[Publius Valerius]

I don’t understand how any kind of motor vehicle offense could be considered a “felony” unless the defendant has the right to a jury trial.

Traditionally, a felony is defined as an offense punishable by longer than one year imprisonment. The Constitution guarantees a right to a jury trial for all offenses punishable by more than six months in prison.

Except DUI. That disappeared a long time ago.
