What is the name of your state? NH
So, it seems as though my lawyer has managed to work with the prosecutor and get my charges reduced to (advanced) reckless driving.
So, I've gone from facing a minimum 6 month ALS suspension, 3 month DWI conviction and SR-22 to a reckless driving charge with manditory 60 day suspension and recommendation for an additional 30 days suspension.
My questions now are:
#1 I know that I'll end up with a reckless driving charge, which is just a traffic violation, so I'll have no criminal conviction but I'll still have the actual arrest on my record. Is there any way to get the actual arrest itself expunged as if none of it ever happened in the 1st place? Still doesn't look good on a background check.
#2 Given that the charges are being dropped (reduced), if I ever got charged with DUI again (not that I EVER would), would it be a first or 2nd offense?
#3. Would I still qualify for those "point reduction" programs in which I take a course and they take 2 or 3 points off of my record?
Thanks
