Waltrip in Accident

Michael Waltrip's season just keeps getting more challenging with every turn of the wrench, or late night road, as the case may be.

Mikey has been charged with reckless driving and failing to report an accident after hitting a telephone pole and rolling his car about a mile from his home over the weekend. (That's probably the only pole he'll get this year!)

Waltrip, who suffered scratches to his arms, hands and face and cuts on his finger, said he fell asleep at the wheel right before he wrecked his Toyota Land Cruiser early Saturday morning. He left the scene of the accident and walked the rest of the way home. (Well, at least he was driving a Toyota, and not caught driving a chevy!!)

Police found him at his house about six hours after finding the car at the accident scene.
