"I had one margarita (and) was starving because I had not eaten all day," Hilton told the radio station.
"Maybe I was speeding a little bit and I got pulled over," Hilton said.
"I was just really hungry and I wanted to have an In-N-Out Burger," she said, referring to the popular, California-based fast-food chain.
"I just spoke with her and she's happy that the matter is over," Hilton's spokesman, Elliott Mintz, said after thehearing in Los Angeles Superior Court.
