No parent wants to hear the news that his or her child has died in a traffic accident. Tragically, that was the experience Orson Steward shared with the House Transportation Committee on February 25, 2014.  He said if he had known about his teenage son's first speeding ticket for going over 100 miles per hour, his child might still be alive today. Rep. Reginald Meeks (D-Louisville) hopes to spare other parents from suffering the same loss. His House Bill 90 would notify parents if their child gets a speeding citation.
