Snooki's Car Accident!

What do you think that brace smells like?

SNOOKI ran into a problem with the cops in Florence, Italy, yesterday . . . literally . . . when she got into a car accident with a police car.

TMZ says that Snooki rammed her car into the back of the cop car, with DEENA riding shotgun. A member of the "Jersey Shore" production crew was also in the car.

Fortunately, the accident wasn't serious, but the two officers that were in the police car went to the hospital with minor injuries like "whiplash, bruises and cuts." Snooki and Deena refused medical treatment. No one else was hurt.
