It depends on the jurisdiction in which you were arrested as well as whether your license was supended or not-- as well as the details of the accident and your prior record.

I concur with both responses. The jurisdiction plays a role as well as the nature and extent of the accident. You may be facing jail as well as a permanent criminal record.
