Anyone know what the fine is for that? Is it 2 points on your licence or 1? I haven't got a ticket for anything in over a year, what are my chances of being able to go to traffic school?

Thanks in advance.

2 points, big fine, possible impound... level 2 traffic school(16hrs -8hrs,2days) if you ask for it and get lucky

oh ya and it's considered a criminal violation...you have to go to criminal court instead of traffic court. need a laywer

guess it just depends on the cop, but those are possibilities

 

I got arrested $500 fine and a year probation and no traffic school

 

mine was 475 fine which wasnt to bad impounded bike that was dropped off the tow truck. bike wasnt released until next day cause of false charges so i got it in 2 days instead of 90 and 2 years probation

 

How's insurance after all is said and done? I've got 2bikes and 1 truck insured.

 

I dont have insurance to much money. Full coverage on my old bike was around $4500 a year but I have a DUI too so that dont help

 

i have liability for about $500/year....

if u mean with after a reckless on ur record, that **** will bump up like a G i heard, it's one of the worst things u can have on ur record as far as insurance goes, it somewhere right up there with a DUI.

didn't know you can get probation just for gettin a reckless, i thought you at least have to have like a evading charge or sumtin?

 

i pay $200/year for liability with 4 points on my record. i went with a small insurance firm, told em i had no points, they never checked.

oh and reckless will give you 2 points, and they might suspend your license.

 

its a misdemeanor and you face up to 90 days of jailtime for it. and if your case is in van nuys courthouse, you're fucked, cuz they take that **** more seriously then murder.

 

i got pulled over for barely picking the front wheel up shifting hard and dumping the clutch messing around taking off from a stop light... got ARRESTED stayed in jail for the weekend (fri. sat. and sun.) went to court paid hella fines and got 1 year probation and community service!!! but **** the cops, most of them are just some ******* haters! caue ive gotten pulled over rocking a FIB and even tried to dip on the cop and he pulled me over and just gave me a negligent (spelling???) driving ticket!!! its all what state, and what COP pulls you over my friend

 

and on the insurance part on a bike just go get it.. get your card that says you have it... and CANCEL that ****!!! unless it is full coverage it is useless!!! and if you DIE in a wreck thats alot of money wasted

 

a friend of mine got 1 and got a good lawyer & got a acd with alot of cs

 

You cant do that anymore its in the computer so if you dont have insurance they know

 

Just focus on getting that **** reduced. Most judges will put it under "Exhibition of speed" if you weren't doing anything too stupid. They both carry the same possible fines and jail time, but reckless is a criminal offense, as stated above, and exhibition is a traffic offense. And from what I know, you can't do traffic school in Cali for ANY two point offenses any more.

 

and cali cops wonder why bikes run??

 

Oh and if you're in LA, you might get the HAM program in your plea deal. Oh man was that disturbing. good luck if you do.

 

WTF a wreckles in az will get you 8 points right out the box!!! This is BS!

 

In HI I believe 4-6 based on severity, I don't want to lose my license and/or not be able to afford insurance.

 

WOW that is shitty,

 

what everybody else said. Its a misdemeanor and its 7 years on your record and two points. Get a traffic lawyer and get that **** reduced. Friend of mine got caught doing a wheelie on the freeway but got it nocked down to a non misdemeanor and only 1 point. I think he paid something like $500 for the lawyer. Do it!!!! $500 is cheaper then two points and 7 years on your record. Also check the traffic code you got sometimes they write down the wrong extension. I got one where he put midemeanor C which was wrong and it got thrown out of court.
