Pienaar Pleads Guilty to DUI
09 03.10
South Africa international Steven Pienaar has been banned from driving for 12 months and fined 1,000 pounds ($1,496) after pleading guilty to drunk driving.
Pienaar was also ordered to pay a 100 pound ($150) fine on Tuesday for failing to obey a traffic signal.
The 27-year-old Everton midfielder was stopped by police on Feb. 21, the day after his club’s 3-1 win over Manchester United at Goodison Park. He was found to be nearly twice the legal limit.
The South African starred in Everton’s 5-1 win over Hull City on Sunday and is expected to be a key member of the host’s team at the 2010 World Cup later this year.
