CJ's law increases penalties for leaving the scene of an accident resulting in a minor's death.

CJ's law amends the vehicle and traffic law to increase penalties for leaving the scene of an accident without reporting, particularly when the accident results in the death of a minor. The law classifies such an offense as a class C felony, punishable by a fine of not less than four thousand nor more than eight thousand dollars, in addition to any other penalties provided by law. This change aims to deter drivers from fleeing the scene of accidents involving minors.
