New York City Reckless Driving (V.T.L. 1212) Defense Attorney

Reckless driving is commonly charged as a catch-all vehicular offense. Usually, drivers charged with this offense are facing allegations of running lights, speeding, improper lane changes, and other more minor traffic infractions. Reckless driving is an unclassified misdemeanor which means that it, unlike a minor traffic violation, can lead to a permanent criminal record. Additionally, a conviction results in five (5) points on your license, auto insurance increases and a fine. The court can also suspend your license and put you in jail. Although it's rare to face incarceration for a first time reckless driving offence, the judge has the power to do so if he/she is concerned over public safety or wants to make an example. Your reckless driving case may be pending as a criminal court complaint or a summons. In either instance, immediate action is necessary to protect your rights. Lance L. Fletcher has successfully defended numerous reckless driving cases. Call (212) 619-3900 for a free case evaluation.
