Establishes felony reckless driving as a crime and sets penalties and procedures for license reinstatement.
The bill amends South Carolina law to establish felony reckless driving as a crime, with penalties including fines and imprisonment. It also sets a procedure for license reinstatement after a conviction, allowing a petition one year after revocation. The court may reinstate the license if certain conditions are met, such as no involvement of alcohol or drugs in the offense. If the license is reinstated, a subsequent moving violation results in automatic cancellation and full revocation period imposition.
