Justin Timberlake will not face drunk driving charges after reaching a plea deal in his DWI case.
The singer, who was arrested in June in the Hamptons, will avoid a drunken driving charge after he agreed to plead guilty to a traffic violation on Tuesday. TMZ reported.
Timberlake, 43, will admit to driving while impaired, rather than the original DWI charge, which has been dropped.
He will pay a fine of between $300 and $500 as part of the agreement.
A major component of the deal, sources told DailyMail.com, is Timberlake’s willingness to make a public service video for the organization Mothers Against Drunk Driving.
Justin Timberlake received a victory on Wednesday by reaching a plea deal in his DWI case.
A judge will decide the exact amount of the fine on Friday when the agreement is filed in Sag Harbor Village Justice Court.
The plea agreement reached by Timberlake’s attorney, Eddie Burke Jr., and the Suffolk County District Attorney’s Office ensures that Timberlake will leave Sag Harbor on Friday without a criminal record.
Burke Jr. has repeatedly denied that his client was intoxicated when he was arrested.
Timberlake will still have his New York driver’s license suspended for six months because he refused to take a breathalyzer test when he was pulled over.
The pop star was arrested in the early hours of June 18 after a night of partying with friends in the exclusive enclave of Sag Harbor in the Hamptons.
Police said he was stopped after running a stop sign while driving his BMW X7.

Police said they pulled him over after he ran a stop sign while driving his BMW X7.
Local officers reportedly followed the pop star and observed him swerving to cross the street, forcing the officers to stop him.
Once stopped, officers noticed the singer had “glassy eyes” and a strong odor of alcohol emanating from him, according to a police report.
“His eyes were bloodshot and glassy, a strong odor of alcohol emanated from his breath, he was unable to divide his attention, his speech was slowed, his gait was unsteady, and he performed poorly on all standardized field sobriety tests,” court documents say.
The father of two was given a field sobriety test and asked to submit to a breathalyzer test, which he refused.
The “Cry Me A River” singer had reportedly been staying at the luxurious American Hotel before the incident.
