Authorities said family members had repeatedly told Gibbs to slow down.
Gibbs, who has been living with Megan's family, was arraigned Thursday on homicide by vehicle, careless driving, reckless driving and speeding charges.
He was being held in the Fayette County jail and it was unclear if he had an attorney.
