creditIf you saw the SUV barreling the wrong way in the carpool lane on the 134 early this morning, first, congratulations for not getting killed. Second, the SUV driver who's lucky to be alive was actress-sorta Nicole Richie. She was booked by the CHP on suspicion of driving under the influence, then transferred to the Glendale jail. She bailed out this morning. Richie apparently told officers she had smoked pot and taken Vicodin. Key stat from her booking sheet: the 25-year-old stands 5'1" and weighs 85 pounds. TMZ, LAT
