The CHP pulled her over around 4 a.m. and took her into custody on a misdemeanor charge of suspicion of driving under the influence of a controlled substance. According to the arrest report, the officer pulled her over because her Mercedes SUV stopped for a red light in the middle of an intersection.
"The driver, identified by her drivers license as Ms Amanda Bynes, appeared to be under the influence," the arrest record said.
She was taken to a station in nearby Van Nuys, booked and released on a $15,000 bond around noon the same day. She was described as "cooperative during the entire process."
The former Nickelodeon star also was arrested on a DUI charge in 2012. She pleaded no contest to alcohol-related reckless driving in February 2014, and was sentenced to three years of probation.
In 2013, she went into rehab, got out and was living with her parents. She received psychiatric treatment last year after authorities said she set a small fire in the driveway of a home in Thousand Oaks.
Bynes, now 28, starred in her own Nickelodeon variety program, The Amanda Show and appeared in several movies, including What a Girl Wants.
A phone message left for Bynes' attorney, Richard Hutton, was not immediately returned, the Associated Press reported.
