Britney Spears’ March DUI arrest is back in the spotlight. Newly released police records provided a detailed account of the traffic stop that led to her detention.

The documents offer a closer look at the events that unfolded near Spears’ Ventura County home before she later entered treatment and resolved the case through a reduced plea agreement.
Britney Spears’ DUI arrest report reveals Adderall and Prozac use
According to a police report obtained by Us Weekly, officers responded on March 4 after receiving a call about a driver allegedly traveling at high speeds and swerving between lanes.
The responding officer wrote that Spears’ vehicle crossed into another lane several times before she was pulled over. Once contact was made, the officer reported detecting the odor of alcohol coming from the vehicle.
Spears allegedly told officers she had consumed one champagne mimosa roughly seven hours earlier. The report also states that she disclosed taking prescription medications that day, including Lamictal, Prozac, and Adderall.
During the stop, officers reportedly located a bottle labeled Adderall inside a purse and observed an empty wine glass in the vehicle. The report further noted that Spears’ eyes appeared red and watery and that her speech was rapid at times.
The interaction became tense when officers asked her to exit the vehicle. According to the report, Spears initially refused, explaining that she believed she had been harassed in the past and wanted to speak with her attorney before complying.
Officers also described noticeable shifts in her mood throughout the encounter. At one point, the report claims she spoke with a British accent before becoming argumentative during parts of the investigation.
Although Spears later passed two breath tests, authorities transported her for additional evaluation and a blood draw. Her blood alcohol concentration was ultimately recorded at .06, below California’s legal limit of .08.
The case nevertheless resulted in a DUI charge in April. After completing a rehabilitation program, Spears accepted a “wet reckless” plea agreement, a common resolution in cases involving lower blood alcohol levels and no injuries or crashes.
As part of the agreement, the DUI charge was dismissed. Spears received probation, was ordered to complete a DUI education program, attend ongoing mental health treatment, and pay court-mandated fees.
