The former England footballer pleaded guilty at Basingstoke Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday to driving dangerously on the M25, M3, A327, and Minley Road before crashing on May 28.
He also admitted possessing six nitrous oxide canisters for wrongful inhalation, a class C drug, and failing to provide a specimen.
Sterling attended court in a black suit jacket, trousers, shoes, and a dark top.

Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary said the charges followed a single-vehicle collision on the M3 southbound, near Minley interchange.
No other vehicles were involved, and no injuries were reported.
Sterling has earned 82 caps for England, scoring 20 goals and playing a key role in reaching the 2018 World Cup semi-finals and the final of Euro 2020.
Born in Kingston, Jamaica, he began his career at QPR before moving to Liverpool, where he made his senior debut.
In 2015, he joined Manchester City, in what was the highest transfer fee ever paid for an English player at the time.
The attacker went on to win four Premier League titles, five League Cups, and the FA Cup in 2019 during his time at the Manchester club.
Sterling moved to Chelsea in 2022, but after falling out of favour, spent the 2024-25 season on loan at Arsenal.
During his time in the Premier League, Sterling was awarded the Golden Boy award in 2014 and won the PFA Young Player of the Year and FWA Footballer of the Year in the 2018–19 season.
He later joined Dutch club Feyenoord on a short-term deal until the end of the season and is currently without a club.
In the 2021 Queen’s Birthday Honours, he was made an MBE for services to racial equality in sport.
