Paul Pelosi, 86, pleaded no contest to misdemeanor hit-and-run after striking a parked car in California and leaving the scene.

Paul Pelosi, 86, pleaded no contest to misdemeanor hit-and-run after striking an unoccupied Tesla in Yountville, California on July 3 and leaving the scene. Napa County District Attorney Allison Haley announced the plea deal on Tuesday.

Napa County Superior Court Judge Scott R.L. Young imposed the maximum six-month driving ban allowed under California law. Pelosi was also placed on one year of probation and ordered to complete a 10-day work program. He must report to the Napa County Department of Corrections for booking by November 20.

As part of the agreement, Pelosi paid $11,191.14 in restitution to the vehicle's owner and was ordered to pay court fines and fees. According to Fox News, he was driving a burgundy Maserati convertible and left without attempting to identify the owner or leave the information required by California law. Deputies located him about half a mile away, and he allegedly told officers he had intended to return to the scene.

This is Pelosi's second driving-related conviction in Napa County. In August 2022, he pleaded guilty to misdemeanor DUI causing injury after crashing his Porsche into a Jeep while driving over the legal limit and was sentenced to three years of probation.
