Vehicular Manslaughter

Vehicular manslaughter is the unintentional killing of another human being using a motor vehicle.  When an innocent person is killed in any kind of motor vehicle accident involving negligence on the part of another driver, it may be considered vehicular manslaughter.  When a person commits vehicular manslaughter, two types of legal actions may be brought against them.  First, the person accused of committing vehicular manslaughter will face criminal charges for the offense.  Second, the accused will face a civil lawsuit if the family members of the deceased choose to sue for damages related to the death of their loved one.
