Reckless Driving Defense in Maryland

Reckless driving isn�t just a ticket-it's a criminal offense. And with new laws enhancing the penalties, it's more important than ever to mount a serious defense.

What is Reckless Driving?

Under Maryland law, a person is guilty of reckless driving if they operate a vehicle:

  • With wanton or willful disregard for the safety of persons or property, or
  • At a speed at least 30 mph over the posted limit

Under new laws set to take effect in October of 2025, a conviction can lead to:

  • Up to 60 days in jail
  • Fines up to $1,000
  • 6 points on your license

If you've been charged with both reckless and aggressive driving, your exposure may be even greater.
