Pelosi, who is 86-years-old, is reported to have had no alcohol in his system at the time that authorities administered a test. He was not placed under arrest at the scene, but investigators referred his case to county prosecutors and a driver’s license reassessment to state authorities.
The Pelosis were just months away from exiting the spotlight, as Rep. Nancy Pelosi has not sought reelection and will be without office for the first time in 40 years.
