Spears was taken into custody, handcuffed, booked and released. This is what's typically known as "cite and release" Instead of being remainin in detention, the individual receives a written notice to appear in court on a specified date. Britney's date is May 4, 2026.

The 44-year-old singer entered the facility, with reports suggesting she may stay beyond the typical 30 days. She was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence of drugs/alcohol, after police received reports of erratic driving. Police say a substance found in the car was sent in for toxicology.
