For reckless driving resulting in death, the penalty carries up to 10 years.

"I believe that a max of three years in jail for reckless driving that causes great bodily injury was a sentence that was reasonable for that charge," he said. "As a state, we need to take a stand and send a signal that we're not gonna put up with reckless, out-of-control driving."

Pracht said the Hallens family would be in favor of the change.

"They're not out here looking to lash out at anybody or for any kind of revenge, but what they're hoping is that by this legislation, it prevents it from happening," said Pracht. "That's the point of this, is that people will think before something happens."
