Just her luck indeed.

Hours after attending a court-ordered alcohol-education class, Lindsay Lohan has already found herself involved in another collision—only this time it wasn't she who was doing the driving.

The 22-year-old tabloid princess was sitting in the passenger seat of a black SUV when her driver crashed into a wall outside the Mondrian Hotel in West Hollywood, E! News has confirmed.

The fender bender occurred at approximately 3:30 a.m. this morning. Hotel security kept the driver, who also doubled as Lohan's bodyguard, from leaving until they questioned him and took a report of the incident while the beseiged actress waited in the car, surrounded by swarming paparazzi.

Afterward, Lohan's vehicle was filmed speeding off from the shutterbugs who subsequently gave chase.

A spokesperson for the Mondrian declined to comment on the matter.

The starlet made headlines this weekend when she holed herself up at gal-pal Samantha Ronson's Hollywood home after a judge issued a $50,000 arrest warrant on Friday for failing to comply with the terms of her sentence for a pair of 2007 DUIs.

The matter was cleared up yesterday, however, when her attorney presented the court with proper proof showing she had attended her alcohol-treatment course. Afterward, the thesp emerged from Ronson's residence accompanied by her security detail amid a throng of fans and photographers and drove to an alcohol-education class in Glendale.
