I was given a ticket for careless driving, and was basicly let off the hook and could of possibly been charged with reckless driving. In Michigan, that is a difference between 3 points and 6. I must go to court, and was wondering if i could possibly be recharged by the judge to reckless driving.

You can be charged with something, then that charge can be dismissed and they can refile a higher charge.
So yes, it can happen.

I thought.. The main thing is.... going to court for anything... there's a possibility you could get... the full extent of the LAW! And that's not a good thing!!! But if you were charged with careless driving instead of reckless driving,went to court,I can not believe... ummm... the judge could charge you with a worser charge. What does the fine print say???

No, what will happen is, they will revise the charges before you get to court.

if you were going I do think 15 m.p,h, over the limit the judge can upgrade the ticket , but he doesn't haft to, good luck
