BEST CASE - you get a one finger salute from other drivers and arrive at your destination 30 seconds before the other drivers.
WORST CASE - you kill someone. |

A serious accident. People could get injured or killed. If there's an accident, you may lose your driver license depending on state laws.
If there isn't an accident, you'll get a ticket. You'll always want to fight a reckless driving ticket. If you're found guilty of reckless driving, you'll have to pay a big fine and you'll lose 6 points on your driver license. If you are a new driver, you may get your license suspended for 30 days, 90 days, 6 months, or until you're 18 or 21 depending on state laws.
Also, your insurance rates would skyrocket. |

I once got written up for "wreckless" driving, which should have been a good thing, but I still had to pay $80. |

Depends on where you are from but here is one example........
Reckless driving is a misdemeanor charge carrying imprisonment for five to 90 days, a fine of $145 to $1,000, or both.
If someone was hurt or killed as a result of the reckless driving, or if you have a prior reckless driving conviction on your record, those penalties can increase.
In addition, the DMV will put two points on your driver's license and may count a conviction against you in any future license suspension hearing or other legal proceeding.
Your automobile insurance may be cancelled or the premium dramatically increased after a conviction for reckless driving. |
