Well I went to court yesterday for my reckless driving ticket. I was busted for driving 60 in a 35, so 25 over the limit. This was my first reckless ticket, and my record showed that I currently have +3 points on my license.
When my name was called I approached the bench, and plead guilty, the judge explained that this was a jail able offense. She in turn asked the officer if he was seeking jail time, which he was not thank god………
I did show her a copy of my driving record and several character reference letters. I also said that I would like to take the VA DMV driver improvement program to improve my record again.
She looked at all my stuff, and turned me over to the VA prosecutor. So, right now I have been court ordered to go and complete the “Driving Behavior Management Program” through Arlington County, VA. Which will start in February, and once I have completed that I will go back to court on the 8th of June. When I go back I will receive my sentence, at that point I hope the charges will be dropped.
