Michelle Rodriguez grumpied about her DD convictions which costs her a house and 28-acres of land and strained her patience in rehab.
Michelle Rodriguez holds everyone but herself responsible for her drunk
driving convictions.
The 'Lost' star, who was convicted of the offence in 2004 and 2005,
expressed her disgust at driving regulations and the restrictions she faces
on her personal blog.
She wrote: "At 15 miles an hour, never killed a pot head. We get stopped
driving 15 miles an hour down a 35-40 mph road.
"I cry, this sucks a**. I hire some lawyer from Hawaii, lose my 28 acres of
land and my home in Jersey paying him off, just so I can get the same
treatment I would have gotten from a public defender."
Michelle was fined, imprisoned and ordered to carry out community service
and attend rehabilitation after being found guilty of driving under the
influence of alcohol.
'The Fast and the Furious' actress went on to describe the strict rules of
rehab.
She added: "I realised my payday in movies was way better than TV at that
moment. I get b***h slapped by Uncle Sam again in Hollywood. I get a
sentence to wear a bracelet for three months to detect liquor content in
your sweat.
"The second day the guy calls me and says you've got an alcohol reading. I
was like, I haven't had any liquor. He's like, well you can't use Listerine,
no shampoo, or soap, or lotion, or perfume, with alcohol in it.
"I started to feel a bit like a pawn. For someone like me this level of
control just isn't necessary."
