Britney Spears is a famously bad driver and it may be an inherited trait.
According to the Enquirer, in 1975 Lynne hit and killed a 12-year-old boy who was riding his bike in Kentwood. The article says Lynne was driving her brother to the hospital when the incident occurred.
A rep for Lynne told the tabloid "It bothers Lynne still to this day," adding, "She really doesn't like to talk about it. She just wanted to forget that it ever happened -- but she can't."

Sweet Jesus, the story has finally come out. I swear it was an accident, I SWEAR! My pappy had been distilling moonshine, I thought it was water. I never meant to hurt anyone. Just please, please, I beg of you don't let Britney know. We picked the bike up and gave it to her for her Birthday. It was her first bike. We didn't have no money we were poor folk back then.
