Given the facts of a case, law enforcement, insurance companies, and potential employers are all able to read between the lines on reckless driving cases. Although some people equate reckless driving with careless driving, there is a dramatic difference between the two.<\/p>\n<p>A first reckless driving conviction is punishable by up to six months in jail. As well as, a fine not to exceed $500. Penalties on a second conviction double. Under some circumstances, you can receive a felony charge from reckless driving. On top of the possible criminal charges, there are other consequences from a reckless driving conviction.<\/p>\n<p>You will receive four points on your driver&#8217;s license. You can also expect that your insurance premiums are going to dramatically increase for the next three years. A conviction can also impact job, educational and housing opportunities. Even a non-conviction of a reckless driving charge can stay with you for the rest of your life. Unless you are eligible to have the charge expunged.<\/p>\n<p>You don\u2019t want that charge following you around forever. So, before bringing a petition for expungement before a court; you\u2019ll need to obtain a certificate of eligibility from the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. Given the number of people seeking expungements; you can expect that it will take at least six months to obtain a decision on a certificate. So make sure that you plan ahead. Always remember the law allows one expungement of a charge in your lifetime unless otherwise ordered by a court.<\/p>\n<h2>P\u00f3ngase en contacto con el abogado especializado en multas de tr\u00e1nsito de Tampa, RHINO Lawyers<\/h2>\n<p>Si recibi\u00f3 este tipo de boleto o un <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rhinolawyers.com\/es\/traffic-tickets\/careless-driving-ticket\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">infracci\u00f3n por manejo descuidado<\/a>, contacte al <strong>RHINO Lawyers<\/strong>.<br \/>\nOur <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rhinolawyers.com\/es\/meet-your-team\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">equipo de defensa penal<\/a> is a tough, thick-skinned law firm offering a robust approach to traffic ticket defense and all Florida driver\u2019s license issues.
