A Missouri bill would require drunk drivers responsible for fatal collisions to pay child support to the remaining parent or guardians of the deceased parent. The proposal aims to provide ongoing financial support for children who lose a parent due to someone driving under the influence.
The legislation would apply to cases where a driver is legally intoxicated and causes the death of a parent, obligating the offender to contribute to the child’s financial needs. Support would be structured to continue until the child reaches adulthood or other specified milestones.
