Why Can't Jeremy Piven Drive Home?

Posted Apr 14th 2008 9:14AM by TMZ Staff

UPDATE: Piven's rep just called to tell us the Bronco went kaput last night and that's why he ditched it at the gas station -- apparently that's where he takes his jacked-up ride to get fixed. We are at the gas station this morning and we're told a mechanic is checking under Piven's hood -- car, that is.

Jeremy Piven at Taverna Tony in Malibu last night, drove off, but for some reason had a change of heart at a nearby gas station, left his car at the pump and hitched a ride with a random stranger.

4. Wow.............after watching this video, I feel as if I can go on with my day! Good grief TMZ, that was a ridiculous post!

WHO CARES that Piven left his car at a gas station? If he was drunk, he wasn't driving and that is a good thing!

6. I got in my car one time after what I thought was 'just a few drinks' and realized that I was being an idiot ( if not a potential murderer) after I drove about a block before I stopped. I quickly ditched my car for a cab! Never made that mistake again and if that's what happened to Piven, Good For Him! I wasn't trashed, but I was impaired, if even just a bit! I feel bad about that one block, but I learned a lesson that I didn't forget. I wish more people would realize that even a few can be too much! The scary thing is if I had been more impaired, I may not have been able to make the right choice.

Not sure if he's got a piece or transplants....Could be a transplant.. He had something done.

8. Good for him. MADD would be proud. More people should take note from this. He did the right thing, I wonder why the paps had followed him to the gas station, why didn't you offer to drive his car home? Jerks, you would have been happier if he killed himself or someone else. Better story huh?

9. He had a hat on...can't tell.

10. He did the responsible thing! Got in the car, determined he was impaired and got a ride. Good for him.

12. Finally a celeb that used his head and realize I don't want to be the 1000th celeb arrested for DUI. Take note hollylosers, you can make a smart decision.

13. Better late than never to make the right decision. I don't really care for Piven, but, Bravo!

14. I am really thinking car trouble...that is why he left it at the pump and didn't park it in a space. Just my opinion but he didn't seem trashed...just ANNOYED at the TMZ ass following him to his car!

15. he could have at least parked his car somewhere else; I am sure the gas station owner didnt appreciate it. He was probably just paranoid because he was being followed.
