A bill that would outlaw driving under the influence of inhalants was passed unanimously by a NJ state Senate committee this morning. The bill, dubbed "Kimmie’s Law," was prompted by the death of 16-year-old Kim Goupil on a Sussex County road in 2007.
The bill would apply driving under the influence penalties against anyone who has any one of a list of more than two dozen chemicals in their bloodstream, including acetone, isopropyl alcohol, benzene or others, which can be inhaled from toxic vapors from glue, cement, aerosol cans or other sources, according to the bill.
