Vehicular Assault in the First Degree is a serious criminal charge in New York State (NYS) that is distinct from common vehicular assault offenses. This specific charge is related to cases where a person is accused of causing serious physical injury to another individual while operating a motor vehicle and being under the influence of alcohol or drugs. It falls under the broader category of vehicular crimes, which encompass offenses involving vehicles, and is considered a more severe offense due to the significant harm caused.

Vehicular Assault in the Second Degree is a significant criminal charge in New York State (NYS) that relates to accidents involving motor vehicles resulting in injuries to individuals. This offense falls under the broader category of vehicular crimes and is considered a less severe charge than Vehicular Assault in the First Degree. The key distinction between the two lies in the extent of injury and the presence of certain aggravating factors. Vehicular Assault in the Second Degree typically involves causing serious physical injury while operating a vehicle recklessly or while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
