Surpise, Surprise: Paris Hilton Slams SUV Into Honda

2006-06-09T21:45:00.000-07:00

What a surprise: America's poster girl for idiots drives an SUV-- and she crashes it into innocent Hondas, and then flees the scene. Woman+SUV+Idiocy= Danger for average citizens.

Paris Hilton had a fender-bender accident when her Range Rover backed into a car in a parking garage after a shopping trip, her publicist said Friday.

Hilton backed into a parked Honda Civic on Thursday. A videotape on the TMZ.com Web site showed Hilton getting into the car, saying goodbye to someone and backing up. The sound of a crash followed.

The video showed scrapes on the bumpers of both vehicles.

The Range Rover stopped briefly then continued on toward the exit of the parking structure.

TMZ.com indicated Hilton failed to leave contact information for the Honda's owner and thus may have violated laws against hit-and-run. Her publicist denied that.

Assclown of the Day/Week/Century Woman in SUV in LA

(thanks to ted for the pointer)

I feel sorry for the denizens of Los Angeles, one of America's greatest cities. Not only do they have to deal with horrendous traffic, but they also seem to have too many bad drivers in SUVs. Of course they come in all genders but a lot of them, based on wire reports, blogs, and personal experience, happen to be women.

Take this report from blogger iriggs:

brand new BWM SUV with dealer plates flies up on the left with no blinker on. I'm fuckin amazed that she's there, but then i realize that she's on her cell phone. She can't turn on her blinker, cause she would have to take the phone away from her left ear. I'm figuring that she's also driving on the shoulder, cause she has no clue that the lane she was in was an exit lane. So this is where it gets funny. She is slowing down, honking, and swerving directly into the side of my car like she's going to make the lane change into my driver's side door. She slams on her brakes, (still no signal) swerves and cuts off the guy behind me, drops behind me, gets directly on my rear bumper, and starts to give me the finger.

Camera is already sitting on my seat

The blogger managed to take a classic photo which you must view on the website in question (link below)

Ladies and Gentlemen, this face could be the mascot of this site. I go to great pains to explain that this is not a sexist thing, but a power issue. Look at this woman: fake lips, no hands on the wheel, huge heavy sunglasses on, talking on a cel phone. Meanwhile she's driving like a crazy person during peak work hours. Hmm why is she in such a hurry? To get to her botox doc? Readers of this website, this is the face of the enemy. This SUV is a lethal weapon on the hand of an unstable megalomaniac.

Woman in SUV Reaches 110 MPH in High Speed Chase

2005-01-03T15:08:00.000-08:00

It appears though, that the 24-year-old Random Lake woman who led police on the chase across three counties Wednesday would attempt to flee at any cost. Lara M. Strack was wanted in a string of check forgeries and told her mother that she would kill herself before she'd go to prison, her ex-husband says.

Authorities say Strack was being chased after trying to cash a stolen check at a Saukville bank on Wednesday. The chase reached speeds of more than 100 mph, and some of the officers involved from a number of jurisdictions in Milwaukee, Ozaukee and Washington counties said they knew nothing about her suspected crime, only that she was trying desperately to flee.

Women and SUVs
This is a report from the Women's Studies department at Swarthmore and sheds some light into why so many women are working out their life frustrations in their mammoth death machines. Some excerpts:

"The bigger the car the better. This size also allows a person, no matter what their size to feel big and powerful."

"the elevated position that the SUV puts the driver in allows them to look down on all of the people who are driving in cars around them"

"Is it a question of women having the same God-given right to be road-hogging, gas-guzzling, accident-causing, environment-polluting assholes that men can be?"

A woman ran over two teenage brothers after they accidentally hit her sport utility vehicle with the golf ball they were bouncing in a parking lot, officials said, leaving one of the boys with life-threatening injuries.

Isiah Grayer, 14, and his 16-year-old twin stepbrothers, Justin and Jamel Marshman, were bouncing the golf ball in a shopping center parking lot Sunday afternoon when it went astray and struck a sport utility vehicle driven by Kathy Feaganes Allen, 47, St. Johns County sheriff's Deputy Greg Suchy said. Suchy said no damage was done, and the boys apologized and began to walk away.
