That dark cloud above Britney Spears' head is taking a breather...just for a minute though. According to Us Weekly the pop wreck is close to settling with the victim over her hit-and-run case.

Back in August Britney had a little fender bender at a parking lot and fled but the paps (aka: the Hollywood cops) caught it on tape and Spears' was booked and charged on misdemeanor counts of hit-and-run and driving without a valid California driver's license.

Spears plans on paying the victim for the damages and the misdemeanor could be reduced to a citation. Basically money talks and Spears has a lot of it.
