involved in another vehicle accident. It was actually her fifth accident this year, starting from the first incident in March wherein she fled the scene while a cop was writing her a ticket for driving while talking on her cell phone.

According to reports, Bynes was driving along San Fernando Valley at around 8 o’clock in the evening last August 21 when her car was rear-ended by another vehicle.

In a situation like this, the driver of the vehicle that rear-ended the other vehicle is usually declared to be at fault. However, in Bynes’ case, the other driver claimed that the ex-Nickelodeon star caused the minor car vehicle accident by driving recklessly.

Shortly thereafter, police arrived at scene but no one was ticketed, reports said.

Apparently, Bynes has some poor luck when it comes to driving. Last April, she was first involved in a minor car accident. In May, the actress has been twice involved in a hit-and-run incident and for this month, this is likewise her second car accident.

Consequently, Bynes was charged with driving under the influence and is also under investigation for one of the above-said hit-and-run incidents.

A personal injury lawyer in Los Angeles witnessed how people theorized that the young actress should probably consider having her own driver since it is not only once or twice that she got involved in a vehicle accident. Consequently, people wish for her safety while on the road.

Moreover, this makes Bynes among the most troubled Hollywood stars of today who are making headlines with regard to traffic misfortunes.

Food Network’s Marc Summers Seriously Injures Face after Vehicle Accident

More than a week ago, the Food Network star/producer Marc Summers was reportedly involved in a vehicle accident that seriously injured his face.

According to reports, the 60-year-old star, who is currently hosting The Food Network’s television show, “Unwrapped,” was riding in a passenger taxi cab in Philadelphia when the cab driver lost control of the vehicle and hydroplaned. As a result of which, Summers’ head slammed against the plastic divider between the cab’s front and back seats, which severely damaged his face. 

Fortunately for him, he did not sustain brain injury. However, he underwent a four-hour plastic surgery following the incident. Although the host was still in tremendous pain, he said that his surgeon was confident that the lengthy procedure was successful.

In an interview which was quoted herein, Summers said that everything went back into proper place and in a few weeks from now, the swelling will be gone and he’ll be a new guy.

At present, while Summers is still having difficulty chewing solid foods, he is already on a mission, and that is to prevent similar types of accidents from happening to anyone else. In fact, in his tweet quoted below, he said:

"Appreciate all the good wishes from everyone. Pain a little less each day. Will you help me in a campaign to rid cabs of plastic partitions?"

Shortly after his first tweet, he followed the same with another post saying blockades serve no purpose but to hurt people and are way too close to backseat despite seatbelts.

Meanwhile, Summers’ co-regulars at Food Network were hoping for the injured host’s fast recovery, reports said.

On the other hand, a Los Angeles personal injury attorney defines accident as a sudden and involuntary injury caused to the human body by an external factor. Certain personal injury, which is similar to the consequences of a vehicle accident, is treated in the same way as an accident.
