SB 623: Relating to the offense of attempting to elude a police officer.

SB 623 increases penalties for felony attempts to elude police officers in Oregon. It creates new sentencing levels for this offense: a Class C felony becomes a higher-level "crime category 6" if property damage occurs or if the driver is also convicted of careless driving or DUI during the same incident. Harsher "crime category 8" penalties apply for prior offenses, minors in the vehicle, or additional charges like reckless driving. Physical injury to others elevates the charge to a "person felony" with the highest sentencing level. The bill directly affects drivers who flee police during pursuits under these specific aggravating circumstances.
