How fast is considered reckless driving in Georgia?
I got pulled over going pretty fast the other day and I’m not sure what kind of ticket I’m looking at. How fast is considered a reckless driving ticket in Georgia?

A great question! There is no defined speed that is considered reckless driving in Georgia since reckless driving is just defined as driving with “a willful disregard for the safety of others and their property.” However, you can certainly get a reckless driving charge for speeding in Georgia—typically, you’ll be charged with reckless driving if you go 100 MPH or faster.
Georgia also gives out
super speeder tickets
to drivers who are caught driving at 75 MPH or more on a two-lane road, or at 85 MPH or more on another road or highway. These tickets add an additional $200 to the ticket cost. If you get a reckless driving charge for speeding, you’ll probably get a super speeder ticket too.Being caught speeding excessively can cause your insurance rates to skyrocket. The
