The car was unoccupied, no injuries were reported, and officials have said alcohol was not involved.
Pelosi also pleaded no contest to an infraction for making an unlawful turn.
He was placed on one year of summary probation, which does not involve reporting to a probation officer, and ordered to complete a 10-day work program. He paid about $11,200 in restitution to the car’s owner, along with court fines and fees.
A Pelosi family spokesperson told KRON-TV in July that he had personally apologized to the owner and would take responsibility for the damage.
In 2022, Pelosi pleaded guilty to misdemeanor driving under the influence in Napa County and was sentenced to five days in jail and three years of probation.
