This bill amends existing Oklahoma law regarding reckless driving and establishes new penalties for certain offenses. It adds "reckless driving that results in a collision" to the list of Class D2 felony offenses, which includes various other crimes such as attempts to escape from prison and aggravated assault against medical providers. The bill specifies that individuals convicted of a Class D2 felony will face imprisonment for up to two years, with increased penalties for repeat offenders. Additionally, it outlines that certain offenses will be exempt from the standard penalty provisions, allowing for specific punishments as defined in other statutes.

Furthermore, the bill revises the penalties for reckless driving, introducing stricter consequences for those involved in speed contests or races. A first conviction for reckless driving in these circumstances will result in imprisonment for five to six months or fines ranging from $200 to $1,000, while repeat offenders face harsher penalties. Importantly, individuals involved in a collision while driving recklessly will be charged with a Class D2 felony, subjecting them to the penalties outlined in the new law. The act is set to take effect on November 1, 2026.
