Examples of Reckless Driving Behaviors

Reckless driving encompasses dozens of behaviors; anything that puts aside personal safety can fall under this category. There are some reckless driving behaviors that seem to be more common than others. These include:

• Speeding
• Tailgating
• Not using turn signals
• “Cutting off” other drivers
• Running red lights / stop signs
• Failing to merge
• Drunk driving
• Distracted driving

These are all dangerous driving behaviors that put drivers and others on the road at risk. If you have experienced injury or other damages associated with a wreck caused by a reckless driver, speak to a Tennessee personal injury attorney about the legal options for recourse available to you.
