I had a reckless driving ticket that got reduced to a exhibition of speed. I ended up with 2 points on my record and wasn't eligible for traffic school. I think I paid a $300 fine too, but I didn't lose my car.

Had one on my cbr, was passing multiple cars on baseline and one was a snitch ass undercover. Radioed it out and Roseville pd swarmed me in town. Plead not guilty, get a lawyer or pubic defender and try to plea for a lower charge. Ended up having 40 hours community service and a fine. No big deal

I got an exhibition of speed ticket once. I fought it and won. It all depends on what exactly you did as the legal definition of EOS is pretty narrow.

I talked the cop who pulled me over into making it "unsafe starting" on the ticket, haha.

It has been years since I got mine. But it was 2 points, $300 fine, and iirc 5 years on my record. But this was like 7-8 years ago. So maybe they leave it on your record longer...

Never had one but 13 years ago I was handed a ticket for (observed) 108 MPH on HWY 4. Clocked me at 85. 2 points, no traffic school, $280 fine. Didn't lose my car or go to jail. My first ticket and won't forget it. Guess I got a slap on the wrist compared to just being caught spinning a donut.

so I received a letter in the mail and it is from the citing officer saying my exhibition od speed was changed to a reckless driving do you think jail time is involved? I'm going to be honest initially I was evading the police and came to my sences shortly pulled over but I was not charged with evading the police..

I think a wreckless driving charge is less of an offense than EOS

That new charge sounds like a misdemeanor instead of an infraction.
Edit: Internet lawyers say reckless driving is a lesser offense. Lower fine, less jail time and no community service. EOS higher fines, more jail time and community service.
Also they're both criminal charges neither are infractions.
Get a lawyer if you don't want to go to jail, since it's a possibility. [ 2015-10-27, 05:59 AM: Message edited by: stanger00 ]
