GRDD Law Partner Ash Dean Discusses How To Defend Against A High BAC (Blood Alcohol Content) Charge In Northern Virginia. Reckless Driving in Virginia is a criminal charge. In Virginia, if you drive in excess of 20 mph over the speed limit or over 80 mph regardless of the speed limit, you can be charged with Reckless Driving. The charge is a Class 1 Misdemeanor with potential for jail time, license suspension, and very high fines. A conviction will impact future insurance premiums and may show up in an employment background check. A conviction may have to be disclosed on a college application. A conviction can also affect your ability to obtain and retain a security clearance from the federal government.
