Chad Kroeger was sentenced today for driving under the influence two years ago.
A Surrey, B.C. court gave Kroeger a $600 fine and prohibited him from driving for one year, according to cbc.ca.
The charges stem from a 2006 incident when Kroeger was caught driving with a blood alcohol level reportedly twice the legal limit.

Defence lawyer Marvin Sterns claims that Kroeger’s belongings were illegally searched and seized during his arrest.
In addition to jail time, Kroeger would have to pay a $600 fine and one-year driving prohibition if convicted. The trial was originally slated for Nov. 23 and 24 of last year, but will be postponed until Feb. 20 while the judge makes his decision.
