Famous accidents....

I was just wondering, why do famous and rich people get into so many accidents? I'm not saying they get into more accidents than the regular person, but instead, that they have reasons not to get into an accident because they are rich! They can afford limos, taxis, personal drivers, so why are famous and rich people caught drunk driving?
I don't get it! Average people call taxis, or even hire a limo for an evening out so that they do not have to drive drunk... yet famous people who have all the money in the world get behind the wheel? Honestly if I was rich I'd probably never drive myself anywhere (just call my personal driver ;)). So why do you think famous people have the urge to drive even when some of them are wasted?

It sure seems like they don't pay attention when they are driving, but a lot of times people blame it on the press. Distractions are caused, and they wind up driving into poles and other cars. Maybe its just that we notice when celebrities wreck more than we do it ourself?

I'm not saying they get in more wrecks then us, I'm saying they shouldn't get in wrecks b/c they shouldn't be driving after drinking or partying, or being tired, or whatever, b/c they are rich and have the money to pay limos, taxis and personal drivers.
There is no excuse for anyone to drive drunk, but it's even worse when money is not the issue.

If I was famous, I'd drive myself everywhere. I enjoy having that freedom. I'd probably use limos or something once in a while, but I'd prefer to drive myself.
With that said, If I was famous I'd be in tons of accidents. I'm not famous and I've been in tons of accidents so whose to say the same wouldn't apply with fame :)
