Seinfeld Will Sue Himself After Car Crash

Comedian Jerry Seinfeld, who narrowly escaped injury when the brakes on his vintage Fiat failed yesterday, will file a multi-million dollar lawsuit against himself, a source close to Seinfeld said. "Jerry was very lucky not to be killed in that crash," the insider said. "He's furious that he allowed himself to fix the brakes of the car. He should have brought that Fiat to a professional -- it's simple negligence."

Seinfeld, who earned a fortune when his sitcom went into syndication, isn't filing the suit for the money, the source said. "Jerry thinks if he sues himself, he'll learn a lesson that can't be measured in dollars. He needs to recognize his responsibilities -- unlike Kramer, who sued himself in Season Five just for laughs."
