collected during January through June of the current calendar 
year, compile the data described in subsections (a) and (b) on

the
standardized law enforcement data compilation form 
provided by the Illinois
Department
of Transportation and

collected
under this Section, the analyzing 
entity shall scrutinize the data for evidence
of statistically

significant aberrations. The following list, which

which
statistically
significant aberrations may be found:

    being stopped in a
given
area
is substantially higher than 
    the proportion of the overall population in or
traveling

    through the area that the minority constitutes.


        (2) A substantial number of false stops including stops 
    not resulting in
the
issuance of a traffic ticket or the 
    making of an arrest.


        (3) A disparity between the proportion of citations 
    issued to minorities
and
proportion of minorities in the 
    population.


        (4) A disparity among the officers of the same law 
    enforcement agency with
regard to the number of minority 
    drivers or passengers being stopped in a given
area.


        (5) A disparity between the frequency of searches 
    performed on minority
drivers
and the frequency of searches 
    performed on non-minority drivers.

    (f) Any law enforcement officer identification information 
or driver
identification information
that is
compiled by any 
law enforcement agency or the Illinois Department of

Transportation
pursuant to this Act for
the purposes of 
fulfilling the requirements of this Section shall be

confidential and exempt
from
public inspection and copying, as 
provided under Section 7 of the Freedom of
Information
Act,
and 
the information shall not be transmitted to anyone except as 
needed to
comply with
this Section. This Section shall not 
exempt those materials that, prior to the
effective date of 
this
amendatory Act of the 93rd General Assembly, were 
available under the Freedom
of
Information Act. This subsection 
(f) shall not preclude law enforcement agencies from reviewing 
data to perform internal reviews.


    (g) Funding to implement this Section shall come from 
federal highway
safety
funds available to Illinois, as directed 
by the Governor.

    (h) The Illinois Department of Transportation, in 
consultation with
law enforcement agencies, officials, and 
organizations, including Illinois
chiefs of police,
the 
Department of State Police, the Illinois Sheriffs Association, 
and the
Chicago Police
Department, and community groups and 
other experts, shall undertake a study to
determine the best 
use of technology to collect, compile, and analyze the
traffic 
stop
statistical study data required by this Section. The 
Department shall report
its findings
and recommendations to the 
Governor and the General Assembly by March 1,
2004.
    (i) This Section is repealed on July 1, 2015.
