Would you sit in the passenger’s seat of a car driven by Nick Hogan? Well, thanks to a provisional permit which allows the convicted reckless driver to operate a vehicle “for business-related excursions,” this is a decision some poor soul will have to make. Hogan served 8 months in jail for reckless driving after crashing his father’s yellow modified Toyota Supra into a palm tree while street racing. Not only did he total the car, but his friend John Graziano, who was riding shotgun that night, will now require lifetime medical care for his critical injuries. But, hey! Nick’s driving again!
The guy behind the wheel is Nick Hogan — the guy in the passenger seat is the ballsiest guy on the planet.
Nick is officially back behind the wheel — driving a brave passenger around in a black Range Rover near Agoura Hills, California on Monday night. It’s been around 18 months since Nick’s ’07 car wreck that left his last passenger and friend, John Graziano, in a vegetative state — and Nick behind bars and without a license.
The DMV granted him a driving permit last month for business-related excursions.
According to the State of Florida’s DMV web site, a driver causes a death or personal injury automatically loses his or her license for one year. However, the license holder can apply for a hardship provisional license, with the argument that a drivers’ license is needed in order to get to and from work. Are we to believe that Nick Hogan is an actual “hardship” case? First of all, what does the kid actually do for work? I don’t seem to recall him having any kind of job prior to the accident that left his friend brain dead. Unless, maybe the costly divorce of Hulk and Linda Hogan has actually forced Nick to go out and look for work? Either way, if you live in Clearwater, Florida, you should be very, very careful on the roads!

look out, people of florida!
What kind of “business” can this douchbag have to attend to?? It’s not like he has an actual job. Shame on the state of Florida. Being he is living off his Dad’s money. His Dad should have paid out for a driver!!
He just looks like a fat Eminem. I’m glad I don’t live in Florida, that’s for sure. Hopefully he won’t make the same mistake again. He’s done enough damage.
He should really have his driver’s license revoked for life!
I work in Clearwater and used to live there, too. The Hogan family is an embarrassment to the Tampa Bay Area. The kids were both allowed to drop out of high school and have no marketable skills – so their parents have made them the upstanding young people that they are. *eyeroll* Nick is living in California and I sincerely hope he stays there.
what a fag!!!!!!!!!!
This @$$hole should not be allowed to drive until his friend is fully recovered, which will take a miracle. He should still be in jail, and Florida should change the law that lets this goof drive ASAP.
I hope someone follows up on this and makes sure he isn’t abusing this privileged. You would think out of respect for his “friend” right now lying in a vegetative state he would not drive again. He obviously isn’t good at it.
oh good lord, are you kidding me with that outfit in the top picture?
bahhahaha!! AWFUL
omg he looks like a character that Sasha cohan might make fun off, lol! It’s bruno! lol!
By the way this article sounds, I am not sure it was Florida that reissued the license to Nick, but I may be wrong.
What a great guy. Is that his girlfriend? You’d think he’d put his iPod away while he was with her, or with anyone for that matter.
