Britney Spears’ DUI dash cam footage has been released.
On Thursday, TMZ obtained footage of the Criminal singer from March 4 — the fateful day she was pulled over and arrested for a DUI. In the official dash cam footage, California Highway Patrol officers are seen approaching her car window, where they asked her to shut down her engine. The 44-year-old quickly panics, informing the officers she won’t get out of her vehicle because she felt “invaded” and “harassed.” She said:
“I haven’t done anything wrong.”

She then goes on to claim she doesn’t want to get out because of the traffic on the 101 Freeway, where she was pulled over in Ventura County. The officers respond by telling her they can drive her up the road where it’s less busy, and she hits back by dealing a peculiar offer… for the cops to come over to her house for lasagna and a swim in her pool!
OMG!

In additional footage, Brit is seen finally outside her car complying with officers in a field sobriety test — before ultimately being placed in cuffs. Watch (below):
In more footage, the Toxic songstress is seen being escorted by an officer out of frame. She’s wearing a flowy dress and a wide-brimmed hat. See (below):
Honestly, this is all very sad to see! Britney was clearly in distress when she realized the scope of the situation! She’s been through so much.
As we previously reported, cops said Britney had a “distinct odor of an alcoholic beverage.” She admitted to consuming a mimosa hours before driving, but strangely went on to declare:
“I could probably drink four bottles of wine and take care of you. I’m an angel.”
Additionally, Britney fessed up to consuming Adderall, Prozac, and Lamictal the same day as her arrest. She did, however, end up blowing under the legal limit on breathalyzer tests at the station.
Following her arrest, Britney entered a month-long rehab program. Earlier this month, she ended up securing a plea deal, which, per TMZ, saw her DUI charge dropped after she agreed to plead guilty to a lesser charge of “wet reckless,” AKA reckless driving involving substances.
