Drivers face tougher serious crash penalties
Beginning November 1, 2026, Oklahoma law creates a separate Class B1 felony for drivers who violate 47 O.S. § 11-902(A) and cause a crash that seriously injures someone else. A conviction carries 4–20 years in prison and a fine up to $5,000. The injury must involve a serious compound bone fracture, long-lasting and obvious disfigurement, or a substantial risk of death. Long-lasting loss or reduced function of a body part, organ, or mental ability also qualifies. Existing penalties for other personal injury crashes under this section remain: a first conviction is a misdemeanor carrying 90 days–1 year in county jail and a fine up to $2,500. A repeat conviction is a Class B5 felony carrying 1–5 years in prison and a fine up to $5,000. Repeat status applies after a prior conviction under this subsection or Section 11-902.
