The roads of Italy are safe again!
Snooki's driver's license was revoked following her Monday afternoon car crash in Florence, and she might be heading to court, Us Weekly confirms.

The pint-sized Jersey Shore star (real name: Nicole Polizzi) was behind the wheel of a Fiat Multipla with co star Deena in the passenger seat when the fender bender happened. Tests revealed that Snooki, 23, did not have alcohol in her system at the time of the crash.
The incident, which sent two Italian police officers to the hospital for minor injuries, wasn't without consequences. While Snooki is unlikely to face a criminal prosecution, she could be taken to court in a civil action suit by the two police officers injured in the crash. (The officers, ironically, were hired to escort the reality star through the ancient Italian city.)

"It was nothing serious and they have been released, but they will not be back at work for a week," a Florence police spokesman said. Under Italian law, the male and female officer -- who suffered whiplash injuries and cuts and bruises -- have up to 90 days to decide whether to take civil action against Snooki.

As per Italian law, Snooki -- having injured fellow motorists -- automatically lost her license to drive in the country.
Since the Jersey Shore cast arrived in Italy three weeks ago, they've accumulated more than 300 Euro worth of fines for various traffic violations.

24What a fukkin stupid ass hoe-bag
Why are people so in love with this girl and this show? just very curious about why there is such an attraction to this woman. Im dying to write about this on my blog. Please tell me honestly what is so intriguing.
HAHAHAHA that picture is soooo funny!
Thank god Italy knows how to mete out a little justice. If she were in America, she would still have her license, just pay a fine or something totally lame on account of her "star" (cough, cough) status. Thank you, Italy. And I hope the officers sue her behind...all she will have to do is show up for a few parties and make $20,000 a pop anyway; I am sure it's all in a night's work. God, that makes me ill.
I have put up, for years, with people who love to tailgate, even >10mph over the speed limit. And it seems to be worse in bigger cities. Question is, was she trying to keep up with those police cars "escorting" her? I am no fan of the show, or Snookie. But, it looks like a lot of you have found her guilty! Maybe a little hating going on. Bit, she is in Italy...guilty before proven innocent. Unlike you a$$wipes in this country who tailgate, every darned day!
It's the trash like this that gives the young a bad name. Stop watching her show, write the advertisers.
Why was she driving in the first place?? Besides...what happened? I haven't heard this. Oops...I almost forgot that "I don't care!"
Hahahahhaaha
What a reflection on America this pig is. If her show is a success it is because of the idiots watching it. The ones ones making her a success are the real fools.
Does Willie Wonka know about this??
"Pint-sized." Hardly! LOL!!
I hope the Italians give her the same type of trial they gave poor Amanda Knox..
Kids dont look up to these idiots. They laugh at them. Its funny. Mike"the situation" is 30 years old, not a kid.
And these are the people your kids are looking up to. Please, it has to end somewhere.
This whole show is nothing but trash!
Look at her wearing that like she is hurt... She only trying to get money from the accident. To bad it was HER FAULT!
UGLY IS WHAT UGLY DOES. I don't see anything in this two bit prostitute looking small person with a big mouth. What do people see in this twit? I watched the show once and I said if this is where TV is going I am selling my TV.
She looks like a stuffed sausage.
That is so crazyy. She is crazyy even when she is not driving a car if you watch jersey shore. I like her but that is to crazyy and the Journalists need to give more infomation on the accident and what happen. Not just that little detail.
It's honestly not even CUTE anymore...for awhile I thought she was funny..but grow up now! I mean really...act like an adult and stop acting like a spoiled brat! It's honestly irritating!! And TRY...JUST TRY to have respect for another country! I just think it's funny because Italy won't put up with her SH*T!!
