Reckless Driving in Federal Way

Some motorists believe that a reckless driving charge isn't a big deal. However, a conviction for this Washington crime has consequences that could land you behind bars and cost you a great deal of money. A reckless driving conviction in Federal Way incurs a mandatory 30 day driver's license suspension, up to 364 days in jail, and fines that may total $5,000. After your driver's license is reinstated, the law requires you to carry expensive SR-22 auto insurance for three years.

This means that even though reckless driving is a misdemeanor, it can cause lasting damage that far overshadows its relative severity.
