Two anti-reckless driving plans have cleared their first hurdle at the Wisconsin Capitol.
An Assembly panel on Tuesday approved the proposal to increase fines and jail time for reckless drivers, as well as another plan that would make it easier for police to impound the cars of people caught driving recklessly. Milwaukee state Rep. Bob Donovan says the pieces of legislation are not a cure-all for reckless driving, but he says they’re a start. Both plans face several more votes at the statehouse, but there is an expectation that Governor Evers may sign them if they make it to his desk.
