What's the max jail time for vehicular homicide?
None. Assuming that you are asking about a person that has been charged, has gone to court for trial, and has been found guilty of aggravated vehicular homicide, then the jury will, sometimes, recommend a sentence. If the judge allows. Many factors come into play when this court happens. But the literal answer to your question is no jail time. He or she is sentenced to PRISON, which is totally different from a jail. Go to a law library and do some research into some cases and find information, called discoveries, and you will see that it's not a one-size-fits-all answer. Also, be aware that homicide is different from vehicular homicide; aggravated vehicular homicde is, again, different. Each charge carries different plays in court.
