What punishment may a driver face for violating transportation regulations and causing a major accident with great loss of public or private property?

ANSWER · B

Per Article 133 of the "Amendment to the Criminal Law of the People's Republic of China", anyone who violates traffic and transportation management regulations, causing a major accident resulting in serious injury, death, or great loss of public or private property, shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years or criminal detention; anyone who causes a traffic accident and then flees or has other particularly heinous circumstances shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of three to seven years; anyone whose flight causes death shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than seven years. The question mentions "great loss of public or private property," so the driver shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years or detention.
