WTHR | Justin Timberlake speaks out after plea deal in DWI case @WTHR13News | Uploaded 5 days ago | Updated 15 hours ago
Justin Timberlake urged drivers not to get behind the wheel of a car after even a single alcoholic drink on Friday, shortly after pleading guilty to driving while impaired in New Yorks Hamptons earlier this year.

The public safety announcement in front of the Sag Harbor police department was part of the plea deal that knocked down the misdemeanor charge hed faced to a non-criminal traffic violation. The boy band singer-turned-solo star and actor was also sentenced to a $500 fine with a $260 surcharge, 25 hours of community service at the nonprofit of his choosing and a 90-day suspension of his license.

I try to hold myself to a very high standard, for myself, and this was not that, Timberlake told the news media and other onlookers after the hearing in the adjacent Sag Harbor Village Court.

Even if youve had one drink, dont get behind the wheel of a car, Timberlake said.
