Top Missouri officials say the state must fix the way it keeps track of drunk driving cases.

Dozens of state leaders met for a DWI summit in Jefferson City today to find better ways to handle impaired drivers.

The summit was called after newspaper articles highlighted gaps in the system and problems with handling repeat offenders.

Many say there needs to be an easier way to find out when a driver has had previous DWI convictions.

One prosecutor suggested creating a public database, modeled after Missouri's Sex Offender Registry.

Others suggested making it a criminal offense to refuse a breathalyzer.
