Question

Jenna gets fined for careless driving after the police come to investigate a car accident she had with you on Hanover Boulevard. Your car is badly damaged through no fault of your own.
Inspect and justify is Jenna likely to face criminal charges, civil charges, or both?

Answer 1

Both criminal as well as civil charges will be observed by Jenna.

• By driving carelessly , Jenna has broken the federal law of careless driving and hence a criminal charge can be enacted upon her.
• As the car is badly injured, hence a civil charge for destruction of personal property can also be imposed on Jenna.
• Hence, we can say that Jenna is likely to face both criminal as well as civil charges.
