“General Hospital” star Haley Pullos is being sued over the car crash from her recent DUI arrest … the driver she smashed into says it’s her fault he went to the hospital.
According to a new lawsuit, obtained by TMZ, a man named Courtney Wilder claims Haley plowed into his car last month while driving under the influence of alcohol and marijuana.
Wilder says the car he was driving behind barely swerved to avoid Haley’s car as she drove the wrong way on a freeway offramp … but he claims he didn’t have time to react when he saw headlights coming his way and crashed head-on into Haley. He says he ended up getting transported to a hospital in critical condition.
TMZ broke the story … cops said Haley was driving on a freeway in Pasadena on April 29, when she swerved into oncoming traffic, colliding head-on with another car that cops say was going about 60 mph.
Police say they searched Haley’s car and found weed edibles and mini-bottles of tequila … and she was arrested for felony DUI when she was taken to a hospital. Cops said she reeked of booze, had watery eyes and slurred speech.
The lawsuit also references what we first reported … cops said Haley hit a firefighter who was assessing her injuries and shouted, “This is a $400 f***ing shirt!” Wilder slams the comment, claiming Haley cared more about an “overpriced shirt” than the safety and well-being of the crash victims.
In the docs, Wilder claims Haley should have stopped driving when she got into a hit-and-run earlier that night … and he says she never should have been behind the wheel after mixing alcohol with weed edibles.
Wilder says the crash caused lasting injuries to his body and severe damage to his car, which was totaled … and he’s going after Haley for damages.
We reached out to Haley’s reps, who had no comment.
