 Hi, I'm David Cantor with the Law Offices of David Michael Cantor and today I'm going to talk about reckless driving in Arizona. Now the definition of the crime of reckless driving means you're driving a motorized vehicle with reckless disregard for the safety of others, meaning other people or property. The punishment if you're charged with this with no priors is up to four months in jail. This is a classroom misdemeanor and up to $1,500 in fines. You can also get a 90-day license suspension. Now the defense is to this charge. Normally this is overcharged and it's really just criminal speeding. That means you're going 21 miles or more over the limit and the officer was mad so he charged you with reckless driving. Also you can be charged with aggressive driving. Aggressive driving means you're speeding combined with weaving and unsafe lane usage or something like that. And a lot of times officers don't know to charge an aggressive driving so they charge reckless driving. There's a huge difference because in aggressive driving or criminal speeding, no big deal, only a few points on your license, reckless driving is a different ball game. Now the defenses also include that no person or property was nearby while you were speeding and that the officer sees you from a distance and just determines, oh, you were recklessly driving, you were switching lanes and driving fast on the other side of the freeway. There's no cars around you, nothing was endangered. We also have defenses based on Miranda rights violation and exaggerated police reports denial of right to counsel things of those nature.
