Nevada SB304 revises the crime of vehicular homicide by removing the requirement of prior convictions.
Nevada SB304 modifies the crime of vehicular homicide by eliminating the need for a defendant to have been previously convicted of at least three offenses. The revised law now focuses on whether the individual was under the influence of alcohol or a controlled substance, had a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08 or more, or was otherwise impaired, and caused the death of another person while driving or in actual physical control of a vehicle. This change simplifies the criteria for vehicular homicide convictions in Nevada.
