Can They Prove
RECKLESS DRIVING (VTL 1212)
by Speed Alone in New York?
Although fast speeds can be considered "reckless" by themselves --in a legal sense, there must be other factors for a NY prosecutor to be able to prove Reckless Driving VTL 1212 (a misdemeanor level offense).
At it's most basic, the prosecutor must prove that the PUBLIC WAS PUT IN DANGER BY YOUR BEHAVIOR based on the facts.
If there are people around while you're going really fast--then charging you with Reckless Driving VTL 1212 could be appropriate...
