What does the term 'greasers' refer to in the context of the novel?

Define the word reckless and use it correctly in a sentence. Your sentence must have a subject and a verb.

Example: "He's not as tall as Darry, and he's a little slimmer, but he has a finely drawn, sensitive face that somehow manages to be reckless and thoughtful at the same time." You may NOT use this sentence as your answer.
