What Is Reckless Driving?

When you are pulled over for a citation, an allegation of reckless driving is a choice made by the police officer.

You could be cited for reckless driving if you:

• Fled law enforcement
• Committed a first degree misdemeanor with your vehicle
• Used your vehicle to cause serious bodily injury to someone else
• Abused substances while operating your vehicle

Consequences of a Conviction

As these are considered more serious traffic violations, being convicted of reckless driving could result in license suspension, mandatory driver education programs, and even a psychosocial evaluation to put you in a drug/alcohol treatment program.

You could also face:

• Imprisonment of up to 90 days for a first offense
• Fines of up to $500
• A criminal record following you around for years to come
