If an unlicensed driving traffic accident occurs, will I go straight to prison?

Unlicensed driving traffic accidents constitute a violation of the Traffic Accident Treatment Special Act.

In particular, unlicensed driving traffic accidents fall under the 12 major negligent traffic accidents, so you will receive criminal punishment even if you settle with the victim side.

Since unlicensed driving is considered one of the 10 major negligent acts, you cannot be guaranteed criminal settlement money through insurance processing.

As in your case, if you cause a traffic accident in a state where your license has already been suspended due to drunk driving in the past, it is regarded as recidivism, and the court has no choice but to apply a more severe standard.

However, if your unavoidable circumstances that forced you to drive, the specific circumstances and situation at the time of the accident, a sincerely remorseful attitude, and recurrence prevention plans can be sufficiently clarified through the assistance of a traffic accident specialist attorney, they can become reasons for mitigation.

For a quick resolution, it is important to first reach a settlement with the victim side as quickly as possible, and to navigate the case through a criminal specialist attorney or traffic accident specialist attorney during that process.
