Britney Spears Pays Up For Hit-and-Run

At least Britney Spears can put one disaster behind her.

Brit has reached a financial agreement with the owners of the car she damaged in that parking lot hit-and-run. So did Kim Robard-Rifkin, the owner of the 1999 Mercedes-Benz, get millions? Hardly. Brit's lawyer tells People that the sum of the settlement was in the $1,000 range.

The pop tart's two misdemeanor criminal charges of hit-and-run causing property damage and driving without a valid California driver's license still stand. But Britney's people say that if she actually pays up, like she's supposed to, the hit-and-run charge will likely be dropped.

"We're also working on resolving the license issue," he added. "That charge can be reduced to a mere traffic infraction upon showing proof that she's licensed."
