Pelosi's sentence appeared to be fairly standard for a first-time DUI offender in California, who typically receive probation, rather than a jail sentence, according to DrivingLaws.org.
"It's possible for a first offender to receive 48 hours to six months in jail. But if the judge orders probation—which occurs in most cases—there's no mandatory jail time. Oftentimes, judges are lenient on first offenders and don't order time in jail as part of the sentence," the website reads.
