What Constitutes Aggressive Driving In Delaware

In the state of Delaware aggressive driving laws are structured to ultimately prevent traffic accidents. Aggresssive driving is not necessarily a single act you can commit. Instead, the charge is the culmination of violating 3 or more traffic crimes simultaneously. Some of these offenses can be:

Failure To Yield

Unsafe Lane Change

Disregarding A Traffic Control Device

Failure To Stop At Command Of Police Officer

Following Too Closely

Passing On A Shoulder

Speeding Or Excessive Speed

Driving Penalties/DMV Points

Passing A Stopped School Bus

Failure To Signal

Penalties For An Aggressive Driving Conviction

If you are convicted of aggressive driving in Delaware you may be subject to a fine between $100.00-$300.00 and/or 10-30 days in jail. Your driving privileges will be suspended for 30 days. In addition you will also be required to complete a DMV behavior modification class. Since Delaware operates on a point system you will get 6 points on your license. Some secondary penalties are increased insurance premiums, possibly being dropped by your insurance carrier or an inability to get auto insurance.

If you receive a subsequent offense within 3 years the fines will increase to between $300.00-$1,000.00, you will be sentenced to jail for 30-60 days and your driving privileges will be suspended for 30 days.
