Pete Davidson has officially been hit with a reckless driving charge after crashing his Mercedes into a Beverly Hills home in March.
According to TMZ, Davidson was charged with one count of reckless driving Friday by the L.A. County District Attorney’s Office. On March 4th, Pete and his girlfriend were taking a ride and the comedian was reportedly driving so fast through a neighborhood he lost control of the car ran into a home.
It was clear how he lost control but sources say he ended up hitting a curb then hitting a fire hydrant before crashing into the house. A spokesperson from the DA’s office also had a conversation with TMZ and said, “Luckily, no one was seriously injured as a result of this collision. We know that reckless driving can have devastating consequences. In 2022, traffic fatalities in Los Angeles have reached the highest levels seen in 20 years. This is an alarming trend that we cannot ignore. As a result, it’s crucial that we take all allegations of reckless driving seriously and hold those responsible accountable.”

Luckily no one was hurt in Pete’s situation. But a lot of celebrities lately have been getting into altercations behind the wheel. We previously shared a story how singer Danileigh was charged with a DUI in a hit and run crash.
The 28-year-old recording artist, who shares a daughter with Da Baby was driving her Mercedes-Benz G550 and was seen weaving in and out of traffic at a high rate of speed, according to a Miami Beach police report obtained by WPLG.
The ‘Tasty’ singer allegedly struck a moped driver near 11th Street in South Beach — right outside of Miami Beach police headquarters, and continued on without stopping, according to police. The scooter was dragged for about a block and the moped driver suffered a fractured spine and a lacerated kidney, cops said. Officers caught up to Curiel around 16th Street and pulled her over after she initially refused to stop.
Police said that her car reeked of alcohol and that her motor skills seemed “sluggish.” Curiel told officers that she was returning from a Memorial Day party and denied hitting anybody or drinking any alcohol that night.
However, two breathalyzer tests reportedly revealed she had blood alcohol levels of .145% and .148% — nearly twice the legal limit.
