Nicole Richie DUI

Nicole Richie was busted for a DUI on December, 2006 after she was driving on the wrong side of the 134 freeway in Burbank, CA. Motorists noticed someone erratically driving on the opposit side of the freeway in a black 2005 Mercedes SUV and called 911.

After being questioned by police, Nicole Richie was determined to not be under the influence of any alcohol, but did admit to smoking pot and taking vicodin.

This is the second arrest for Nicole Richie, to which in 2003 she was caught with heroin possession. However, after completing the terms of her probation, the charges were dismissed.

Police say Richie is very fortunate to not have injured anyone with her wreckless driving, unlike R&B singer Brandy who was involved in a deadly car accident. Read more about Brandy’s fatal car accident here.
