Driving faster than 100 isn't defined to be "reckless driving" in California.
It is, however, an infraction different from ordinary speeding, with a fine
of up to $500.  A first offense carries a possible suspension, and a sub-
sequent offense carries a mandatory suspension.  CVC 22348(b).

"Reckless driving" is driving "in willful or wanton disregard for the safety
of persons or property."  It carries a possible jail sentence.  CVC 23103.
(Note that this applies to California.  Other states, such as Virginia, are
known for tacking a "reckless driving" charge onto any noticeably unsafe
moving violation.)
