| IF YOU HAVE BEEN CHARGED WITH A RECKLESS DRIVING TICKET YOU COULD GO TO JAIL FOR UP TO 60 DAYS ON A FIRST OFFENSE |
In New Jersey, Reckless Driving may seem like an ordinary ticket but it is an offense that carries for a
First offense 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 and points then even the
fine, thus the reason for the relatively low fine but high points and 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 help. Call our
office at 1-800-9-RIGHTS or (732) 257-5040 to setup a free in office consultation to find out how we can

Even if you don't get jail or get your license suspended, the 5 Points given with a Reckless Driving ticket
can easily cost up to $4,000.00 on your insurance over the next 3 years. The costs of hiring our firm to
defend you will generally be much less than the cost of your insurance increase due to a reckless driving
conviction! For most clients this fact alone may be the reason to hire our firm!
