Charged with Reckless Driving? Our Aurora Criminal Defense Lawyer Can Help

The basic allegation of reckless driving, according to state law, is that you "threatened the safety and wellbeing of other motorists and/or pedestrians with a willful and wanton disregard." Because it puts other people at risk, reckless driving is punished with very harsh penalties.
