Oh Geez, relax. He is fine and recovering. I thought the same thing…”Freeman was driving a 1997 Maxima?” WHaaaaa?!?! In fact, all things being equal I’m HAPPY he was driving a Maxima and not a Ferrari, now THAT would have been sad.

An “article” [I use the term loosely here] I read from an entertainment source threw in the obligatory “Authorities aren’t sure whether alcohol was involved or not” line. It must have been written before the Highway Patrol had released official data – so thank you for the clarification – and thanks for reading.

The Mississippi Highway Patrol stated that alcohol was not a factor in the accident, so I really didn’t get the point about the “one news source”.

Freeman had moved back home to Mississippi to live a “regular” life, or as much so as a successful Hollywood actor can be. I’m sorry that I misunderstood you. When you wrote “drives”, it seemed to infer that he owned the car. I’m sure he owns several, one of which I may have read about at ridelust, and is worth about half a million $.

It wasn’t a snide remark, I was impressed that Freeman was grounded enough to drive a “regular” car.

And when I read the speculation about the involvement of alcohol, I was a little irritated – Freeman is a decent guy, I’d hate to see his name run through the mud.

That’s all I was saying – sorry the wires got crossed.

Well, half right. Mr. Freeman was driving his friend’s car. The friend was the passenger during the accident. I suppose so far as the comment in your article about possible alcohol involvement, readers should refer back to the snide remark about the famous actor driving such a lowly nine year old car. geesh.
