This depends on who is injured. If the driver only injures himself, then he/she is only guilty of a Class B misdemeanor. However, if any of his/her passengers are injured, or any other persons as a result of his driving, he/she is guilty of a Class A or Third Degree felony, depending upon the severity of the injuries.
