AB 1281 cracks down on hit-and-run drivers who cause death, ensuring they face real justice, not a slap on the wrist. Current law lets killers walk with as little as 90 days in jail. This bill raises the penalty to a minimum of 15 years in prison and 20 years if the driver is intoxicated. No more loopholes. No more fleeing the scene and escaping justice. We stand with victims like Austin Spirz and their families.
