In late February, Amanda Bynes plead no contest to a charge of alcohol-related reckless driving and the more serious DUI charge was dropped. A “wet reckless” charge is the lowest charge prosecutors can seek in a DUI case. In exchange for her plea, Bynes must serve three years of probation, attend an alcohol education course, and pay a fine. Bynes was charged with a DUI in June 2012 after she allegedly sideswiped a police cruiser in her attempts to pass it in West Hollywood at 3 a.m. Her DUI case was delayed while a doctor reported to the court about Bynes’ mental condition and a judge ultimately found her competent to stand trial.
