Understanding Reckless Driving and How We Can Help

Reckless driving is a serious traffic offense that occurs when a driver operates a vehicle with a willful disregard for the safety of others. It is considered more severe than standard traffic violations and can result in significant legal consequences, including fines, license suspension, and even jail time.

How Reckless Driving Is Determined

Reckless driving is typically determined based on several factors, including:

1. Excessive Speeding:

   Driving at speeds significantly above the posted limit or in a manner unsafe for conditions.

2. Aggressive Driving Behavior:

   Actions such as tailgating, weaving through traffic, and road rage incidents.

3. Ignoring Traffic Laws:

   Running red lights, failing to yield, or disregarding stop signs.

4. Endangering Others:

   Operating a vehicle in a way that puts pedestrians, passengers, or other drivers at risk.

5. Driving Under the Influence:

   Reckless driving charges can be compounded if the driver is found to be impaired by drugs or alcohol.
