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

Re: Haynesworth indicted on two traffic charges.
 

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

Re: Haynesworth indicted on two traffic charges.
 

or both combined lol

Re: Haynesworth indicted on two traffic charges.
 

Will he be suspended by the league is my question/concern???

Re: Haynesworth indicted on two traffic charges.
 

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.

Suspended for a traffic vioaltion ? I highly doubt it.

Re: Haynesworth indicted on two traffic charges.
 

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

I was going to say the same thing.

Re: Haynesworth indicted on two traffic charges.
 

non issue. everyone take a deep breath

Re: Haynesworth indicted on two traffic charges.
 

As a repeat offender, this will get an 8-game minimum suspension. Somebody call Jason Taylor!

In his defense, he thought the gas pedal was Andre Gurode's head. Simple mistake.

Re: Haynesworth indicted on two traffic charges.
 

Some states require that charges get filed against a person if they cause an accident. By reading this it seems they just filed the charges against him (after an investigation of the accident) because he turned himself in and was released today. I'd also guess because he was trying to pass the other person the standard charge for this is reckless driving and the other charge gets thrown out if he shows to have the car registered. He goes to court and the judge reduces the reckless driving down to something else and its a done deal. Thats the legal part but I'm sure he is going to get a nice fat lawsuit but that could depend on the states laws. I would also guess that the Redskins knew all about this and did not think it was that big of a deal.
