How to Drive Like Britney Spears

If you want to drive like Britney Spears and you don’t have a kid yet, why not plop your dog in your lap and go?

No? Too dangerous? That’s what California legislators thought too. They are trying to create a law that makes having “a dog, cat or other animal in your lap when behind the wheel” illegal. They’ll pull ya over and then give you a ticket for $35. ~source

The best part? They’re calling it the [unofficial] “Paris Hilton bill.”

Love that.

Of course, our own Jessica Simpson is just as guilty of driving around town with dear little Daisy on her lap. She lugs that thing everywhere. I just caught an interview with her that showed the dog first on top of the table in a DJ booth (and if you’ve ever been in one, you know how tiny those can be) and another where she warned someone that Daisy might stop by and lick their toes.

V. Professional.

Apparently the idea for this bill started with “Bill Maze, a Republican assemblyman,” who “proposed the bill in April after seeing a woman driving with three dogs on her lap.”

Three dogs! Is that Hollywood or what? Of course, the Governator (Arnold Schwarzenegger) has vetoed the bill. You think it’s cuz Maria Shriver drives with dogs in her lap?
