  • 32 MPH above the limit would be adequate proof of recklessness in most places.
  • In court, the officer can lower the charge, but never increase it. like your question, if the original citation was for speeding only, then thats the case that will be heard in traffic court. The officer can do this: he can have your speeding citation dismissed and rewrite you another separate citation for reckless driving. In 42 years in law enforcement, i have never heard of this happening, but, it could. In court, just plan on addressing the speeding citation.
