Actress Amanda Bynes has been accused of fleeing the scene after a car accident.

The 24-year-old allegedly slammed into a car on the 101 Freeway in the San Fernando Valley on April 10 and drove through a red traffic light to escape the scene, US website TMZ reports.

It's not the first time the starlet has been in trouble with the law – she was arrested last month on suspicion of driving under the influence after she side-swiped a police car.

The Easy A star was also stopped by police after hitting a truck and driving off but she was let off when it was established she hadn't noticed the impact.

The victim of this latest crash allegedly tried to follow the car but couldn't keep up with the driver.

But they did manage to write down the BMW's number plate, which was traced to a car rented by Bynes.

"The victim then showed up at a CHP substation and ID'd Amanda from a photo lineup. And get this... the photo of Amanda was taken just 4 days earlier - it was her mug shot from a DUI arrest," a source told the website.

TMZ reports that the third incident has been "immediately rejected" by a filing officer at the LA City Attorney's Office for lack of witnesses.
