Anyone ready for the Springsteen Jeep ad to come back?
Bruce Springsteen scored a victory in court on Wednesday as the U.S. Attorney dropped the two most serious charges stemming from his November arrest.
Springsteen, 71, pleaded guilty to drinking tequila at a federal park, but charges of drunken and reckless driving were dropped because his blood alcohol content was well below the legal limit. The Boss agreed to pay a $500 fine plus $40 in court fees.
"I think I can pay that immediately," he smiled, according to NJ.com.
Appearing next to his lawyer, Mitchell Ansell, for the virtual appearance, Springsteen answered a few questions about what happened at the Gateway National Recreation Area in Sandy Hook, N.J. on Nov. 14. He admitted to consuming alcohol within a "closed area" of the park where drinking was recently prohibited. "I had two small shots of tequila," Springsteen explained.
The songwriter was arrested on DWI charges after a park ranger spotted him take a shot, then start the engine on his Triumph motorcycle. Springsteen was "cooperative throughout the process," a spokesperson for the National Parks Service told Yahoo Entertainment. His blood alcohol content was .02, which is below the .08 legal limit.
"The government does not believe it can sustain its burden of proof. We respectfully move the court to dismiss the two (remaining) charges," prosecutors said on Wednesday.
