S.0111

Failure to Stop

Introduced·1/14/25

South Carolina S0111 amends penalties for failing to stop for law enforcement signals, increasing penalties for repeat offenses and high-speed.

South Carolina S0111 amends the state code to increase penalties for failing to stop when signaled by law enforcement vehicles. For a first offense without injury or death, the penalty is a misdemeanor with a fine and potential imprisonment. A second or subsequent offense without injury or death is a felony with a longer prison term and a one-year driver's license suspension. If the offense involves leading law enforcement on a high-speed pursuit recorded by a vehicle or body camera, it is a felony with a mandatory minimum prison term.
