After crashing into her police escort yesterday and refusing medical treatment at the scene, here’s Snooki suddenly requiring a neck brace in Italy today which I’m sure has absolutely nothing to do with the two police officers she put in the hospital having legal grounds to sue her, and everything to do with her not being accustomed to violently moving her neck back and forth. Definitely that last part. Us Magazine reports:

While Snooki is unlikely to face a criminal prosecution, she could be taken to court in a civil action suit by the two police officers injured in the crash. (The officers, ironically, were hired to escort the reality star through the ancient Italian city.)
“It was nothing serious and they have been released, but they will not be back at work for a week,” a Florence police spokesman said. Under Italian law, the male and female officer — who suffered whiplash injuries and cuts and bruises — have up to 90 days to decide whether to take civil action against Snooki.
As per Italian law, Snooki — having injured fellow motorists — automatically lost her license to drive in the country.

Granted, her pain in these photos is palpable, I love how Snooki tries to act like she got hurt, too, so why make-a with the lawsuits? Because getting injured suddenly makes you no longer responsible for your own actions, in this case, driving a moving vehicle into a parked car. I’m pretty sure that’s how that works. “Yes, your honor, my client did shoot the plaintiff, but for the record, the gun burnt his finger and it stings like a bitch. Move to dismiss.”
