Any charge that carries a possibility of jail time requires mandatory appearance in court.
Even if it was the case, for you to back his claim like he was right points out a big flaw in your thinking. Assessing the risk involved for a "Reckless" driving charge is pretty standard with this states crack down that began in 2002, and has gotten tougher as the years have passed. The fines and penalties carried with it are there, wether they all get administered is up to a judge. But no matter what the possibility is rather high that you are going to recieve a couple of them as a parting gift from the state.
And again you fail dumbass. His lawyer can simply file a notice of appearance on his behalf, and at their discretion a judge can approve or dissapprove it based on the reasons. Fucking murders can apply for appearance by an attorney for gods sakes. You hire them as your legal representation. If he would have recieved jailtime a date would have been given to the lawyer for him to show-up and do his time. Happens 20 times a day in Federal Magistrate court. Now do I know whether or not he's lying? No, but I'll give him the benefit, and I simply pointed out an honest observation.
