Britney Spears DUI Charge: Treatment & Probation Ahead

0:00On April 30th, Britney Spears, the 44-year-old pop legend, just got hit with a misdemeanor charge for driving under the influence of alcohol, and drugs in California, officials from Ventura County confirmed it after she was pulled over on March 4th for speeding and swirving on US 101 near her home in her access, Black BMW. She failed field sobriety tests, got arrested that night, and spent time in Ventura County jail before posting bail the next day. Cops wrapped their probe by March 23rd, and handed it off to prosecutors. Right after, her team called the incident inexcusable, but hoped it sparked real change. Spears checked herself into a substance abuse treatment center about a month later, showing she's tackling it head-on. Her rep confirmed the move, and folks close to her see it as a positive step amid her long battle with personal struggles from conservatorship drama, to mental health fights. Now, her arrangements set for Monday, and since it's her first offense with no crash or high blood alcohol, prosecutors plan standard handling.
