    AN ACT concerning transportation.

 
    Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
 
represented in the General Assembly:



 
    Section 1. Findings. There is currently a lack of 
information available to State and local government officials 
and the public at large regarding the number and type of 
traffic violations involving taxis. By imposing a duty upon 
circuit court clerks to make this information available, 
governments can take further steps to ensure the safety of our 
streets for both pedestrians and drivers.
 
    Section 5. The Taxi Safety Act of 2007 is amended  by adding 
Section 15 as follows:
 
    (625 ILCS 55/15 new)
    Sec. 15. Taxi safety reporting. In counties in which 
vehicle citation records are not readily available to the 
public, the clerk of the circuit court shall furnish a list of 
all moving violations involving a taxi or an individual 
licensed or registered as a taxi driver upon the request of a 
unit of government that licenses, registers, or otherwise 
regulates taxi drivers.
