The driver of another vehicle complained to the California Highway Patrol after his car allegedly was struck by Abdul's Mercedes on a Los Angeles freeway, "Celebrity Justice" reported Friday.
No one was injured in the mishap, but the driver used a camera phone to snap a picture of the Mercedes as it drove off and one of his passengers identified the celebrity.
The Los Angeles city attorney is "very seriously" considering filing a misdemeanor hit-and-run charge in the case, an offense that carries a maximum penalty of one year behind bars.
Abdul's publicist said nothing was known about any such incident.
