Britney Spears pleaded guilty to reckless driving / She will be placed under supervision for 12 months

The artist pleaded guilty on Monday morning in a case of reckless driving, accepting a 'wet reckless' charge that allows her to avoid jail time. She will be placed on probation for a period of 12 months and is required to take a course on the risks of driving under the influence of alcohol (DUI).

Spears was arrested on March 4 in Ventura County, California, and prosecutors did not specify what drug she had consumed.

Her representative stated that the incident is unacceptable, but that Spears will take the necessary steps to comply with the law. Five weeks after her arrest, she voluntarily entered a treatment center but left the facility a few days before the hearing. This situation is seen as a first step towards the necessary changes in her life.
