Summary
July 3 brought a new Napa Valley crash for Paul Pelosi, 86, after authorities said he hit a parked Tesla and kept driving until his convertible broke down.
At least eight Bay Area driving violations over more than a decade preceded the crash, including wrong-way driving, speeding and running red lights, according to court records.
The latest incident was serious enough that authorities asked Pelosi to take a behind-the-wheel test if he wants to keep driving.
The crash has intensified concerns among some Napa Valley friends and acquaintances, who were already alarmed after his 2022 DUI crash and the 2022 hammer attack at his San Francisco home.
