It is the latest in legal troubles for the 25-year-old singer, who is currently on probation for assaulting former girlfriend Rihanna in 2009.
According to Los Angeles city prosecutors, Brown has been officially charged with two misdemeanors, driving without a valid license and hit-and-run, relating to a May 21 incident.
The news comes a day after Brown was accused of assaulting a woman at Heat Ultra Lounge in Anaheim, the Hollywood Reporter said.

If convicted of all charges, Brown could spend six months in jail.
