Vehicular Manslaughter

Orlando Vehicular Manslaughter Lawyers

Vehicular Manslaughter in Florida 

As the name implies, vehicular manslaughter is a type of traffic offense in which an individual causes a motor vehicle accident that results in someone’s death. You can be charged with and convicted of vehicular manslaughter even if the crash was a complete accident. If you were found at fault for a fatal accident, you need an experienced criminal defense lawyer by your side right away.

 At Ali & Blankner, we defend clients throughout Brevard and Orange Counties against all types of serious traffic-related charges, including vehicular manslaughter. 

What Is Vehicular Manslaughter? 

In Florida, vehicular manslaughter is also known as “vehicular homicide.” Under Florida Statute 782.071, vehicular manslaughter or homicide involves “the killing of a human being, or the killing of an unborn child by any injury to the mother, caused by the operation of a motor vehicle by another in a reckless manner likely to cause the death of, or great bodily harm to, another.” 

Unlike many other criminal offenses, there is no standard of intent. This means that the defendant can be charged with vehicular manslaughter or homicide even if they had no intention of causing bodily harm or death. Instead, negligence is the main factor in these charges. If the defendant is found to have acted negligently, recklessly, or wrongfully, leading to a fatal motor vehicle accident, they can be charged with the crime of vehicular manslaughter.

Why You Need a Vehicular Homicide Defense Attorney

The prosecution does not consider whether you meant to cause harm—or even if you knew that someone died as a result of the accident—when charging vehicular homicide. You might feel an urge to defend yourself and explain that you did not intend to hurt anyone, but this is not a good idea. 

In fact, you have the right to remain silent—and you should enact this right whenever interacting with law enforcement. Whatever you say can and will be used against you, and you might accidentally say something incriminating or that comes back to haunt you.

The best thing you can do to protect yourself after being arrested for or charged with vehicular manslaughter is to contact an attorney right away.
