What is the name of your state? New York (Queens)
I had a question regarding a summons I received. It was for reckless driving. I am also a TLC driver. I am concerned because I have NEVER received a ticket of this kind or any type of moving violation summons. The description of the ticket is for RECKLESS DRIVING that's all. There is a code which is marked and abbreviated VTL. The ticket at the very bottom also says criminal court. My question is do I need a lawyer for this type of summons? If I am found guilty is this considered a criminal offense? I am extremely concerned. I would appreciate your help.
Thank you
PS: Upon receiving the ticket the officer also mentioned that I have nothing to worry about. I should plead guilty and I will be given a $35 penalty fee. This is hard to believe.
