Amanda Bynes pleaded not guilty to two counts of hit-and-run on Thursday, marking just the latest development in a string of driving-related troubles for the actress over the past several months.
Bynes, whose career launched on Nickelodeon and on the TV sitcom What I Like About You, has starred in such films as Easy A, Hairspray, What a Girl Wants and She's the Man. But over the past several months, the 26-year-old has generated more headlines for her legal issues than her acting.
