Actress Rebecca Broussard was sentenced to five days in jail and three years of probation on Monday after pleading no contest to a drinking and driving felony charge.
Superior Court Judge Katherine Mader also ordered Broussard, charged under the name Rebecca Kelly, to perform 30 days of state highway cleanup, participate in a hospital and morgue "Scared Straight" program and undergo an alcohol treatment program, said Sandi Gibbons, a spokeswoman for the district attorney's office.
A second DUI charge was dismissed.
Attempts to find a phone listing for Broussard were unsuccessful.
The charges stemmed from an August collision near Los Angeles International Airport.
Broussard, 45, is the mother of Jack Nicholson's two teenage children. Her movie credits include Nicholson titles "The Two Jakes" and "Mars Attacks!"
