While many celebs are dealing with pending DUI convictions, Sandra Bullock and her motorcycle maven husband Jesse James were caught on the other side of a drunk-driving induced collision Friday.

The couple was hit by a 64-year-old drunk driver in Gloucester, Massachusetts where Bullock is currently filming a movie. Lucille Gatchell struck the couple’s SUV (the stars were not driving) at around 9:50 p.m.

“Sandra Bullock and Jesse James were in a car accident last night,” the actress’ rep, Cheryl Maisel, told E! News, E! Online reports. “They are fine.”

Bullock, James and Gatchell may not have been injured in the collision but the 2008 Chevy SUV the couple was riding in maintained substantial damage in the head-on smash.
Gloucester police arrived on the scene to find Bullock and James visibly shaken by the incident.

“They were sort of hugging each other on the sidewalk,” Officer Kevin Mackey reportedly said. “Ms. Bullock was consoling him.”

Mackey also said the Miss Congeniality star seemed genuinely concerned and repeatedly asked officers if the other driver had been injured.

The couple left the scene with Bullock’s security about 20 minutes after the incident.

As for Gatchell, whose blood-alcohol turned out to be more than two and a half times the legal limit, police say she showed little remorse and at first, didn’t know who was involved in the accident.

“After I arrested her I had her in the cruiser,” Mackey told the Boston Herald newspaper. “I said, ‘Do you realize who you hit?’ She asked, ‘Who?’ I said, ‘Sandra Bullock.”

“She was almost giggling and laughing. She said, ‘My first drunk driving and I hit Sandra Bullock.’”

Sandra Bullock plus Jesse James equals marriage.

The star of Miss Congeniality, Bullock, 40, married her boyfriend Jesse James, host of Monster Garage, in Santa Barbara.

US weekly reports more than 300 guests attended the ceremony. It was Bullock’s first wedding and James’ third.

The couple met last spring when the actress set up a tour of the Monster set for her godson.

She was once engaged to actor Tate Donovan in 1994, but has said little about her relationship with James.

“There’s a reason why they call it private life,” the actress told People magazine.

Bullock has been in two movies in 2005, Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Faboulous and Crash.
