Careless driver! George Michael smashes car into shop front in 3.30am drama
George Michael has been arrested after he crashed his car into a shop front in the early hours of the morning.
The Careless Whisper singer was caught on CCTV mounting the kerb in his Ranger Rover and ploughing into Snappy Snaps in Hampstead, north London.
Following the collision, the shocked former Wham! star climbed out of his 4×4 and waited for police to arrive.
He was not breathalysed, insisting to officers he had not been drinking.But he is thought to have been tested for drugs at a north London police station, the Daily Mirror reported.
No drugs were recovered and the 47-year-old star was released on bail until August.
A Metropolitan Police spokesman confirmed: ‘Police were called at approximately 3.30am on Sunday to reports of a vehicle in collision with a building.
‘Officers attended and a man in his 40s was arrested on suspicion of being unfit to drive.‘He was taken to a north London police station and later bailed to return on August 13 pending inquiries.’
The incident is the seventh time George, who openly admits to being a cannabis user, has been at the centre of a police investigation into his driving.
Last year, he was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence when his Land Rover hit a lorry on the A34 in Berkshire.
He had just completed a two-year driving ban at the time and was subsequently released without charge.
Yesterday, the front of the photo shop still showed signs of damage, with the door frame window shattered and wooden panelling cracked.
The shop is close to Hampstead Heath, where George was caught having sex three years ago.It is also near to his Highgate home.
Prison this time ?

No……
A lifetime ban from driving would be more appropriate.The public needs to be protected from this menace on the road.
