Focused representation for serious traffic charges.
Careless & Reckless Driving
A careless or reckless driving charge in North Carolina is more than a simple traffic ticket. It carries higher stakes, stricter penalties, and long-term consequences that can affect insurance rates, employment, and your driving record.
North Carolina treats reckless driving as a misdemeanor, and the effects can be significant. Because reckless driving is a criminal charge, not a standard infraction, the outcome requires careful attention and a strategic approach. With more than 30 years of court experience, Kenneth J. Duke helps drivers navigate the legal process and identify realistic, effective options for reducing or resolving the charge.
