Hollywood actress Vivica A. Fox must serve three years in probation after pleading no contest to a charge of drink driving.
Loans customers may remember that the Kill Bill star failed a sobriety test on March 20th after being stopped by police in the outskirts of Los Angeles.
Fox drew the attention of police after driving she passed a parked patrol car at 80 mph and failed to keep the car in the correct lane, Reuters reports. Any future Car Loans or Car Finance deals which Fox may require may be affected by such a conviction.
Judge Stephen Pfahler ordered the actress to pay $1,200 (£590) and to attend an alcohol education programme after the confession.
Vivica Fox recently starred in Curb Your Enthusiasm and has also featured in Boat Trip and Batman & Robin.
