A new measure in memory of a Long Island teenager has passed in the state Senate
Angelica's Law would make it a felony to drive after five license suspensions rather than the current 10.
Dawn Nappi has been fighting for its approval for 15 years.
Nappi's 14-year-old daughter Angelica was killed in 2008 by a driver in Medford whose license had been suspended seven times.
The bill now heads to the governor’s desk for her signature.
