Traffic Crimes and Violations in Ohio
There are two types of traffic violations. First, there are traffic tickets for minor driving infractions that may not result in jail time. These offenses are serious, nonetheless, because they may affect your auto insurance rates and multiple moving violations may result in more substantial penalties in the future.
Second, there are traffic offenses that are categorized as misdemeanor or felony crimes. Most traffic crimes are not felonies, but a few traffic offenses like vehicular homicide may be charged as a felony. Even traffic crimes that are charged as a misdemeanor must be taken seriously, however, as they may result in a criminal conviction and the possibility of jail time.
