Summary
Missouri’s new public safety laws pack a punch: rural speed limits could hit 75 mph pending study, passing stopped school buses now earns 5 license points and becomes a felony if injury occurs. Bently and Mason’s Law mandates child support for DWI-related parental deaths until age 21, with drunk driving causing death now classified as a class A felony. Boaters born after 2006 must carry safety cards, while penalties for damaging critical infrastructure and drone overflights tighten. Gift card scams face new legal teeth. Tech-focused updates like enhanced stalking/cyberharassment laws and RJ’s Law alert system (launching July 2027) are still coming — but Missouri’s casting a wide net to keep everyone safer on roads, water, and online.
