In general crimes are divided into misdemeanors, traffic violations, and felonies. Misdemeanors are usually minor crimes such as jaywalking or theft of low-value items. Traffic violations can be misdemeanors or felonies but also include breaches of the traffic code such as failing to yield or speeding. Felonies are a more serious offense, with felony classifications either ranging from class A, B, and C, or Level 1-5 depending on the state and severity of the crime.
