3 tickets over how long of a span? In my State, if they were in a 12 month rolling window, you'd lose your license.

You may want to contact an attorney. With this one being a whopper and adding the charge of Reckless driving, it could easily show the court the court that you haven't learned any lessons from previous tickets/fines. You should also research if you can opt for driver's education in lieu of fines. I believe it may be an option in your state, and could show the court that you are serious about not repeting the infraction.
