Question: I have a DUI in San Fernando but have heard of a wet reckless…? What is the difference between a DUI and a wet and reckless?

Answer: They are different statutes. A wet reckless is generally speaking a lesser charge than a DUI, although it is still an alcohol related conviction and is priorable for DUI purposes. Usually the overall penalties are less for a wet reckless. Some employers seem to have issues with a DUI conviction but will let a wet reckless conviction slide by. You should talk to an attorney about your case in more detail to get specifics. Feel free to contact me through philhachelaw.com if you want to speak about it in more detail.
