Civil penalties carry fines and penalty points, but misdemeanors and felonies have additional consequences, such as loss of license and jail time. Serious traffic violations include:<\/p>\n<table class=\"table-55\">\n<tr>\n<td><i class=\"fa fa-check-circle color-green\"><\/i> Driving under the influence (DUI)<\/td>\n<td><i class=\"fa fa-check-circle color-green\"><\/i> Driving while impaired (DWI)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><i class=\"fa fa-check-circle color-green\"><\/i> Fleeing a police officer<\/td>\n<td><i class=\"fa fa-check-circle color-green\"><\/i> Reckless driving<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><i class=\"fa fa-check-circle color-green\"><\/i> Running a stop sign or traffic signal<\/td>\n<td><i class=\"fa fa-check-circle color-green\"><\/i> Speeding<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><i class=\"fa fa-check-circle color-green\"><\/i> Unsafe lane change<\/td>\n<td><i class=\"fa fa-check-circle color-green\"><\/i> Following too closely (tailgating)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><i class=\"fa fa-check-circle color-green\"><\/i> Passing violations<\/td>\n<td><i class=\"fa fa-check-circle color-green\"><\/i> Failure to yield<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<p> <br \/>\nWhen an accident occurs, especially one involving personal injury, the stakes are raised.

Serious charges include:<\/p>\n<table class=\"table-65\">\n<tr>\n<td><i class=\"fa fa-check-circle color-green\"><\/i> Fleeing a police officer that results in the bodily injury or death of a person<\/td>\n<td><i class=\"fa fa-check-circle color-green\"><\/i> Hit-and-run<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><i class=\"fa fa-check-circle color-green\"><\/i> Criminally negligent vehicular manslaughter<\/td>\n<td><i class=\"fa fa-check-circle color-green\"><\/i> Vehicular manslaughter<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><i class=\"fa fa-check-circle color-green\"><\/i> Negligent vehicular homicide DUI<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<p>Serious charges require experienced criminal defense representation.
