Richie Sambora was charged with driving under the influence (DUI) yesterday (22.04.08).The Bon Jovi guitarist - who was arrested last month after police officers noticed his car weaving along the road in California's Laguna Beach - was sentenced to three years probation, a three-month alcohol education class and ordered to pay fees.However, Sambora - who was travelling with his 10-year-old daughter Ava and another unidentified girl - avoided a charge of child endangerment.Farrah Emami, a spokesperson for the Orange County District Attorney's Office, said: "We felt that in order to file additional counts - in this case, child endangerment - we would have needed additional aggravating circumstances. The evidence did not support that."Ava is Sambora's daughter with ex-wife Heather Locklear. Their divorce was finalised in April 2007 after nine years of marriage.Sambora has experienced problems with alcohol before, and entered rehab last June.Following his treatment, he said: "I was just drinking too much and I needed to get my life together. I'm still in therapy and stuff like that, but it's good. I'm great. I feel fine."Videos you might like
