Brit in Hot Water by Flunking Drug Test, Bad Driving

Posted Nov 12th 2007 8:30AM by TMZ Staff

A source connected to Britney Spears tells TMZ that one of Brit's drug tests has come back positive, but the source claims she actually passed. The source maintains it was a false reading.

Meanwhile, K-Fed's lawyer has contacted TMZ, telling us he will subpoena a story we aired about Britney running a red light. Kaplan wants the tape for an unscheduled court appearance on Wednesday.

The story, which ran Friday on TMZ TV, shows Britney -- her kids in the backseat and the court-appointed monitor in the front -- blowing a red light at an extremely dangerous intersection Thursday night on her way home. A close look at the video shows that she held her cell phone up to her face just seconds before running the light -- it appears she's texting.

Kaplan has already asked the judge to prohibit Spears from driving with the kids in the car. Commissioner Scott Gordon is set to rule on that motion on November 26. The latest development could accelerate that decision. The Commish has been troubled by Spears' driving -- the incident Thursday night could jeopardize her visitation.

19. #12- Cowgirl, You are right they follow her 24/7, but you're not right about her being a good mom. And as far as a pop idol that's for the light of mind, she really can't sing. Also, if she a role model for millions, no wonder this country in going down the tubes as fast as it is. Britney, Paris, Lindsay, and Kim (big ass) have set women back to the cave days, if this is the role models damn no wonder the muslims want to kill us!!!

22. She's a good mother. She's a popstar idol. She's a lovely girl.
And believe it or not...she's a good role model to millions of people

A 'good role model' to uneducated crack-heads,perhaps. Her days as a 'star' are far behind her,and I've wondered if this reality may have some bearing on her behavior;slowly realizing she's a 'has-been'.

23. Anyone who needs a babysitter while they have their children and continue to screw up, have blown any additional chances. That's just my opinion.

Hahahhhhhhhhhhhhhahahhahahha! She is putting up such a good fight that she missed several of her drug tests! The court can't even find her, because she gives them excuses that her telephone doesn't work. Please!

26. SHE IS NOT A GOOD MOTHER. I FEEL SORRY FOR ALL OF YOU WHO SAY SHE IS. i'M A MOM AND I WOULD NEVER DO TO MY KIDS WHAT SHE HAS DONE TO HER OWN. SHE DOES NOT WANT THOSE KIDS...THAT'S OBVIOUS! THOSE OF YOU WHO THINK SHE IS A GOOD MOTHER MUST HAVE BEEN DROPPED ON YOUR HEAD AS A BABY, AND PROBABLY THINK IT'S OKAY. A MOTHER LOVES HER KIDS AND WANTS TO BE WITH THEM.

27. If she just stay home in those few hours she has her children, not seeing a red light wouldn't be an issue. But that would be an intellegent and unselfish act on her part, which she is uncapable of doing.

28. She's trying to get away from TMZ's stalkerazzi. Maybe if those freaks left her alone, she wouldn't feel the need to blow through red lights, or cover her face with her cell.

She should just hire a driver. That seems like the logical thing to do. It's not as if she can't afford it, after all.

29. You have got to be kidding me! Running from the paps? Zhitney loves the paps! The monitor was in the car with her and probably freaked her out a bit. This isn't rocket science people .... Zhitney is news because she wants to be. She puts herself out there. Not saying that the girl can't live her life but she is a Mom now and should act like one. Do you think she can go a day without going shopping or tanning? Maybe she could actually work or something. Somebody - please give this girl something to do!

30. It didn't look to me like she was texting at all... it just looked like she was hiding her face behind her phone.

Most likely the court-appointed monitor will be brought in to elaborate on what really happened since she was the only one that was actually in the car with Britney. Video is all well and good but it doesn't tell the whole story.
