Best Answer

If you are not using a motor vehicle during the act of evading arrest, it is a Class B Misdemeanor.

Evading arrest using a vehicle:

  • If you have never been convicted of evading arrest before, then it is a state jail felony.
  • If you have been convicted of evading arrest before, or someone gets injured because you evaded arrest, then it is a third degree felony.
  • If someone died because you evaded arrest, then it is a second degree felony.
