Smith was ordered to pay a $1,000 fine and complete an alcohol-safety program. He also received a 90-day suspended jail term and had his drivers license restricted for one year.
The former Buffalo Bills and Washington Redskins defensive end was arrested on May 14 after police pulled his vehicle over and he failed field sobriety tests. Smith also refused to take a breathalyzer test at the time.
He would later admit to drinking wine with his friends in Norfolk, VA before heading home.
“I made the decision I was OK to drive home,” Smith told the court on Thursday per the Virginia Pilot. “That was the first mistake.”
Ironically, the arresting officer was convicted of DUI after crashing his car while off-duty one month after Smith’s incident.
This was Smith’s third DUI arrest in 13 years. His first case was dismissed while he was acquitted of his second.
