help...got ticket..
i was drivin 50 something on a 40mph road when a damn popo pulled me over. but he eased up on me by giving me a ticket for reckless driving. 78 bucks!!! but my main question is, do i get points for that? thanks
Well I dont know how a cop can give you a ticket for reckless driving for being only about 10-15mph over speed limit unless you Truly were driving recklessly.
And yes reckless driving is charged with points. Four points on your insurance record, cause I had one back in the day. And them points represent Insurance Points, not State DMV/MVA points.
That ticket is going to hurt come insurance renewal time.

50 anything in a 40 isnt reckless if you were just speeding!! As long as you werent a big pr!ck to the cop and go to court it will probably get dropped back down to just speeding. Talk to the DA before court and he will plea just to save time. Did he actually write reckless on the ticket or the speeds?
I just got a 67 in a 35 (which is reckless since it is well over 20 mph over limit) and no one would plea bargain with me
sucks...
