Pete Davidson has officially been charged with reckless driving after smashing his car into a Beverly Hills home earlier this year.
The ‘SNL’ alum was charged with one count of reckless driving Friday by the L.A. County District Attorney’s Office, about 3 months after the crash.
TMZ broke the story, law enforcement sources told us Pete and his gf Chase Sui Wonders were involved in the crash March 4 around 11 PM. Pete was behind the wheel of a Mercedes, and allegedly driving fast through a residential street when he lost control and smacked into the home.

Pete Davidson, Chase Sui Wonders Involved in Car Accident in Beverly Hills
It’s unclear how Pete lost control, but sources familiar said he hopped the curb and took out a fire hydrant before hitting the side of the house … thankfully, no one was hurt.
At the time, cops didn’t believe drugs or alcohol played a factor in the crash. Pete was not arrested, either.
We spoke to the homeowner of the property Pete hit who told us his 16-year-old daughter was “a bit” traumatized after the close call. He did mention he’s got no beef with Pete, though — and had no intention to slap a lawsuit on the comedian.
As for possible punishment — reckless can carry a sentence of up to 90 days in jail, a $1,000 fine and a knock on your driver’s license.
We reached out to Pete’s rep … so far, no word back.
