Los Angeles prosecutors on Wednesday charged actress Amanda Bynes with not one but two counts of being involved in hit and run traffic accidents. The charges stem from a couple of recent crashes, the most recent of which occurred on Aug. 4 when Bynes allegedly rear-ended a Toyota but drove off without exchanging insurance information. The actress told investigators that the woman in the other car agreed there was no significant damage. If convicted, she could face six months in prison for each count. Her arraignment is scheduled for Sept. 27.
