Shia -- I Refused WHAT?

Shia LaBeouf will fight tooth and nail to keep his driver's license, and his lawyer now has a plan.

We've learned today's DMV hearing to yank Shia's license has been postponed. Under California law, anyone in an accident who refuses to submit to a blood alcohol test generally has their license yanked automatically.

Shia's lawyer, Michael Norris, tells us he believes he can convince the DMV that when Shia was asked to submit to the test, he was in no position to respond. Norris says, "Asking someone to provide a blood or breath test while they're being prepared for surgery on a gurney is a very unusual situation."

Norris says Shia wasn't asked to submit to the test until he was already at the hospital for several hours.

Norris tells us he's asking the Sheriff's Department to turn over all videos they have of Shia that night, including a video of the intersection that presumably captured the entire scene. Norris says he wants to see if Shia was "legally arrested."

16. I read that Shia creates fake aliases to participate in online discussions about him. Have anything to say about that 4:15PM and 4:47PM?

And Shia, you're a good actor. Why do you keep playing roles that in no way, shape, or form showcase your talent? Eagle Eye blew. That was two hours of my day wasted in support of your opening weekend sales.

17. What ever happened to just getting the medical records from the hospital? We draw alcohol levels on accident victims all the time. And if we are sending them to surgery more so. Makes the DA actually have to do some work the lazy ass.

I wish I was Shia..I could use the money.. or be his mother.. or even better yet.. a single 21 year old so I could have my way with him. But alas it is not to be..
