Reckless Driving charges in North Dakota
Reckless driving is a serious charge alleging willful or wanton disregard for safety, and in most states it is a criminal misdemeanor — not a simple traffic ticket. It can stem from high speed, aggressive maneuvers, or street-racing-type conduct. In North Dakota, a conviction adds demerit points toward the North Dakota DOT suspension threshold of 12 points, and the conviction follows you to your insurer.
Why fight your Reckless Driving ticket?
Defenses that actually work
Attorneys contest the subjective 'willful disregard' standard, the accuracy of speed evidence, and often negotiate a reduction to a non-criminal offense like improper driving or speeding.
What's at stake in North Dakota
A reckless driving conviction creates a permanent criminal record, carries heavy points, and can mean jail in many states. In North Dakota, points accumulate toward suspension at 12 points.
Prevent insurance increases
A reckless driving conviction can raise North Dakota premiums by roughly 21% — often for three years. Fighting the ticket can prevent that.
