HB 740 Missouri House · 2025 Regular Session

Establishes the offense of illegal street racing

HB 740 establishes "illegal street racing" as a specific offense under state law, defined as street racing activity violating Section 577.165. The bill adds an 8-point penalty to a driver's license for this offense, consistent with the existing point system for traffic violations. It directly affects drivers convicted of illegal street racing, who face license points that could lead to suspension or other consequences. The bill integrates this offense into the state's existing traffic point assessment framework without creating new penalties beyond the 8-point standard.
