Pamela Bach is being sued for her DUI this year -- no, not the one she got over the weekend ... the one before.
Mitchell Paulson claims Bach was driving under the influence when she slammed into his car and injured him.
Bach -- David Hasselhoff's ex -- pled no contest to the DUI -- which occurred in March -- and was placed on probation.
As we first reported Bach was arrested Saturday night for DUI, blowing a .13 and a .14. She will likely go to jail for the repeat offense. A law enforcement source tells TMZ Pamela was "hammered" behind the wheel.
As for the lawsuit ... Paulson is seeking unspecified damages.
David Hasselhoff'sex-wife, Pamela Bach, had her own issues with alcohol last night -- we've learned she was arrested for DUI ... and she will probably do jail time.
According to law enforcement sources, Bach took a breathalyzer test and blew a .14 and a .13.
She was taken to Van Nuys where she was booked and released. Bach tells TMZ, "I am remorseful and mortified. I am going through a really difficult time between David being in the hospital and dealing with the divorce." By the way, the divorce was final in 2007.
Bach added that she was trying to comfort her daughters earlier in the evening, then went to dinner where she had a few drinks.
According to official documents, bail was set at $15,000. Bach said she was released on her own recognizance and will attend an AA meeting today.
Bach was busted for DUI in March, 2009, pled no contest and was placed on probation. A second DUI in California gets you mandatory jail time.
UPDATE 5:55 PM ET: We just got off the phone with Pamela. She says she's on the way to an AA meeting right now. She says her girls "love and support her."
TMZ has learned an ambulance was called to the home of David Hasselhoff on Friday -- and this video might give us a glimpse as to why.
The Hoff -- who has been battling problems with alcohol for years -- arrived at LAX on Wednesday looking ... well, like he enjoyed the flight. His driver got into it with the freelance photog who took the video -- but The Hoff just kept grinning and saying, "It's all good."
Just two days later, an ambulance was called to his home and someone -- local fire department wouldn't confirm who -- was transported to the hospital. Coincidence?
We reached out to David's people -- never heard back.
David Hasselhoff's ex-wife Pamela Bach was spotted leaving a local hospital yesterday with the two daughters she shares with The Hoff -- even though they all claimed he wasn't there.
While the LA County Fire Department confirms someone was transported from David's home on Friday, they won't confirm who. David's daughter Hayley (not pictured) told paps at the scene, "He's not here ... He's completely fine."
We're still waiting to hear back from Hoff's people.
TMZ has learned former actress and Whitesnake video vixen Tawny Kitaen has been charged with DUI after her September arrest in Newport Beach, California.
Sources tell us Tawny is believed to have been under the influence of prescription drugs when she was pulled over at 3:00 PM on Sept. 16.
If convicted, she faces up to six months in jail and a $1,000 fine.
John Kerry's daughter is free and clear this morning... because the L.A. City Attorney has decided not to prosecute her for DUI -- that's what law enforcement sources tell TMZ.
TMZ broke the story Alexandra Forbes Kerry was busted by the LAPD early Thursday morning, but her blood alcohol level was .06 ... under the legal limit of .08.
The City Attorney typically doesn't prosecute cases with a .06 ... so the decision to reject the case is pretty routine.
UPDATE 6:40 PM EST: Senator Kerry has released the following statement: "I'm grateful that this ends a public episode we all wish had been avoided entirely or handled privately.
Despite some speculation, my daughter was pulled over for an expired registration, not for erratic driving. A breathalyzer test at the police station revealed she was under the legal limit.
She was released a short time later, not at 5:30 AM or after being held overnight as some reported.
While she regrets driving with an expired registration, and takes full responsibility for it, that mistake should never have been compounded by erroneous reports suggesting she was driving drunk."
Senator John Kerry is on his daughter's team over her DUI arrest this morning in L.A. But he seems to ignore an important fact -- cops claim she was impaired and that's why they busted her.
The Senator points out that Alexandra blew under California's legal limit of .08. He also says she was not pulled over for drunk driving but rather expired tags.
Kerry's rep says, "Senator Kerry supports his daughter and will have no further comment on a private matter."
But here's the deal. The Senator didn't mention Alexandra flunked the field sobriety test and that's why cops arrested her. Also in California, you don't need a .08 to be driving under the influence. A sip of wine could do the trick if you can't handle it when you get behind the wheel.
But law enforcement sources tell us it's unlikely prosecutors will file charges.
Senator John Kerry's daughter, Alexandra Forbes Kerry, was arrested early this morning on suspicion of DUI ... law enforcement sources tell TMZ.
It went down in Hollywood at 12:40 AM. Alexandra, a 36-year-old film producer and director, was pulled over for a traffic stop, then arrested and booked at LAPD's Hollywood station. She was released at 5:25 AM.
Cops tell us Alexandra violated a traffic law which got their attention. They then conducted a field sobriety test and it appeared she was under the influence of an intoxicant. She was then placed under arrest. At that point, cops asked her to take a preliminary alcohol screening test in the field, but she refused.
Cops took her to the station and then conducted a formal blood alcohol test which showed a level of .06. Under California law, the legal limit is .08, but a driver can still be prosecuted -- even under a .08 reading -- if the vehicle is being operated unsafely due to alcohol. The inside word -- the L.A. City Attorney probably won't prosecute Alexandra because generally they won't go after people with under a .08 unless the driving is really crazy.
By the way Johnny Depp stumbled out of a NYC restaurant last night -- and then had to be carried into his car -- it seems the guy was really into celebrating his Sexiest Man Alive victory.
Heeeeere's Johnny attempting to walk out of a bar with punk icon Patti Smith.
DUIs are great for ratings -- so what better way to help your reality show then to go get one ... and then blab all about it to the network that airs your show? Shayne Lamas was popped in Venice, Calif. last night for allegedly driving under the influence -- and we know this because she told E!, home of "Leave it to Lamas," the whole story.
In a shockingly well-worded statement, Lamas told E!, "Early Saturday morning, after consuming one drink, I willingly drove through a mandatory check point on my way home with complete confidence of passing. However, the breathalyzer indicated that I was over the legal limit of blood alcohol content and was arrested onsite."
Look for a very special episode of "Leave it to Lamas" sometime during the next sweeps period.
Now there's more evidence suggesting David Hasselhoff may have fallen off the wagon again -- take a look at this video of the actor slurring his speech last night at the European Music Awards in Germany.
As we previously reported, The Hoff was drunk in a Canadian casino last weekend as well -- and had to be escorted away after getting into an argument with an elderly patron.
