An effort to change Iowa's hit-and-run traffic laws prompted by the 2015 death of an Iowa State University student will have to wait for the next legislative session. Ames Democrat Representative Lisa Heddens says her proposed "Emmalee's Law" didn't clear Friday's funnel deadline. The measure was named for 18-year-old Emmalee Jacobs, who died after being hit by a CyRide bus in December of 2015. Heddens says under current state law, a driver faces misdemeanor charges for hitting and killing a pedestrian, provided that driver wasn't aware at the time that someone was hit. Heddens wants the crime to carry felony charges. The bus driver, Benjamin Clague, served 30 days in jail.
