Since when is an accident against the law?

I don't think a reckless driving charge would stick here if he just wrecked. Like the other poster said, reckless driving to me sounds like drag racing on open streets, or passing on a double yellow. Not accidentally falling asleep at the wheel at night.

Falling asleep isn't reckless?

technically he was reckless. I just don't think it is in good taste for the state to shake down a teen over 300 dollars. I don't think we need that 300 that bad and this is clearly a outlier situation. This type of crash is rare and all the circumstances should be taken into consideration and LSP should have decided to not give the ticket. However, they are a heartless machine that collects revenue. IMO they should change from protect and serve to collect and rape.

What if the ticket has to be written due to SOP but will also be thrown out later?
