A reckless driving charge blows! I got arrested and slapped with one in Snyder, TX. Judge was a total dick. Had to hire an atty. Did 12 months probation with a large fine and it was still on my record as "reckless conduct." Somehow they entered it that way instead of reckless driving. I didn't know it was showing on my record and it came up in a background search which prevented me from getting the position. Later I figured it out and had to hire another atty to "suppress" the information. It couldn't be removed entirely. Definitely not worth the hassles for the way I was driving.
