What Does Georgia Law Consider to Be Reckless Driving?

Georgia law enforcement penalize drivers who act reckless on the road, which they consider to be any driving practices that exhibit a disregard for the safety of others, themselves, and their own passengers.

What Are the Penalties for Reckless Driving in Georgia?

Georgia reckless driving convictions are a misdemeanor offense carrying a fine of up to $1,000 and/or up to 12 months in jail.

A single conviction adds four points to the offender’s driver’s license. These points could result in a license suspension for drivers who accrued 15 or more points in a consecutive two-year period. If a driver is under 21, however, a single reckless driving charge could suspend their license for six months, as could any other offense worth four or more points.

    “Extremely Professional”
    We would like to thank you for everything that you and your staff have done for our family. The situation we were faced with was something we could never have imagined and felt extremely lost with nowhere to turn. After our conversation and then meeting with you and Shannon for the first time, Matthew and I walked out of your office feeling 100% safe and confident that you would do everything in your power to give us the best chance in overcoming this unfortunate situation. You and your staff have gone above and beyond our expectations. You have Matthew a second chance to start over and allow him to continue with his studies and become an adult. I cannot say enough about your staff. Shannon, Carli, and Natalie, always made us feel like we were your only client. The attention that they gave us was something I would have never expected. They were always understanding, courteous, and very professional. I had to learn that this process takes time and your staff was always available to help me understand and to ensure our confidence. If anyone we know, is faced with a situation that you can help with, we will give your firm the highest recommendation possible. I can honestly say that Shannon, Carli, Natalie, and yourself are angels from heaven that were sent to us in our most desperate time of need. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts
