Does Louisiana have reckless driving or just careless operations?

One of my workers got in a wreck and got a careless operation ticket. Curious if Louisiana has both tickets or just one.

Wrong. Careless operation covers all of those. Got one of those a few months ago for speeding.
ETA: in Louisiana, there is no difference. The only statute refers to "Careless Operation". No statute on reckless driving.

They have reckless operation. I found that out after talking back to a police officer about an illegal lane change.
He hit me with careless driving then, I dunno.
a-hole.

careless is under RS32 traffic statutes
wreckless is under RS14 criminal statutes from what I can tell

Yeah you are.
LA RS 14:99 Reckless operation of a vehicle is the operation of any motor vehicle, aircraft, vessel, or other means of conveyance in a criminally negligent or reckless manner.
LA RS 32:58 Careless Operation - Any person operating a motor vehicle on the public roads of this state shall drive in a careful and prudent manner, so as not to endanger the life, limb, or property of any person. Failure to drive in such a manner shall constitute careless operation.
14:99 does not limit the "public road" like title 32 does. Title 32 is only for public roadways. 14:99 is a criminal charge and can be applied in parking lots, driveways, etc.

Pretty sure I got a reckless driving ticket but I don't remember.
Posted on 9/16/16 at 11:17 am to iamAG
I just think they are bad drivers.

Ha, you're right. Searched "reckless driving" lime the OP said, not "reckless operation".
Touche my good man.
Would love to see them pull a guy over in an aircraft and ticket him. Lmao!

Thank you for finding that. Where did you find it? That's exactly what I was looking for. I found one site, but you had to know what you were searching for.
Sounds like reckless is more severe than careless.

They have both. I have gotten both. Careless is usually given in a wreck. Reckless is usually given alongside a DWI

LA has both. For insurance purposes, careless is a minor, reckless is a major violation.
