Michigan Vehicular Manslaughter Attorney
Causing the death of another driver or a passenger on the road may constitute the serious criminal offense of vehicular manslaughter. Different from straightforward murder charges, it is generally the result of an accident or negligence, however, regardless of a lack of intention, there can still be punishments imposed. Also referred to as vehicular homicide, this crime may be charged as a felony and a conviction may result in years of imprisonment in state prison. Specific penalties will vary depending upon the case as well as the jurisdiction.
