The L.A. City Attorney had filed criminal hit and run charges against Spears. Law enforcement sources have told TMZ that if Spears reached a civil settlement, the hit and run case would probably be dropped.

Sources say Spears has agreed to pay the car owner approximately $1,000 for damage plus rental car expenses. Settlement papers are set to be signed on Monday.

Spears has also been charged with driving without a license. Law enforcement tells us that charge probably will not be dropped as a result of the civil settlement.

3. a license is a license. it s freakin technicality that she does have a license, but from another state. people drive in states they dont have licenses in all the time. what, are the roads different? street signs mean different things from state to state?

7. Now that she has all this important legal matters taken care of, she can concentrate on the mundane, her children. Stupid b;tch has her priorities screwed up.

9. Just do ONE thing on your list everyday and you'll have your kids back in no time Britney. That is, if you really want them back. I'm hoping you do. I'm hoping your mother and father are getting through to you.

Good luck.

11. the only way anyone is going to get through to her is to start ignoring her...she only gets away with her tantrums and bad behavior because there are a million sycophants ready to take her abuse--

from her recent behavior she seems like an emotionally stunted adolescent who has has her ass kissed one too many times by one too many people (including her mother who made her what she is today)

13. There is no way that her civil settlement should negate the criminal charges. Let the bitch face the music like everyone else would have to do.

14. If she doesn't have a license, doesnt that mean she also doesn't have insurance?

15. My comment to Brittney Spears!!!

Why, Why, Why Brit.....Won't you get some help.... There are sooooo many children in this world that suffer because their parents HAVE NOTHING.....They have work their butts off to provide for their children and YET still find time to be parents!!!! I think it is a travisity that you have allowed Hollywood and fame to consume you!!! If your babies can't get thru to you then I don't know what can....perhaps you need to turn to your faith!!!

While you are driving around with no panties....there is a child in a closet crying for a parent to love them...or a parent to stop hurting them..... What will your children say about you??

There aren't enought you tubers in the world to save you.... You need to find people who truly care about you and will support you and get your life together.....
