South Carolina Reckless Vehicular Homicide Attorneys

What is Reckless Vehicular Homicide?

According to South Carolina law Section 56-5-2910, when a person driving a vehicle in a manner that is reckless and a complete disregard for the safety of others, and that driving is a proximate result of a person’s death within three years from related injuries. The driver is guilty of reckless vehicular homicide.

Penalties for Reckless Vehicular Homicide

A person who is convicted of reckless vehicular homicide is guilty of a felony, fined a minimum of $1,000 and maximum $5,000, faces a maximum 10 year jail sentence, or both. Additionally the convicted person’s driver’s license will be revoked for 5 years by the SCDMV.

After 1 year from the date of revocation of their driver’s license the person may petition in his or her county for reinstatement of their driver’s license.

Consideration for reinstatement of drivers license by the court includes:

  • whether alcohol, beer, wine, or narcotics were involved in the accident.
  • whether the person has served their jail time, paid their fine in full, or both.
  • whether the person’s character, driving record, habits, attitude or otherwise deem this person to not be a danger to society while operating a motor vehicle.

With the discretion of the court, you may be eligible for reinstatement of your drivers license before the 5 year revocation period ends, or granted a restricted license.

What Our Clients Say

They truly care
Mrs Vallery, who answered the phone took more care and attention to detail than any other law office, that I have called, in 2 years+. She diligently took notes to give to the lawyers and cared about my situation and let me actually tell everything without cutting me short. Out of over 100 law offices, this is rare treatment. Care. Consideration. That means more than anything going through this…

From Self-Representation to Victory in SSDI Case!
My experience with Mario and his staff was outstanding. When everyone said to give up my case with SSDI and after being poorly represented and losing. I had to file my own appeals and represent myself. I literally called every attorney in the book. Then I called Mario cold – I expected one more no! Well, this gentleman took my case and won. He knows the law and cares a lot. I am proud to call him my friend. If you need a professional to help you, call these guys.

A Lifesaver in the Courtroom, Ensuring Freedom with A1 Professionalism
Needed a lifesaver. I had gotten myself into a bad situation and the possibility of going to prison. Through the diligence and hard work done by attorney Alley B., I was able to walk out of that courtroom a free man. No tricks just hard down attorney work. She was an A1 professional and knew every inch of the Law pertaining to my case. For that, I am forever grateful.
