In the April incident, Bynes allegedly hit a BMW on an L.A. freeway and then drove off. In the other case, the actress allegedly left the scene of an accident without exchanging information with the other driver after a rear-end collision. Each charge carries a maximum sentence of six months in jail and a $1000 fine.
