Ok here goes,
Wet-reckless. In Ca.
The first possible reduction from a DUI charge is the alcohol-related reckless driving offence.
It is in several respects, no diff than DU
: it is priorable, meaning that if arrested for a similar offense within 10 yrs, the wet reckless conviction will count just like DUI prior.Most ins will treaat wet-reckless as a DUI.
The bennefits are that there are no mandatory alchol schools with this charge, and no manditory license suspension or restrictions.
Also , for people with professional liscensing issues, there are significant benefits to the wet-reckless plea as far as license may be concerned. An SR-22 in NOT required based on a wet-reckless conviction (unless the DMV hearing was not sucessful)
i got my info from the "DUI report" put out byDarren Kavinoky DUI defense Lawyer.
