I caused an unlicensed traffic accident. What is the fine and sentence for unlicensed driving?

As in your case, when you cause a traffic accident while driving unlicensed in a state of license revocation due to DUI, you may face heavier punishment than simple unlicensed driving. According to Article 152 of the Road Traffic Act, a person who drives while their driving license is suspended is subject to imprisonment of up to 1 year or an unlicensed driving fine of up to 3 million won.

You may also receive criminal punishment under the Act on Special Cases concerning the Settlement of Traffic Accidents. In addition, if a person dies or is injured due to unlicensed driving, it is classified as one of the 12 major negligence traffic accidents, but it appears that your case has no personal injury damage.

Punishment for unlicensed traffic accidents varies greatly depending on prior criminal record, recidivism, and presence of accidents. Therefore, if you are afraid and overwhelmed by unlicensed driving punishment, it is important to collect objective materials that can prove the background or situation of the accident at the time, such as surrounding CCTV and vehicle dashcam footage, and through the assistance of a specialist attorney, find sentencing reasons and establish a defense strategy.
