Vehicular manslaughter is a serious criminal charge. In Florida, the maximum penalties for this offense may include up to 15 or even 30 years in prison, depending upon the particular circumstances of the crime. Did you know that you may find yourself facing vehicular manslaughter charges even if you did not intentionally cause an accident or were not driving particularly recklessly? There is always the risk that you will face vehicular homicide charges if you are involved in a fatal auto accident.
