Whitney Houston Hits Bus

Singer unharmed, but her Porsche wasn't so lucky.

Whitney Houston hit a city bus with her sports car near her home in Alpharetta, Georgia, on Wednesday and walked away unscathed.

The singer's Porsche, however, wasn't as lucky. The accident, which occurred around 5 p.m. as Houston was pulling out of a shopping center, left the bus with no noticeable nick, but damaged the bumper of her car, according to Alpharetta Police Department Officer Tom Patton.

As Houston was backing out of the shopping center's parking lot, a city bus was traveling down North Point Parkway, slowing down as it approached a bus stop. Houston misjudged the clearance between her car and the bus and clipped the bus' right fender with the right corner of her bumper.

Houston, who lives with husband Bobby Brown near the site of the accident, was cited for failure to yield while entering a roadway, a low-level moving violation in Georgia.
