Careless and Prohibited Ticket in Arkansas
My question involves a careless driving ticket from the State of: Arkansas
My son has to go to court after getting a "careless and prohibited" ticket. He says all he did was "rev" his engine up. Is that careless or prohibited driving? Is there ANY defense to this charge?
Re: Careless and Prohibited Ticket in Arkansas
The defense would be that what he did wasn't "reckless driving" under the governing statute or ordinance. We weren't there, and I somehow doubt that your son is telling you the whole truth. It sounds like he might have been involved in a "speed contest" / "drag race".
