Missouri Senate OKs memorial signs for victims of drunken drivers, special license plates for suspended/revoked


Jefferson City, MO
A memorial sign program for drunken-driving victims was among the provisions included in an omnibus transportation bill approved Thursday by the Missouri Senate.

The sign program would allow family members of a person killed by a drunken driver to sponsor a highway sign. The signs would include the phrases “Drunk Driving Victim” and “Who’s Next?” and include the victim’s initials.

Family members would be charged a fee, and the signs would remain for 10 years.

The bill also would require drivers whose licenses have been suspended or revoked to exchange their current license plates for plates that indicate their loss of license. Law enforcement officers would be allowed to stop cars with the plates to verify that the driver has a valid license.

The bill moves to the House.
