He’s no wiseguy.

Cake Boss‘s Buddy Valastro took to Twitter on Monday to apologize for driving while intoxicated last month.

“I thought I was fine to drive, but I wasn’t. I put people in danger. I am very disappointed in myself,” he wrote in one Tweet, adding, “I’ll never get behind the wheel of a car again, even after one sip.”

Police arrested the TLC star Nov. 13 in New York City. Valastro, owner of Carlo’s Bakery in New Jersey, had been spotted swerving in his yellow Corvette just after 1 a.m. His blood-alcohol level was just above the legal limit.

“He was noticeably unsteady on his feet, bloodshot watery eyes,” a New York City Police Department spokesperson told PEOPLE.

Valastro, 37, pleaded guilty to a driving while ability impaired violation in court Monday, according to the Associated Press. His license is now suspended for 90 days, and he must pay a $300 fine.
