New York Giants football player Plaxico Burress is in some hot water due to a car crash he was involved in last May. Last week he was sued in Broward County, Florida by the woman he rear-ended, says the Associated Press.

According to her lawyer, he was driving without auto insurance on his $140,000 Mercedes-Benz. All I can say is, really?! Didn’t you just win the Super Bowl? Although Plaxico has been involved in some other stuff lately that makes letting your expensive car’s auto insurance lapse seem like a good idea in comparison.

His insurance provider, Allstate, claims that he failed to pay his premiums. His policy expired just three days before the accident! He could’ve asked for an Allstate insurance quote and avoided this whole problem in the first place.
