Reckless driving usually means you were driving drunk and had an attorney. I say this because often times when someone is caught for DUI and the officer or court is telling you that they are doing you a favor they change the charge to Reckless Driving. In reality, most insurance companies charge the same number of points for reckless driving as they do for DUI. You get three points for each one and there is no difference. Both are considered major driving violations and you are charges the same increase in rates but it does sound better, doesn't it.

Getting cited for reckless driving will result in four points on your license
Reckless driving is often considered a major violation and will likely get you 6 points on your license, just like a drunken driving violation does.
Usually reckless driving is around 4 points on your license. This varies from state to state and should be checked in your state.

Washington state does not assign points to traffic violations.
Reckless driving is one of the highest in points. It is right along with passing a stopped school bus. It WILL raise your insurance up sky high, and your insurance may even drop you. You may need to look into a lawyer if your driving record is not that good. Also the circumstances in which you got the ticket will play an important role when you are in court. Be well prepared for court, and make sure you have all your stuff together. Hope this helps!!! Don't know about other states, However, in Virginia a Reckless Driving charge, regardless of the specific reason, is -6 points.
