Saskatchewan Driver Education GDL Class 7 Learner Practice Test

What is the punishment for causing bodily harm or death while impaired driving under the Criminal Code of Canada?

Up to 5 years in jail $1,000 fine Up to life in jail Up to 2 years in jail

Correct Answer:

Up to life in jail

Explanation:

Under the Criminal Code of Canada, impaired driving causing bodily harm or death is considered a very serious offence and the punishment can range from a fine to life imprisonment. Option A and D are incorrect because they only mention the maximum jail time which is up to 5 years and 2 years respectively, but they do not cover the range of punishment for this specific offence. Option B is incorrect because a $1,000 fine is not a sufficient punishment for causing bodily harm or death. Option C is the correct answer as it accurately reflects the potential severity of punishment for this crime.
