Yeah, but he was indicted today and can face up to 6 months for 1 charge, and 30 days for the other charge.

vallin, i'm pretty sure he can't face 6 months for either charge.

this is non-news. when i was 21 or so i was "indicted" on those same charges in north carolina (110 in a 70 on interstate 40 at 1am). I got a $300 lawyer, paid a fine, and my insurance was jacked up for 3 years, but thats it.
i'm not trying to minimize haynesworth recklass behavior or the fact that someone else was a bad driver and got in a wreck as a result of Haynesworth's driving - someone could have been killed. On a moral level, its careless behavior. but on a legal level, these charges are nothing. Sure, the MAXIMUM punishment here is up to 7 months in jail, but Haynesworth wont see any of that. At worst, he'll have to do some community service, but he's not going to jail and I would be shocked if Goddell even bothered to suspend Haynesworth for any games.

GASP! Who cares? It's an irrelevant traffic offense.
