Reckless Driving in Tacoma

Many people believe that a reckless driving charge isn't so bad, but a conviction for this crime has serious consequences that cannot be ignored. A reckless driving conviction in Tacoma will incur a mandatory 30 day suspension of your driver's license, and you could spend up to 364 days in jail and be liable for fines totaling $5,000. Once your license is reinstated, you will also have to carry SR-22 auto insurance for three years, which is far more expensive than regular auto insurance.

So while reckless driving may be a misdemeanor, it can damage your freedom, reputation, and finances. If you're currently faced with this serious charge, get help from the Tacoma reckless driving attorneys at the Law Office of Jason S. Newcombe without delay.
