Britney Spears griped to the California cops who collared her for suspected DUI in March that her mother, Lynne, got off scot-free after having “killed a man,” according to police footage.

After one of the officers tells the “Toxic” singer, 44, that it is “extremely dangerous to drive under the influence of alcohol or drugs or both,” she responds, per TMZ, “Yes, sir, I know. My mom actually killed a man on a bike, but I never did that before,” the video shows.

In the clip, Britney further bellyaches, “And nothing happened to her! … Why didn’t they arrest her? How come my mom got away with everything?” In Lynne’s 2008 memoir, Through the Storm, she recounts a fatal traffic incident in 1975 in which she accidentally hit and killed Anthony Winter, 12, while bringing her brother to a hospital in Kentwood, La.

“The roads were slick with rain, and as I was rounding the curve, an oncoming car was coming in the left lane,” Lynne wrote in her book, according to Page Six.

Britney’s mom, who was never charged, further recounts, per Page Six: “In a split second I could see two young boys riding their bikes on the road. In that flash of time, I had a sick sensation that I would hit one of them, that it would be impossible not to, as I knew my car would not stop, no matter how hard I slammed on the brakes. One boy managed to get his bike out of the way, but his friend, a 12-year-old boy whose house was right by the scene of the accident, was hit.”

In the police video shared by TMZ, Britney also alleges that Lynne “tried to kill” her.

As the National Enquirer previously reported, Britney was busted on March 4 in Ventura County after someone called 911 to report an erratic driver. The songbird was the car’s sole occupant and reportedly failed a field sobriety test.

The arrest footage appears to show Britney bragging: “I could probably drink four bottles of wine and take care of you. I’m an angel.”

The hitmaker ultimately pleaded guilty to violating the state’s wet reckless law and was sentenced to 12 months of probation. She was also ordered to complete a DUI class and pay state-mandated fines, per NBC News.

In a statement issued on May 4, shared by NBC, Michael A. Goldstein — Spears’ attorney, who appeared in court on her behalf — said, “Through her plea today, Britney has accepted responsibility for her conduct.”
