Boonen in (another) Car Wreck

According to L'Equipe - Boonen was in another car accident this morning in Belgium.

It appears it happened on his way to the airport.

What is more curious, is that they mentioned he had been speeding a few weeks ago and been busted driving drunk too. Not sure if the translation got in the way on that one.Can someone set it straight? Did he get busted AGAIN a few weeks ago?

Boonen has been busted twice..

"The Quick Step sprinter has already lost his licence twice this year, for two weeks each time. He was stopped for speeding and drunk driving in June and for speeding in April. In April 2007 he crashed his Lamborghini when he swerved to avoid a cat in the road.
" thanks to cyclingnews..

But hey if Boonen needs someone to DRIVE him , to make sure all is ok then I’m there.. ….

Such a wally.

This seems like it wasn’t drink or speed related though, although I may have that wrong due to my shoddy French. And the cat was quite innocent too I think, so not really related to the bad boy issues. But the other stuff, it saddens me.

You know why he crashed trying to avoid that puddytat? He tried bunny-hopping the car over it..

pounding along in three ratios like a sonata
