There's not much you can do when a 57-year-old jaywalker steps out in front of your speed-limit-abiding SUV. Except kill her. That's exactly what director John Singleton, the man behind Boyz N the Hood and 2 Fast 2 Furious, did this weekend in Los Angeles. Singleton's not the first Hollywood insider to use his car as a deadly weapon—in fact, the crash initiates him into an exclusive Tinsletown club of auto-wielding killers.

Other members include Brandy "Don't call me Moesha" Norwood, who rammed a car with her Land Rover last year, killing the driver. The woman's two sons have since filed a wrongful death suit against Brandy, seeking $50 million.

Just weeks before, Prison Break actor Lane Garrison was involved in a deadly crash that killed a passenger in the car he was driving. Garrison would eventually plead guilty to vehicular manslaughter, a charge that arose once it was revealed that he was driving drunk. He's still awaiting sentencing.

Five years earlier, Noxema girl Rebecca Gayheart got antsy while driving through Hollywood, tried to pass some cars, and killed a 9-year-old boy on his way home from school. She would later be charged with vehicular manslaughter, and receive three years probation.

Way back in 1987, a fresh-faced Matthew Broderick helped start the trend of killing people in car crashes. Broderick took his talents overseas to Ireland where, in a car with actress Jennifer Grey, he was involved in a crash that killed two women. He wasn't charged, but did pay $175 to the victims' families.
