Mel Gibson needs to get a grip ... on the steering wheel.
The actor was thankfully uninjured after getting into a car accident yesterday in Malibu. Vince Ramirez of the California Highway Patrol confirmed the crash.
Reports say Mel was driving solo when he lost control of his 2008 Maserati at 8:35 p.m. and crashed it into a rocky hillside. He was apparently sober, too.
"Mr. Gibson supplied all the pertinent information to the officers at the scene, gave a statement and received a ride home from a friend," Ramirez said.
"His vehicle was towed from the scene."
Poor Mel Gibson just can't catch a break these days.
Unlike his infamous 2006 DUI arrest, after which he swore at police, called a woman "sugar t!ts," tried to break a pay phone and blamed Jews for all the world's problems, "Driving under the influence is not suspected in this accident."
Mel is currently embroiled in a contentious custody battle with his ex-girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva over their 9-month-old daughter Lucia. He is also being investigated for domestic violence, as she claims he hit her in a January 6 altercation.
He may or may not have been doing Violet Kowal also.
