Pop Quiz: Name the semi-famous single car crashing drunk
He lives in the shadow of famous family members. He’s a drunk and just crashed his car in a high-speed one-car accident. A female passenger runs out of the car.

Who is this mystery person? Patrick Kennedy you say? Well yes that would be a correct answer, but this time we are thinking of…
Daniel Baldwin!

According to LA Observed:
[Baldwin arrested] at gunpoint, no less. Channel 2 News says the actor’s Thunderbird jumped the curb, sped into the parking lot of Nina’s Kitchen Bath and Hardware at Wilshire and Saltair in Brentwood and smacked into at least two parked cars. A witness said on the air that a woman passenger jumped out and ran off, then later returned to the scene. Baldwin was ordered to the ground by an LAPD officer who pulled his weapon when the actor kept approaching, says a witness. Baldwin and friend are now at the hospital. I don’t know, ya think drugs or alcohol are suspected?
From We Love Celebrities:
A police spokesman said Baldwin was spotted weaving through traffic in a silver Thunderbird. He ran a red light before crashing into two cars, including a Hummer, which was launched 20 feet by the impact. Police say Baldwin was driving the car, a rental, with a suspended license.
In March, Baldwin was charged with drug violations after being arrested in a Santa Monica hotel. Cops claim that when they arrived, they found cocaine on Baldwin and another man.
While the LAPD is getting drunk b-level celebrities off of the road it’d be nice if they picked up Nick Nolte as well. I’d feel a lot safer on the road knowing that he was behind bars (no pun intended since being ‘behind bars’ is what got the drooling thespian in so much trouble in the first place).

…Washington DC cops are smart enough to know that you don’t lock up a Kennedy, it’s too bad that LA cops don’t know the same thing is true for Baldwins.
