In a nice "Whew!" moment, TMZ reports that Heather Locklear's DUI case has been dismissed, and she's pled no contest to reckless driving instead, a lesser offense that will probably only lead to probation and a $700 fine.

The Melrose Place star was arrested in September after a witness saw her driving erratically and called the police. Cops thought she might have been operating her vehicle under theinfluence of prescription drugs, which showed up in her blood tests later.
