A Reckless Driving Ticket may look like an ordinary ticket but its not. Reckless Driving is an
offense that carries for a first time offender up to 60 days in jail and/or a fine of not less than $50.00
or more than $200.00. On a second offense you face up to 90 days in jail and/or a fine of not less than
$100.00 or more than $500.00. Because this is a serious offense, the prosecution is more interested
in the jail sentence penalties. In addition to the possibility of jail, if convicted you will also receive 5
points on your license.
Do you think thats bad? Reckless driving can be a relatively easy case for the prosecutor to win
against you. Why? Because the standards of proof are so low. Remember reckless driving need only
be that your actions were likely to endanger a person or property, thus it can include many offenses.
Example: Speeding can endanger a person or property because the faster you go the more likely you
are to get in an accident because it takes more time to brake and slow down in an emergency.
In addition to possible jail the judge does have the option to suspend your license. If you lose your
license you could lose your job, your house and all that is important to you! Don't go it alone we can

ticket can easily cost up to $4,000.00 on your insurance over the next 3 years. The costs of hiring our
