1 | AN ACT concerning transportation.
| ||||||
2 | Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
| ||||||
3 | represented in the General Assembly:
| ||||||
4 | Section 5. The Freedom of Information Act is amended by | ||||||
5 | changing Section 7 as follows: | ||||||
6 | (5 ILCS 140/7) (from Ch. 116, par. 207) | ||||||
7 | Sec. 7. Exemptions.
| ||||||
8 | (1) When a request is made to inspect or copy a public | ||||||
9 | record that contains information that is exempt from | ||||||
10 | disclosure under this Section, but also contains information | ||||||
11 | that is not exempt from disclosure, the public body may elect | ||||||
12 | to redact the information that is exempt. The public body | ||||||
13 | shall make the remaining information available for inspection | ||||||
14 | and copying. Subject to this requirement, the following shall | ||||||
15 | be exempt from inspection and copying:
| ||||||
16 | (a) Information specifically prohibited from | ||||||
17 | disclosure by federal or
State law or rules and | ||||||
18 | regulations implementing federal or State law.
| ||||||
19 | (b) Private information, unless disclosure is required | ||||||
20 | by another provision of this Act, a State or federal law or | ||||||
21 | a court order. | ||||||
22 | (b-5) Files, documents, and other data or databases | ||||||
23 | maintained by one or more law enforcement agencies and |
| |||||||

2 | more law enforcement agencies regarding the physical or | ||||||
3 | mental status of one or more individual subjects. | ||||||
4 | (c) Personal information contained within public | ||||||
5 | records, the disclosure of which would constitute a | ||||||
6 | clearly
unwarranted invasion of personal privacy, unless | ||||||
7 | the disclosure is
consented to in writing by the | ||||||
8 | individual subjects of the information. "Unwarranted | ||||||
9 | invasion of personal privacy" means the disclosure of | ||||||
10 | information that is highly personal or objectionable to a | ||||||
11 | reasonable person and in which the subject's right to | ||||||
12 | privacy outweighs any legitimate public interest in | ||||||
13 | obtaining the information. The
disclosure of information | ||||||
14 | that bears on the public duties of public
employees and | ||||||
15 | officials shall not be considered an invasion of personal
| ||||||
16 | privacy.
| ||||||
17 | (d) Records in the possession of any public body | ||||||
18 | created in the course of administrative enforcement
| ||||||
19 | proceedings, and any law enforcement or correctional | ||||||
20 | agency for
law enforcement purposes,

21 | extent that disclosure would:
| ||||||
22 | (i) interfere with pending or actually and | ||||||
23 | reasonably contemplated
law enforcement proceedings | ||||||
24 | conducted by any law enforcement or correctional
| ||||||
25 | agency that is the recipient of the request;
| ||||||
26 | (ii) interfere with active administrative |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | enforcement proceedings
conducted by the public body | ||||||
2 | that is the recipient of the request;
| ||||||
3 | (iii) create a substantial likelihood that a | ||||||
4 | person will be deprived of a fair trial or an impartial | ||||||
5 | hearing;
| ||||||
6 | (iv) unavoidably disclose the identity of a | ||||||
7 | confidential source, confidential information | ||||||

9 | who file complaints with or provide information to | ||||||
10 | administrative, investigative, law enforcement, or | ||||||
11 | penal agencies; except that the identities of | ||||||
12 | witnesses to traffic crashes accidents , traffic crash | ||||||
13 | accident reports, and rescue reports shall be provided | ||||||
14 | by agencies of local government, except when | ||||||
15 | disclosure would interfere with an active criminal | ||||||
16 | investigation conducted by the agency that is the | ||||||
17 | recipient of the request;
| ||||||
18 | (v) disclose unique or specialized investigative | ||||||
19 | techniques other than

24 | agency or public body that is the recipient of the | ||||||
25 | request;
| ||||||
26 | (vi) endanger the life or physical safety of law |
| |||||||

3 | by the agency that is the recipient of the request.
| ||||||
4 | (d-5) A law enforcement record created for law | ||||||
5 | enforcement purposes and contained in a shared electronic | ||||||
6 | record management system if the law enforcement agency | ||||||
7 | that is the recipient of the request did not create the | ||||||
8 | record, did not participate in or have a role in any of the | ||||||

12 | occurring on or after May 1, 1985, within the
scope of that | ||||||
13 | employee's State employment, the Attorney General shall, upon
| ||||||
14 | timely and appropriate notice to him by such employee, appear | ||||||
15 | on behalf of
such employee and defend the action. Any such | ||||||
16 | notice shall be in
writing, shall be mailed within 15 days | ||||||
17 | after the date of receipt by the
employee of service of | ||||||
18 | process, and shall authorize the Attorney General
to represent | ||||||
19 | and defend the employee in the proceeding. The giving of
this | ||||||
20 | notice to the Attorney General shall constitute an agreement | ||||||
21 | by the
State employee to cooperate with the Attorney General | ||||||
22 | in his defense of
the action and a consent that the Attorney | ||||||
23 | General shall conduct the
defense as he deems advisable and in | ||||||
24 | the best interests of the employee,
including settlement in | ||||||
25 | the Attorney General's discretion. In any such
proceeding, the | ||||||
26 | State shall pay the court costs and litigation expenses
of |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | defending such action, to the extent approved by the Attorney | ||||||
2 | General
as reasonable, as they are incurred.
| ||||||
3 | (b) In the event that the Attorney General determines that | ||||||
4 | so
appearing and defending an employee either (1) involves an | ||||||
5 | actual or
potential conflict of interest, or (2) that the act | ||||||
6 | or omission which
gave rise to the claim was not within the | ||||||
7 | scope of the employee's State
employment or was intentional, | ||||||
8 | wilful or wanton misconduct, the Attorney
General shall | ||||||
9 | decline in writing to appear or defend or shall promptly
take | ||||||
10 | appropriate action to withdraw as attorney for such employee. | ||||||
11 | Upon
receipt of such declination or upon such withdrawal by | ||||||
12 | the Attorney
General on the basis of an actual or potential | ||||||
13 | conflict of interest, the
State employee may employ his own | ||||||
14 | attorney to appear and defend, in
which event the State shall | ||||||
15 | pay the employee's court costs, litigation
expenses and | ||||||
16 | attorneys' fees to the extent approved by the Attorney
General | ||||||
17 | as reasonable, as they are incurred. In the event that the
| ||||||
18 | Attorney General declines to appear or withdraws on the | ||||||
19 | grounds that the
act or omission was not within the scope of | ||||||
20 | employment, or was
intentional, wilful or wanton misconduct, | ||||||
21 | and a court or jury finds that
the act or omission of the State | ||||||
22 | employee was within the scope of
employment and was not | ||||||
23 | intentional, wilful or wanton misconduct, the
State shall | ||||||
24 | indemnify the State employee for any damages awarded and
court | ||||||
25 | costs and attorneys' fees assessed as part of any final and
| ||||||
26 | unreversed judgment. In such event the State shall also pay |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | the
employee's court costs, litigation expenses and attorneys' | ||||||
2 | fees to the
extent approved by the Attorney General as | ||||||
3 | reasonable.
| ||||||
4 | In the event that the defendant in the proceeding is an | ||||||
5 | elected State
official, including members of the General | ||||||
6 | Assembly, the elected State
official may retain his or her | ||||||
7 | attorney, provided that said attorney
shall be reasonably | ||||||
8 | acceptable to the Attorney General. In such case
the State | ||||||
9 | shall pay the elected State official's court costs, litigation
| ||||||
10 | expenses, and attorneys' fees, to the extent approved by the | ||||||
11 | Attorney
General as reasonable, as they are incurred.
| ||||||
12 | (b-5) The Attorney General may file a counterclaim on | ||||||
13 | behalf of a State
employee, provided:
| ||||||
14 | (1) the Attorney General determines that the State | ||||||
15 | employee is entitled to
representation in a civil action | ||||||
16 | under this Section;
| ||||||
17 | (2) the counterclaim arises out of any act or omission | ||||||
18 | occurring within
the scope of the employee's State | ||||||
19 | employment that is the subject of the civil
action; and
| ||||||
20 | (3) the employee agrees in writing that if judgment is | ||||||
21 | entered in favor of
the employee, the amount of the | ||||||
22 | judgment shall be applied to offset any
judgment that may | ||||||
23 | be entered in favor of the plaintiff, and then to | ||||||
24 | reimburse
the State treasury for court costs and | ||||||
25 | litigation expenses required to pursue
the counterclaim. | ||||||
26 | The balance of the collected judgment shall be paid to the
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | State employee.
| ||||||
2 | (c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section,
| ||||||
3 | representation and indemnification of a judge under this Act | ||||||
4 | shall also be
provided in any case where the plaintiff seeks | ||||||
5 | damages or any equitable
relief as a result of any decision, | ||||||
6 | ruling or order of a judge made in the
course of his or her | ||||||
7 | judicial or administrative duties, without regard to
the | ||||||
8 | theory of recovery employed by the plaintiff. Indemnification | ||||||
9 | shall be
for all damages awarded and all court costs, attorney | ||||||
10 | fees and litigation
expenses assessed against the judge. When | ||||||
11 | a judge has been convicted of a
crime as a result of his or her | ||||||
12 | intentional judicial misconduct in a trial,
that judge shall | ||||||
13 | not be entitled to indemnification and representation
under | ||||||
14 | this subsection in any case maintained by a party who seeks | ||||||
15 | damages
or other equitable relief as a direct result of
the | ||||||
16 | judge's intentional judicial misconduct.
| ||||||
17 | (d) In any such proceeding where notice in accordance with | ||||||
18 | this Section
has been given to the Attorney
General, unless | ||||||
19 | the court or jury finds that the
conduct or inaction which gave | ||||||
20 | rise to the claim or cause of action was
intentional, wilful or | ||||||
21 | wanton misconduct and was not intended to serve
or benefit | ||||||
22 | interests of the State, the State shall indemnify the State
| ||||||
23 | employee for any damages awarded and court costs and | ||||||
24 | attorneys' fees
assessed as part of any final and unreversed | ||||||
25 | judgment, or shall pay such
judgment. Unless the
Attorney | ||||||
26 | General determines that the conduct or inaction which gave |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | rise
to the claim or cause of action was intentional, wilful or | ||||||
2 | wanton
misconduct and was not intended to serve or benefit | ||||||
3 | interests of the
State, the case may be settled, in the | ||||||
4 | Attorney General's discretion and
with the employee's consent,
| ||||||
5 | and the State shall indemnify the employee for any damages, | ||||||
6 | court costs
and attorneys' fees agreed to as part of the | ||||||
7 | settlement, or shall pay
such settlement. Where the
employee | ||||||
8 | is represented by private counsel, any settlement must be so
| ||||||
9 | approved by the Attorney General and the court having | ||||||
10 | jurisdiction,
which shall obligate the State to indemnify the | ||||||
11 | employee.
| ||||||
12 | (e) (i) Court costs and litigation expenses and other | ||||||
13 | costs of providing a
defense or counterclaim, including | ||||||
14 | attorneys' fees obligated under this
Section, shall be paid | ||||||
15 | from the State Treasury on the warrant of the
Comptroller out | ||||||
16 | of appropriations made to the Department of Central Management
| ||||||
17 | Services specifically designed for the payment of costs, fees | ||||||
18 | and expenses
covered by this Section.
| ||||||
19 | (ii) Upon entry of a final judgment against the employee, | ||||||
20 | or upon the
settlement of the claim, the employee shall cause | ||||||
21 | to be served a copy of
such judgment or settlement, personally | ||||||
22 | or by certified or registered mail
within thirty days of the | ||||||
23 | date of entry or settlement, upon the chief
administrative | ||||||
24 | officer of the department, office or agency in which he is
| ||||||
25 | employed. If not inconsistent with the provisions of this | ||||||
26 | Section, such
judgment or settlement shall be certified for |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | payment by such chief
administrative officer and by the | ||||||
2 | Attorney General. The judgment or
settlement shall be paid | ||||||
3 | from the State Treasury on the warrant of the
Comptroller out | ||||||
4 | of appropriations made to the Department of Central
Management | ||||||
5 | Services specifically designed for the payment of claims | ||||||
6 | covered
by this Section.
| ||||||
7 | (f) Nothing contained or implied in this Section shall
| ||||||
8 | operate, or be construed or applied, to deprive the State, or | ||||||
9 | any employee
thereof, of any defense heretofore available.
| ||||||
10 | (g) This Section shall apply regardless of whether the
| ||||||
11 | employee is sued in his or her individual or official | ||||||
12 | capacity.

14 | injury or
damage to property arising from motor vehicle | ||||||
15 | crashes accidents .

17 | or
after its effective date, and to any proceeding pending on | ||||||
18 | its effective
date, if the State employee gives notice to the | ||||||
19 | Attorney General as
provided in this Section within 30 days of | ||||||
20 | the Act's effective date.
| ||||||
21 | (j) The amendatory changes made to this Section by this | ||||||
22 | amendatory Act of
1986 shall apply to all proceedings filed on | ||||||
23 | or after the effective date of
this amendatory Act of 1986 and | ||||||
24 | to any proceeding pending on its effective
date, if the State | ||||||
25 | employee gives notice to the Attorney General as provided
in | ||||||
26 | this Section within 30 days of the effective date of this |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | amendatory Act

or their appointing authorities, of
a | ||||||
4 | clean energy community trust or as members of a not-for-profit | ||||||
5 | foundation or
corporation established pursuant to Section
| ||||||
6 | 16-111.1 of the Public Utilities Act.
| ||||||
7 | (l) The State shall not provide representation for, nor | ||||||
8 | shall it indemnify, any State employee in (i) any criminal | ||||||
9 | proceeding in which the employee is a defendant or (ii) any | ||||||
10 | criminal investigation in which the employee is the target. | ||||||
11 | Nothing in this Act shall be construed to prohibit the State | ||||||
12 | from providing representation to a State employee who is a | ||||||
13 | witness in a criminal matter arising out of that employee's | ||||||
14 | State employment. | ||||||
15 | (Source: P.A. 99-461, eff. 1-1-17 .)
| ||||||
16 | Section 15. The Illinois Identification Card Act is | ||||||
17 | amended by changing Section 11A as follows: | ||||||
18 | (15 ILCS 335/11A) | ||||||
19 | Sec. 11A. Emergency contact database. | ||||||
20 | (a) The Secretary of State shall establish a database of | ||||||
21 | the emergency contacts of persons who hold identification | ||||||
22 | cards. Information in the database shall be accessible only to | ||||||
23 | employees of the Office of the Secretary and law enforcement | ||||||
24 | officers employed by a law enforcement agency. Law enforcement |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | officers may share information contained in the emergency | ||||||
2 | contact database, including disabilities and special needs | ||||||
3 | information, with other public safety workers on scene, as | ||||||
4 | needed to conduct official law enforcement duties. | ||||||
5 | (b) Any person holding an identification card shall be | ||||||
6 | afforded the opportunity to provide the Secretary of State, in | ||||||
7 | a manner and form designated by the Secretary of State, the | ||||||
8 | name, address, telephone number, and relationship to the | ||||||
9 | holder of no more than 2 emergency contact persons whom the | ||||||
10 | holder wishes to be contacted by a law enforcement officer if | ||||||
11 | the holder is involved in a motor vehicle crash accident or | ||||||
12 | other emergency situation and the holder is unable to | ||||||
13 | communicate with the contact person or persons and may | ||||||
14 | designate whether the holder has a disability or is a special | ||||||
15 | needs individual. A contact person need not be the holder's | ||||||
16 | next of kin. | ||||||
17 | (c) The Secretary shall adopt rules to implement this | ||||||
18 | Section. At a minimum, the rules shall address all of the | ||||||
19 | following: | ||||||

| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | that the Secretary determines is necessary to implement | ||||||
2 | this Section. | ||||||
3 | (d) If a person involved in a motor vehicle crash accident | ||||||
4 | or other emergency situation is unable to communicate with the | ||||||
5 | contact person or persons specified in the database, a law | ||||||
6 | enforcement officer shall make a good faith effort to notify | ||||||
7 | the contact person or persons of the situation. Neither the | ||||||
8 | law enforcement officer nor the law enforcement agency that | ||||||
9 | employs that law enforcement officer incurs any liability, | ||||||
10 | however, if the law enforcement officer is not able to make | ||||||
11 | contact with the contact person. Except for willful or wanton | ||||||
12 | misconduct, neither the law enforcement officer, nor the law | ||||||
13 | enforcement agency that employs the law enforcement officer, | ||||||
14 | shall incur any liability relating to the reporting or use of | ||||||
15 | the database during a motor vehicle crash accident or other | ||||||
16 | emergency situation. | ||||||
17 | (e) The Secretary of State shall make a good faith effort | ||||||
18 | to maintain accurate data as provided by the identification | ||||||
19 | card holder and to provide that information to law enforcement | ||||||
20 | as provided in subsection (a). The Secretary of State is not | ||||||
21 | liable for any damages, costs, or expenses, including, without | ||||||
22 | limitation, consequential damages, arising or resulting from | ||||||
23 | any inaccurate or incomplete data or system unavailability. | ||||||
24 | Except for willful or wanton misconduct, the Secretary of | ||||||
25 | State shall not incur any liability relating to the reporting | ||||||
26 | of disabilities or special needs individuals. |

23 | Training Standards Board that substantially conforms to the | ||||||
24 | standards promulgated pursuant to the Peace Officer and | ||||||

2 | Training Act. Such training need not include exposure to | ||||||
3 | vehicle and traffic
law, traffic control and crash accident | ||||||
4 | investigation, or first aid, but shall
include training in the | ||||||
5 | law relating to the rights of persons suspected of
involvement | ||||||
6 | in criminal activities. | ||||||
7 | For purposes of this subsection (b), a "State Fire Marshal | ||||||
8 | Arson Investigator Special Agent" does not include any fire | ||||||
9 | investigator, fireman, police officer, or other employee of | ||||||
10 | the federal government; any fire investigator, fireman, police | ||||||

| ||||||
3 | Sec. 1-10. Investigation of officer-involved deaths; | ||||||
4 | requirements.
| ||||||
5 | (a) Each law enforcement agency shall have a written | ||||||
6 | policy regarding the investigation of officer-involved deaths | ||||||
7 | that involve a law enforcement officer employed by that law | ||||||
8 | enforcement agency. | ||||||
9 | (b) Each officer-involved death investigation shall be | ||||||
10 | conducted by at least 2 investigators, or an entity or agency | ||||||
11 | comprised of at least 2 investigators, one of whom is the lead | ||||||
12 | investigator. The lead investigator shall be a person | ||||||
13 | certified by the Illinois Law Enforcement Training Standards | ||||||
14 | Board as a Lead Homicide Investigator, or similar training | ||||||
15 | approved by the Illinois Law Enforcement Training Standards | ||||||
16 | Board or the Illinois State Police, or similar training | ||||||
17 | provided at an Illinois Law Enforcement Training Standards | ||||||
18 | Board certified school. No
investigator involved in the | ||||||
19 | investigation may be employed by the law enforcement agency | ||||||
20 | that employs the officer involved in the officer-involved | ||||||
21 | death, unless the investigator is employed by the Illinois | ||||||
22 | State Police and is not assigned to the same division or unit | ||||||
23 | as the officer involved in the death. | ||||||
24 | (c) In addition to the requirements of subsection (b) of | ||||||
25 | this Section, if the officer-involved death being investigated |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | involves a motor vehicle crash accident , at least one | ||||||
2 | investigator shall be certified by the Illinois Law | ||||||
3 | Enforcement Training Standards Board as a Crash Reconstruction | ||||||
4 | Specialist, or similar training approved by the Illinois Law | ||||||
5 | Enforcement Training Standards Board or the Illinois State | ||||||
6 | Police, or similar training provided at an Illinois Law | ||||||
7 | Enforcement Training Standards Board certified school. | ||||||
8 | Notwithstanding the requirements of subsection (b) of this | ||||||
9 | Section, the policy for a law enforcement agency, when the | ||||||
10 | officer-involved death being investigated involves a motor | ||||||
11 | vehicle collision, may allow the use of an investigator who is | ||||||
12 | employed by that law enforcement agency and who is certified | ||||||
13 | by the Illinois Law Enforcement Training Standards Board as a | ||||||
14 | Crash Reconstruction Specialist, or similar training approved | ||||||
15 | by the Illinois Law Enforcement Training and Standards Board, | ||||||
16 | or similar certified training approved by the Illinois State | ||||||
17 | Police, or similar training provided at an Illinois Law | ||||||

20 | in an expeditious manner, provide a complete report to the | ||||||
21 | State's Attorney of the county in which the officer-involved | ||||||
22 | death occurred. | ||||||
23 | (e) If the State's Attorney, or a designated special | ||||||
24 | prosecutor, determines there is no basis to prosecute the law | ||||||
25 | enforcement officer involved in the officer-involved death, or | ||||||

| ||||||
2 | (Source: P.A. 102-538, eff. 8-20-21.) | ||||||
3 | Section 45. The Counties Code is amended by changing | ||||||
4 | Sections 3-3013 and 5-1182 as follows:
| ||||||
5 | (55 ILCS 5/3-3013) (from Ch. 34, par. 3-3013)
| ||||||
6 | Sec. 3-3013. Preliminary investigations; blood and urine | ||||||
7 | analysis;
summoning jury; reports. Every coroner, whenever, | ||||||
8 | as soon as he knows or is
informed that the dead body of any | ||||||
9 | person is found, or lying within his
county, whose death is | ||||||
10 | suspected of being:
| ||||||
11 | (a) A sudden or violent death, whether apparently | ||||||
12 | suicidal,
homicidal or accidental, including but not | ||||||
13 | limited to deaths apparently
caused or contributed to by | ||||||
14 | thermal, traumatic, chemical, electrical or
radiational | ||||||
15 | injury, or a complication of any of them, or by drowning or
| ||||||
16 | suffocation, or as a result of domestic violence as | ||||||
17 | defined in the Illinois
Domestic
Violence Act of 1986;
| ||||||
18 | (b) A death due to a
sex crime;
| ||||||
19 | (c) A death where the circumstances are suspicious, | ||||||
20 | obscure,
mysterious or otherwise unexplained or where, in | ||||||
21 | the written opinion of
the attending physician, the cause | ||||||
22 | of death is not determined;
| ||||||
23 | (d) A death where addiction to alcohol or to any drug | ||||||
24 | may have been
a contributory cause; or
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (e) A death where the decedent was not attended by a | ||||||
2 | licensed
physician;
| ||||||
3 | shall go to the place where the dead body is, and take charge | ||||||
4 | of the
same and shall make a preliminary investigation into | ||||||
5 | the circumstances
of the death. In the case of death without | ||||||
6 | attendance by a licensed
physician the body may be moved with | ||||||
7 | the coroner's consent from the
place of death to a mortuary in | ||||||
8 | the same county. Coroners in their
discretion shall notify | ||||||
9 | such physician as is designated in accordance
with Section | ||||||
10 | 3-3014 to attempt to ascertain the cause of death, either by
| ||||||
11 | autopsy or otherwise.
| ||||||
12 | In cases of accidental death involving a motor vehicle in | ||||||
13 | which the
decedent was (1) the operator or a suspected | ||||||
14 | operator of a motor
vehicle, or (2) a pedestrian 16 years of | ||||||
15 | age or older, the coroner shall
require that a blood specimen | ||||||
16 | of at least 30 cc., and if medically
possible a urine specimen | ||||||
17 | of at least 30 cc. or as much as possible up
to 30 cc., be | ||||||
18 | withdrawn from the body of the decedent in a timely fashion | ||||||
19 | after
the crash accident causing his death, by such physician | ||||||
20 | as has been designated
in accordance with Section 3-3014, or | ||||||
21 | by the coroner or deputy coroner or
a qualified person | ||||||
22 | designated by such physician, coroner, or deputy coroner. If | ||||||
23 | the county
does not maintain laboratory facilities for making | ||||||
24 | such analysis, the
blood and urine so drawn shall be sent to | ||||||
25 | the Illinois State Police or any other accredited or | ||||||
26 | State-certified laboratory
for analysis of the alcohol, carbon |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | monoxide, and dangerous or
narcotic drug content of such blood | ||||||
2 | and urine specimens. Each specimen
submitted shall be | ||||||
3 | accompanied by pertinent information concerning the
decedent | ||||||
4 | upon a form prescribed by such laboratory. Any
person drawing | ||||||
5 | blood and urine and any person making any examination of
the | ||||||
6 | blood and urine under the terms of this Division shall be | ||||||
7 | immune from all
liability, civil or criminal, that might | ||||||
8 | otherwise be incurred or
imposed.
| ||||||
9 | In all other cases coming within the jurisdiction of the | ||||||
10 | coroner and
referred to in subparagraphs (a) through (e) | ||||||
11 | above, blood, and whenever
possible, urine samples shall be | ||||||
12 | analyzed for the presence of alcohol
and other drugs. When the | ||||||
13 | coroner suspects that drugs may have been
involved in the | ||||||
14 | death, either directly or indirectly, a toxicological
| ||||||
15 | examination shall be performed which may include analyses of | ||||||
16 | blood, urine,
bile, gastric contents and other tissues. When | ||||||
17 | the coroner suspects
a death is due to toxic substances, other | ||||||
18 | than drugs, the coroner shall
consult with the toxicologist | ||||||
19 | prior to collection of samples. Information
submitted to the | ||||||
20 | toxicologist shall include information as to height,
weight, | ||||||
21 | age, sex and race of the decedent as well as medical history,
| ||||||
22 | medications used by and the manner of death of decedent.
| ||||||
23 | When the coroner or medical examiner finds that the cause | ||||||
24 | of death is due to homicidal means, the coroner or medical | ||||||
25 | examiner shall cause blood and buccal specimens (tissue may be | ||||||
26 | submitted if no uncontaminated blood or buccal specimen can be |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | obtained), whenever possible, to be withdrawn from the body of | ||||||
2 | the decedent in a timely fashion. For proper preservation of | ||||||
3 | the specimens, collected blood and buccal specimens shall be | ||||||
4 | dried and tissue specimens shall be frozen if available | ||||||
5 | equipment exists. As soon as possible, but no later than 30 | ||||||
6 | days after the collection of the specimens, the coroner or | ||||||
7 | medical examiner shall release those specimens to the police | ||||||
8 | agency responsible for investigating the death. As soon as | ||||||
9 | possible, but no later than 30 days after the receipt from the | ||||||
10 | coroner or medical examiner, the police agency shall submit | ||||||
11 | the specimens using the agency case number to a National DNA | ||||||
12 | Index System (NDIS) participating laboratory within this | ||||||
13 | State, such as the Illinois State Police, Division of Forensic | ||||||
14 | Services, for analysis and categorizing into genetic marker | ||||||
15 | groupings. The results of the analysis and categorizing into | ||||||
16 | genetic marker groupings shall be provided to the Illinois | ||||||
17 | State Police and shall be maintained by the Illinois State | ||||||
18 | Police in the State central repository in the same manner, and | ||||||
19 | subject to the same conditions, as provided in Section 5-4-3 | ||||||
20 | of the Unified Code of Corrections. The requirements of this | ||||||
21 | paragraph are in addition to any other findings, specimens, or | ||||||
22 | information that the coroner or medical examiner is required | ||||||
23 | to provide during the conduct of a criminal investigation.
| ||||||
24 | In all counties, in cases of apparent
suicide, homicide, | ||||||
25 | or accidental death or in other cases, within the
discretion | ||||||
26 | of the coroner, the coroner may summon 8 persons of lawful age
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | from those persons drawn for petit jurors in the county. The | ||||||
2 | summons shall
command these persons to present themselves | ||||||
3 | personally at such a place and
time as the coroner shall | ||||||
4 | determine, and may be in any form which the
coroner shall | ||||||
5 | determine and may incorporate any reasonable form of request
| ||||||
6 | for acknowledgment which the coroner deems practical and | ||||||
7 | provides a
reliable proof of service. The summons may be | ||||||
8 | served by first class mail.
From the 8 persons so summoned, the | ||||||
9 | coroner shall select 6 to serve as the
jury for the inquest. | ||||||
10 | Inquests may be continued from time
to time, as the coroner may | ||||||
11 | deem necessary. The 6 jurors selected in
a given case may view | ||||||
12 | the body of the deceased.
If at any continuation of an inquest | ||||||
13 | one or more of the original jurors
shall be unable to continue | ||||||
14 | to serve, the coroner shall fill the vacancy or
vacancies. A | ||||||
15 | juror serving pursuant to this paragraph shall receive
| ||||||
16 | compensation from the county at the same rate as the rate of | ||||||
17 | compensation
that is paid to petit or grand jurors in the | ||||||
18 | county. The coroner shall
furnish to each juror without fee at | ||||||
19 | the time of his discharge a
certificate of the number of days | ||||||
20 | in attendance at an inquest, and, upon
being presented with | ||||||
21 | such certificate, the county treasurer shall pay to
the juror | ||||||
22 | the sum provided for his services.
| ||||||
23 | In counties which have a jury commission, in cases of | ||||||
24 | apparent suicide or
homicide or of accidental death, the | ||||||
25 | coroner may conduct an inquest. The jury commission shall | ||||||
26 | provide
at least 8 jurors to the coroner, from whom the coroner |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | shall select any 6
to serve as the jury for the inquest. | ||||||
2 | Inquests may be continued from time
to time as the coroner may | ||||||
3 | deem necessary. The 6 jurors originally chosen
in a given case | ||||||
4 | may view the body of the deceased. If at any continuation
of an | ||||||
5 | inquest one or more of the 6 jurors originally chosen shall be | ||||||
6 | unable
to continue to serve, the coroner shall fill the | ||||||
7 | vacancy or vacancies. At
the coroner's discretion, additional | ||||||
8 | jurors to fill such vacancies shall be
supplied by the jury | ||||||
9 | commission. A juror serving pursuant to this
paragraph in such | ||||||
10 | county shall receive compensation from the county at the
same | ||||||
11 | rate as the rate of compensation that is paid to petit or grand | ||||||
12 | jurors
in the county.
| ||||||
13 | In every case in which a fire is determined to be
a
| ||||||
14 | contributing factor in a death, the coroner shall report the | ||||||
15 | death to the
Office of the State Fire Marshal. The coroner | ||||||
16 | shall provide a copy of the death certificate (i) within 30 | ||||||
17 | days after filing the permanent death certificate and (ii) in | ||||||
18 | a manner that is agreed upon by the coroner and the State Fire | ||||||
19 | Marshal. | ||||||
20 | In every case in which a drug overdose is determined to be | ||||||
21 | the cause or a contributing factor in the death, the coroner or | ||||||
22 | medical examiner shall report the death to the Department of | ||||||
23 | Public Health. The Department of Public Health shall adopt | ||||||
24 | rules regarding specific information that must be reported in | ||||||
25 | the event of such a death. If possible, the coroner shall | ||||||
26 | report the cause of the overdose. As used in this Section, |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | "overdose" has the same meaning as it does in Section 414 of | ||||||
2 | the Illinois Controlled Substances Act. The Department of | ||||||
3 | Public Health shall issue a semiannual report to the General | ||||||
4 | Assembly summarizing the reports received. The Department | ||||||
5 | shall also provide on its website a monthly report of overdose | ||||||
6 | death figures organized by location, age, and any other | ||||||
7 | factors, the Department deems appropriate. | ||||||
8 | In addition, in every case in which domestic violence is | ||||||
9 | determined to be
a
contributing factor in a death, the coroner | ||||||
10 | shall report the death to the
Illinois State Police.
| ||||||
11 | All deaths in State institutions and all deaths of wards | ||||||
12 | of the State or youth in care as defined in Section 4d of the | ||||||
13 | Children and Family Services Act in
private care facilities or | ||||||
14 | in programs funded by the Department of Human
Services under | ||||||
15 | its powers relating to mental health and developmental
| ||||||
16 | disabilities or alcoholism and substance
abuse or funded by | ||||||
17 | the Department of Children and Family Services shall
be | ||||||
18 | reported to the coroner of the county in which the facility is
| ||||||
19 | located. If the coroner has reason to believe that an | ||||||
20 | investigation is
needed to determine whether the death was | ||||||
21 | caused by maltreatment or
negligent care of the ward of the | ||||||
22 | State or youth in care as defined in Section 4d of the Children | ||||||
23 | and Family Services Act, the coroner may conduct a
preliminary | ||||||
24 | investigation of the circumstances of such death as in cases | ||||||
25 | of
death under circumstances set forth in paragraphs (a) | ||||||
26 | through (e) of this
Section.

| ||||||
2 | (55 ILCS 5/5-1182) | ||||||
3 | Sec. 5-1182. Charitable organizations; solicitation. | ||||||
4 | (a) No county may prohibit a charitable organization, as | ||||||
5 | defined in Section 2 of the Charitable Games Act, from | ||||||
6 | soliciting for charitable purposes, including solicitations | ||||||
7 | taking place on public roadways from passing motorists, if all | ||||||
8 | of the following requirements are met. | ||||||
9 | (1) The persons to be engaged in the solicitation are | ||||||
10 | law enforcement personnel, firefighters, or other persons | ||||||
11 | employed to protect the public safety of a local agency, | ||||||
12 | and those persons are soliciting solely in an area that is | ||||||
13 | within the service area of that local agency. | ||||||
14 | (2) The charitable organization files an application | ||||||
15 | with the county having jurisdiction over the location or | ||||||
16 | locations where the solicitation is to occur. The | ||||||
17 | applications shall be filed not later than 10 business | ||||||
18 | days before the date that the solicitation is to begin and | ||||||
19 | shall include all of the following: | ||||||
20 | (A) The date or dates and times of day when the | ||||||
21 | solicitation is to occur. | ||||||
22 | (B) The location or locations where the | ||||||
23 | solicitation is to occur along with a list of 3 | ||||||
24 | alternate locations listed in order of preference. | ||||||
25 | (C) The manner and conditions under which the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | solicitation is to occur. | ||||||
2 | (D) Proof of a valid liability insurance policy in | ||||||
3 | the amount of at least $1,000,000 insuring the charity | ||||||
4 | or local agency against bodily injury and property | ||||||
5 | damage arising out of or in connection with the | ||||||
6 | solicitation. | ||||||
7 | The county shall approve the application within 5 business | ||||||
8 | days after the filing date of the application, but may impose | ||||||
9 | reasonable conditions in writing that are consistent with the | ||||||
10 | intent of this Section and are based on articulated public | ||||||
11 | safety concerns. If the county determines that the applicant's | ||||||
12 | location cannot be permitted due to significant safety | ||||||
13 | concerns, such as high traffic volumes, poor geometrics, | ||||||
14 | construction, maintenance operations, or past crash accident | ||||||
15 | history, then the county may deny the application for that | ||||||
16 | location and must approve one of the 3 alternate locations | ||||||
17 | following the order of preference submitted by the applicant | ||||||
18 | on the alternate location list. By acting under this Section, | ||||||
19 | a local agency does not waive or limit any immunity from | ||||||
20 | liability provided by any other provision of law. | ||||||
21 | (b) For purposes of this Section, "local agency" means a | ||||||
22 | county, special district, fire district, joint powers of | ||||||
23 | authority, or other political subdivision of the State of | ||||||
24 | Illinois. | ||||||
25 | (c) A home rule unit may not regulate a charitable | ||||||
26 | organization in a manner that is inconsistent with this |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | Section. This Section is a limitation under subsection (i) of | ||||||
2 | Section 6 of Article VII of the Illinois Constitution on the | ||||||
3 | concurrent exercise by home rule units of powers and functions | ||||||
4 | exercised by the State.

The corporate authorities of each | ||||||
10 | municipality may prevent
and regulate all amusements and | ||||||
11 | activities having a tendency to annoy or
endanger persons or | ||||||
12 | property on the sidewalks, streets, and other municipal
| ||||||
13 | property. However, no municipality may prohibit a charitable | ||||||
14 | organization, as defined in Section 2 of the Charitable Games | ||||||
15 | Act, from soliciting for charitable purposes, including | ||||||
16 | solicitations taking place on public roadways from passing | ||||||
17 | motorists, if all of the following requirements are met.
| ||||||
18 | (1) The persons to be engaged in the solicitation are | ||||||
19 | law enforcement personnel, firefighters, or other persons | ||||||
20 | employed to protect the public safety of a local agency, | ||||||
21 | and that are soliciting solely in an area that is within | ||||||
22 | the service area of that local agency. | ||||||
23 | (2) The charitable organization files an application | ||||||
24 | with the municipality having jurisdiction over the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | location or locations where the solicitation is to occur. | ||||||
2 | The application shall be filed not later than 10 business | ||||||
3 | days before the date that the solicitation is to begin and | ||||||
4 | shall include all of the following: | ||||||
5 | (A) The date or dates and times of day when the | ||||||
6 | solicitation is to occur. | ||||||
7 | (B) The location or locations where the | ||||||
8 | solicitation is to occur along with a list of 3 | ||||||
9 | alternate locations listed in order of preference. | ||||||
10 | (C) The manner and conditions under which the | ||||||
11 | solicitation is to occur. | ||||||
12 | (D) Proof of a valid liability insurance policy in | ||||||
13 | the amount of at least $1,000,000 insuring the charity | ||||||
14 | or local agency against bodily injury and property | ||||||
15 | damage arising out of or in connection with the | ||||||
16 | solicitation. | ||||||
17 | The municipality shall approve the application within 5 | ||||||
18 | business days after the filing date of the application, but | ||||||
19 | may impose reasonable conditions in writing that are | ||||||
20 | consistent with the intent of this Section and are based on | ||||||
21 | articulated public safety concerns. If the municipality | ||||||
22 | determines that the applicant's location cannot be permitted | ||||||
23 | due to significant safety concerns, such as high traffic | ||||||
24 | volumes, poor geometrics, construction, maintenance | ||||||
25 | operations, or past crash accident history, then the | ||||||
26 | municipality may deny the application for that location and |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | must approve one of the 3 alternate locations following the | ||||||
2 | order of preference submitted by the applicant on the | ||||||
3 | alternate location list. By acting under this Section, a local | ||||||
4 | agency does not waive or limit any immunity from liability | ||||||
5 | provided by any other provision of law. | ||||||
6 | For purposes of this Section, "local agency" means a | ||||||
7 | municipality, special district, fire district, joint powers of | ||||||
8 | authority, or other political subdivision of the State of | ||||||
9 | Illinois. | ||||||
10 | A home rule unit may not regulate a charitable | ||||||
11 | organization in a manner that is inconsistent with this | ||||||
12 | Section. This Section is a limitation under subsection (i) of | ||||||
13 | Section 6 of Article VII of the Illinois Constitution on the | ||||||
14 | concurrent exercise by home rule units of powers and functions | ||||||
15 | exercised by the State. | ||||||

15 | company the information necessary
to determine eligibility.
| ||||||
16 | (e) This Section shall not apply to:

motor | ||||||
24 | vehicle laws of this State, until that operator
shall have | ||||||
25 | maintained a driving record free of crashes
accidents and | ||||||
26 | moving violations for
a continuous one year period,

| ||||||
24 | (1) No policy insuring against
loss resulting from |

1 | liability imposed by law for bodily injury or death
suffered | ||||||
2 | by any person arising out of the ownership, maintenance or use
| ||||||
3 | of a motor vehicle that is designed for use on public highways | ||||||
4 | and that
is either required to be registered in this State or | ||||||
5 | is principally garaged
in this State shall be renewed, | ||||||
6 | delivered, or issued for delivery
in this State unless | ||||||
7 | coverage is provided therein or
supplemental thereto, in | ||||||
8 | limits for bodily injury or death set forth in
Section 7-203 of | ||||||
9 | the Illinois Vehicle Code for the
protection of persons | ||||||
10 | insured thereunder who are legally entitled to
recover damages | ||||||
11 | from owners or operators of uninsured motor vehicles and
| ||||||
12 | hit-and-run motor vehicles because of bodily injury, sickness | ||||||
13 | or
disease, including death, resulting therefrom. Uninsured | ||||||
14 | motor vehicle
coverage does not apply to bodily injury, | ||||||
15 | sickness, disease, or death resulting
therefrom, of an insured | ||||||
16 | while occupying a motor vehicle owned by, or furnished
or | ||||||
17 | available for the regular use of the insured, a resident | ||||||
18 | spouse or resident
relative, if that motor vehicle is not | ||||||
19 | described in the policy under which a
claim is made or is not a | ||||||
20 | newly acquired or replacement motor vehicle covered
under the | ||||||
21 | terms of the policy. The limits for any coverage for any | ||||||
22 | vehicle
under the policy may not be aggregated with the limits | ||||||
23 | for any similar
coverage, whether provided by the same insurer | ||||||
24 | or another insurer, applying to
other motor vehicles, for | ||||||
25 | purposes of determining the total limit of insurance
coverage | ||||||
26 | available for bodily injury or death suffered by a person in |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | any one
crash accident . No
policy shall be renewed, delivered, | ||||||
2 | or issued for delivery in this
State unless it is provided | ||||||
3 | therein that any dispute
with respect to the coverage and the | ||||||
4 | amount of damages shall be submitted
for arbitration to the
| ||||||
5 | American Arbitration Association and be subject to its rules | ||||||
6 | for the conduct
of arbitration hearings
as to all matters | ||||||
7 | except medical opinions. As to medical opinions, if the
amount | ||||||
8 | of damages being sought is equal to or less than the amount | ||||||
9 | provided for
in Section 7-203 of the Illinois Vehicle Code, | ||||||
10 | then the current American
Arbitration Association Rules shall | ||||||
11 | apply. If the amount being sought in an
American Arbitration | ||||||
12 | Association case exceeds that amount as set forth in
Section | ||||||
13 | 7-203 of the Illinois Vehicle Code, then the Rules of Evidence | ||||||
14 | that
apply in the circuit court for placing medical opinions | ||||||
15 | into evidence shall
govern. Alternatively, disputes with | ||||||
16 | respect to damages and the coverage shall
be
determined in the
| ||||||
17 | following
manner: Upon the insured requesting arbitration, | ||||||
18 | each party to the
dispute shall select an arbitrator and the 2 | ||||||
19 | arbitrators so named
shall select a third arbitrator. If such | ||||||
20 | arbitrators are not selected
within 45 days from such request, | ||||||
21 | either party may request that the
arbitration be submitted to | ||||||
22 | the American Arbitration Association.
Any decision made by the | ||||||
23 | arbitrators shall be binding for the amount of
damages not | ||||||
24 | exceeding $75,000 for bodily injury to or
death of any one | ||||||
25 | person, $150,000 for bodily injury to or death of 2 or more
| ||||||
26 | persons in any one motor vehicle crash accident ,
or the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | corresponding policy limits for bodily injury or death, | ||||||
2 | whichever is
less.
All 3-person arbitration cases proceeding | ||||||
3 | in accordance with any uninsured
motorist
coverage conducted | ||||||
4 | in this State in
which the claimant is only seeking monetary | ||||||
5 | damages up to the limits
set forth in Section 7-203 of the | ||||||
6 | Illinois Vehicle Code
shall be subject to the following rules:
| ||||||
7 | (A) If at least 60 days' written
notice of the | ||||||
8 | intention to offer the following documents in evidence is | ||||||
9 | given
to every other party, accompanied by a copy of the | ||||||

11 | foundation or other proof:
| ||||||
12 | (1) bills, records, and reports of hospitals, | ||||||
13 | doctors, dentists,
registered nurses, licensed | ||||||
14 | practical nurses, physical therapists, and other

16 | (2) bills for drugs, medical appliances, and | ||||||
17 | prostheses;
| ||||||
18 | (3) property repair bills or estimates, when | ||||||
19 | identified and itemized

20 | labor and material used or proposed for use in
the | ||||||
21 | repair of the property;
| ||||||
22 | (4) a report of the rate of earnings and time lost | ||||||
23 | from work or lost
compensation prepared by an | ||||||
24 | employer;
| ||||||
25 | (5) the written opinion of an opinion witness, the | ||||||
26 | deposition of a
witness, and the statement of a |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | witness that the witness would be allowed to
express | ||||||
2 | if testifying in person, if the opinion or statement | ||||||
3 | is made by
affidavit or by
certification as provided | ||||||
4 | in Section 1-109 of the Code of Civil Procedure;
| ||||||
5 | (6) any other document not specifically covered by | ||||||
6 | any of the foregoing
provisions that is otherwise | ||||||
7 | admissible under the rules of evidence.
| ||||||
8 | Any party receiving a notice under this paragraph (A) | ||||||
9 | may apply to the
arbitrator or panel of arbitrators, as | ||||||
10 | the case may be, for the issuance of a
subpoena directed to | ||||||
11 | the author or maker or custodian of the document that is
| ||||||
12 | the subject of the notice, requiring the person subpoenaed | ||||||
13 | to produce copies of
any additional documents as may be | ||||||
14 | related to the subject matter of the
document that is the | ||||||
15 | subject of the notice. Any such subpoena shall be issued
| ||||||
16 | in substantially similar form and served by notice as | ||||||
17 | provided by Illinois
Supreme Court Rule 204(a)(4). Any | ||||||
18 | such subpoena shall be returnable not
less than 5 days | ||||||
19 | before the arbitration hearing.
| ||||||
20 | (B) Notwithstanding the provisions of Supreme Court | ||||||
21 | Rule 213(g), a party
who proposes to use a written opinion | ||||||
22 | of an expert or opinion witness or the
testimony of
an | ||||||
23 | expert or opinion witness at the hearing may do so | ||||||
24 | provided a written notice
of that
intention is given to | ||||||
25 | every other party not less than 60 days prior to the date
| ||||||
26 | of hearing, accompanied by a statement containing the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | identity of the
witness, his or her qualifications, the | ||||||
2 | subject matter, the basis of the
witness's conclusions,
| ||||||
3 | and his or her opinion.
| ||||||
4 | (C) Any other party may subpoena the author or maker | ||||||
5 | of a document
admissible under this subsection, at that | ||||||
6 | party's expense, and examine the
author
or maker as if | ||||||
7 | under cross-examination. The provisions of Section 2-1101 | ||||||
8 | of
the
Code of Civil Procedure shall be applicable to | ||||||
9 | arbitration hearings, and it
shall be the duty of a party | ||||||
10 | requesting the subpoena to modify the form to show
that | ||||||
11 | the appearance is set before an arbitration panel and to | ||||||
12 | give the time and
place set for the hearing.
| ||||||
13 | (D) The provisions of Section 2-1102 of the Code of | ||||||
14 | Civil Procedure shall
be
applicable to arbitration | ||||||
15 | hearings under this subsection.
| ||||||
16 | (2) No policy insuring
against loss resulting from | ||||||
17 | liability imposed by law for property damage
arising out of | ||||||
18 | the ownership, maintenance, or use of a motor vehicle shall
be | ||||||
19 | renewed, delivered, or issued for delivery in this State with | ||||||
20 | respect
to any private passenger or recreational motor vehicle | ||||||
21 | that is
designed for use on public highways and that is either | ||||||
22 | required to be
registered in this State or is principally | ||||||
23 | garaged in this State and
is not covered by collision | ||||||
24 | insurance under the provisions of such
policy, unless coverage | ||||||
25 | is made available in the amount of the actual
cash value of the | ||||||
26 | motor vehicle described in the policy or $15,000
whichever is |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | less, subject to a $250 deductible, for the protection of
| ||||||
2 | persons insured thereunder who are legally entitled to recover | ||||||
3 | damages from
owners or operators of uninsured motor vehicles | ||||||
4 | and hit-and-run motor
vehicles because of property damage to | ||||||
5 | the motor vehicle described in the
policy.
| ||||||
6 | There shall be no liability imposed under the uninsured | ||||||
7 | motorist
property damage coverage required by this subsection | ||||||
8 | if the owner or
operator of the at-fault uninsured motor | ||||||
9 | vehicle or hit-and-run motor
vehicle cannot be identified. | ||||||
10 | This subsection shall not apply to any
policy which does not | ||||||
11 | provide primary motor vehicle liability insurance for
| ||||||
12 | liabilities arising from the maintenance, operation, or use of | ||||||
13 | a
specifically insured motor vehicle.
| ||||||
14 | Each insurance company providing motor vehicle property | ||||||
15 | damage liability
insurance shall advise applicants of the | ||||||
16 | availability of uninsured motor
vehicle property damage | ||||||
17 | coverage, the premium therefor, and provide a brief
| ||||||
18 | description of the coverage. That information
need be given | ||||||
19 | only once and shall not be required in any subsequent renewal,
| ||||||
20 | reinstatement or reissuance, substitute, amended, replacement | ||||||
21 | or
supplementary policy. No written rejection shall be | ||||||
22 | required, and
the absence of a premium payment for uninsured | ||||||
23 | motor vehicle property damage
shall constitute conclusive | ||||||
24 | proof that the applicant or policyholder has
elected not to | ||||||
25 | accept uninsured motorist property damage coverage.
| ||||||
26 | An insurance company issuing uninsured motor vehicle
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | property damage coverage may provide that:
| ||||||
2 | (i) Property damage losses recoverable thereunder | ||||||
3 | shall be limited to
damages caused by the actual physical | ||||||
4 | contact of an uninsured motor vehicle
with the insured | ||||||
5 | motor vehicle.
| ||||||
6 | (ii) There shall be no coverage for loss of use of the | ||||||
7 | insured motor
vehicle and no coverage for loss or damage | ||||||
8 | to personal property located in
the insured motor vehicle.
| ||||||
9 | (iii) Any claim submitted shall include the name and | ||||||
10 | address of the
owner of the at-fault uninsured motor | ||||||
11 | vehicle, or a registration number and
description of the | ||||||
12 | vehicle, or any other available information to
establish | ||||||
13 | that there is no applicable motor vehicle property damage | ||||||
14 | liability
insurance.
| ||||||
15 | Any dispute with respect to the coverage and the amount of
| ||||||
16 | damages shall be submitted for
arbitration to the American | ||||||
17 | Arbitration Association and be subject to its
rules for the | ||||||
18 | conduct of arbitration hearings or for determination in
the | ||||||
19 | following manner: Upon the insured requesting arbitration, | ||||||
20 | each party
to the dispute shall select an arbitrator and the 2 | ||||||
21 | arbitrators so named
shall select a third arbitrator. If such | ||||||
22 | arbitrators are not selected
within 45 days from such request, | ||||||
23 | either party may request that the
arbitration be submitted to | ||||||
24 | the American Arbitration Association.
Any arbitration | ||||||
25 | proceeding under this subsection seeking recovery for
property | ||||||
26 | damages shall be
subject to the following rules:
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (A) If at least 60 days' written
notice of the | ||||||
2 | intention to offer the following documents in evidence is | ||||||
3 | given
to every other party, accompanied by a copy of the | ||||||
4 | document, a party may offer
in evidence, without | ||||||
5 | foundation or other proof:
| ||||||
6 | (1) property repair bills or estimates, when | ||||||
7 | identified and itemized
setting forth the charges for | ||||||
8 | labor and material used or proposed for use in
the | ||||||
9 | repair of the property;
| ||||||
10 | (2) the written opinion of an opinion witness, the | ||||||
11 | deposition of a
witness, and the statement of a | ||||||
12 | witness that the witness would be allowed to
express | ||||||
13 | if testifying in person, if the opinion or statement | ||||||
14 | is made by
affidavit or by
certification as provided | ||||||
15 | in Section 1-109 of the Code of Civil Procedure;
| ||||||
16 | (3) any other document not specifically covered by | ||||||
17 | any of the foregoing
provisions that is otherwise | ||||||
18 | admissible under the rules of evidence.
| ||||||
19 | Any party receiving a notice under this paragraph (A) | ||||||
20 | may apply to the
arbitrator or panel of arbitrators, as | ||||||
21 | the case may be, for the issuance of a
subpoena directed to | ||||||
22 | the author or maker or custodian of the document that is
| ||||||
23 | the subject of the notice, requiring the person subpoenaed | ||||||
24 | to produce copies of
any additional documents as may be | ||||||
25 | related to the subject matter of the
document that is the | ||||||
26 | subject of the notice. Any such subpoena shall be issued
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | in substantially similar form and served by notice as | ||||||
2 | provided by Illinois
Supreme Court Rule 204(a)(4). Any | ||||||
3 | such subpoena shall be returnable not
less than 5 days | ||||||
4 | before the arbitration hearing.
| ||||||
5 | (B) Notwithstanding the provisions of Supreme Court | ||||||
6 | Rule 213(g), a party
who proposes to use a written opinion | ||||||
7 | of an expert or opinion witness or the
testimony of
an | ||||||
8 | expert or opinion witness at the hearing may do so | ||||||
9 | provided a written notice
of that
intention is given to | ||||||
10 | every other party not less than 60 days prior to the date
| ||||||
11 | of hearing, accompanied by a statement containing the | ||||||
12 | identity of the
witness, his or her qualifications, the | ||||||
13 | subject matter, the basis of the
witness's conclusions,
| ||||||
14 | and his or her opinion.
| ||||||
15 | (C) Any other party may subpoena the author or maker | ||||||
16 | of a document
admissible under this subsection, at that | ||||||
17 | party's expense, and examine the
author
or maker as if | ||||||
18 | under cross-examination. The provisions of Section 2-1101 | ||||||
19 | of
the
Code of Civil Procedure shall be applicable to | ||||||
20 | arbitration hearings, and it
shall be the duty of a party | ||||||
21 | requesting the subpoena to modify the form to show
that | ||||||
22 | the appearance is set before an arbitration panel and to | ||||||
23 | give the time and
place set for the hearing.
| ||||||
24 | (D) The provisions of Section 2-1102 of the Code of | ||||||
25 | Civil Procedure shall
be
applicable to arbitration | ||||||
26 | hearings under this subsection.
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (3) For the purpose of the coverage, the term "uninsured | ||||||
2 | motor
vehicle" includes, subject to the terms and conditions | ||||||
3 | of the coverage,
a motor vehicle where on, before , or after the | ||||||
4 | accident date of the crash the
liability insurer thereof is | ||||||
5 | unable to make payment with respect to the
legal liability of | ||||||
6 | its insured within the limits specified in the policy
because | ||||||
7 | of the entry by a court of competent jurisdiction of an order | ||||||
8 | of
rehabilitation or liquidation by reason of insolvency on or | ||||||
9 | after the
accident date of the crash . An insurer's extension | ||||||
10 | of coverage, as provided in this
subsection, shall be | ||||||
11 | applicable to all crashes accidents occurring after July
1, | ||||||
12 | 1967 during a policy period in which its insured's uninsured | ||||||
13 | motor
vehicle coverage is in effect. Nothing in this Section | ||||||
14 | may be construed
to prevent any insurer from extending | ||||||
15 | coverage under terms and
conditions more favorable to its | ||||||
16 | insureds than is required by this Section.
| ||||||
17 | (4) In the event of payment to any person under the | ||||||
18 | coverage
required by this Section and subject to the terms and | ||||||
19 | conditions of the
coverage, the insurer making the payment | ||||||
20 | shall, to the extent thereof,
be entitled to the proceeds of | ||||||
21 | any settlement or judgment resulting from
the exercise of any | ||||||
22 | rights of recovery of the person against any person
or | ||||||
23 | organization legally responsible for the property damage, | ||||||
24 | bodily
injury or death for which the payment is made, | ||||||
25 | including the proceeds
recoverable from the assets of the | ||||||
26 | insolvent insurer. With respect to
payments made by reason of |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | the coverage described in subsection (3), the
insurer making | ||||||
2 | such payment shall not be entitled to any right of recovery
| ||||||
3 | against the tortfeasor in excess of the proceeds recovered | ||||||
4 | from the assets
of the insolvent insurer of the tortfeasor.
| ||||||
5 | (5) This amendatory Act of 1967 (Laws of Illinois 1967, | ||||||
6 | page 875) shall not be construed to terminate
or reduce any | ||||||
7 | insurance coverage or any right of any party under this
Code in | ||||||
8 | effect before July 1, 1967. Public Act 86-1155 shall not
be | ||||||
9 | construed to terminate or reduce any insurance coverage or any | ||||||
10 | right of
any party under this Code in effect before its | ||||||
11 | effective date.
| ||||||
12 | (6) Failure of the motorist from whom the claimant is | ||||||
13 | legally
entitled to recover damages to file the appropriate | ||||||
14 | forms with the
Safety Responsibility Section of the Department | ||||||
15 | of Transportation within
120 days of the accident date of the | ||||||
16 | crash shall create a rebuttable presumption that
the motorist | ||||||
17 | was uninsured at the time of the injurious occurrence.
| ||||||
18 | (7) An insurance carrier may upon good cause require the
| ||||||
19 | insured to commence a legal action against the owner or | ||||||
20 | operator of an
uninsured motor vehicle before good faith | ||||||
21 | negotiation with the carrier. If
the action is commenced at | ||||||
22 | the request of the insurance carrier, the
carrier shall pay to | ||||||
23 | the insured, before the action is commenced, all court
costs, | ||||||
24 | jury fees and sheriff's fees arising from the action.
| ||||||
25 | The changes made by Public Act 90-451 apply to all | ||||||
26 | policies of
insurance amended, delivered, issued, or renewed |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | on and after January 1, 1998 (the effective
date of Public Act | ||||||
2 | 90-451).
| ||||||
3 | (8) The changes made by Public Act 98-927 apply to all | ||||||
4 | policies of
insurance amended, delivered, issued, or renewed | ||||||

date of Public Act | ||||||

| ||||||
9 | (215 ILCS 5/143a-2) (from Ch. 73, par. 755a-2)
| ||||||
10 | Sec. 143a-2. (1) Additional uninsured motor vehicle
| ||||||
11 | coverage. No policy insuring against loss resulting from | ||||||
12 | liability imposed
by law for bodily injury or death suffered | ||||||
13 | by any person arising out of the
ownership, maintenance or use | ||||||
14 | of a motor vehicle shall be renewed or
delivered or issued for | ||||||
15 | delivery in this State with respect to any motor
vehicle | ||||||
16 | designed for use on public highways and required to be | ||||||
17 | registered
in this State unless uninsured motorist coverage as | ||||||
18 | required in Section
143a of this Code is included in an amount | ||||||
19 | equal to the insured's bodily
injury liability limits unless | ||||||
20 | specifically rejected by the insured as provided in paragraph | ||||||
21 | (2) of this Section. Each
insurance company providing the | ||||||
22 | coverage must provide applicants with a
brief description of | ||||||
23 | the coverage and advise them of their right to reject
the | ||||||
24 | coverage in excess of the limits set forth in Section 7-203 of | ||||||
25 | the
Illinois Vehicle Code. The provisions of this amendatory |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | Act of 1990 apply
to policies of insurance applied for after | ||||||
2 | June 30, 1991.
| ||||||
3 | (2) Right of rejection of additional uninsured motorist
| ||||||
4 | coverage. Any named insured or applicant may reject additional | ||||||
5 | uninsured
motorist coverage in excess of the limits set forth | ||||||
6 | in Section 7-203
of the Illinois Vehicle Code by making a | ||||||
7 | written request for limits of uninsured motorist coverage | ||||||
8 | which are less than bodily injury liability limits or a | ||||||
9 | written rejection of limits in excess of those required by | ||||||
10 | law. This election or rejection shall be binding on all | ||||||
11 | persons insured under the policy. In those cases where the | ||||||
12 | insured has elected
to purchase limits of uninsured motorist | ||||||
13 | coverage which are less than
bodily injury liability limits or | ||||||
14 | to reject limits in excess of those
required by law, the | ||||||
15 | insurer need not provide in any renewal,
reinstatement, | ||||||
16 | reissuance, substitute, amended, replacement or
supplementary | ||||||
17 | policy, coverage in excess of that elected by the insured in
| ||||||
18 | connection with a policy previously issued to such insured by | ||||||
19 | the same
insurer unless the insured subsequently makes a | ||||||
20 | written request for
such coverage.
| ||||||
21 | (3) The original document indicating the applicant's | ||||||
22 | selection of
uninsured motorist coverage limits shall | ||||||
23 | constitute sufficient evidence of
the applicant's selection of | ||||||
24 | uninsured motorist coverage limits. For purposes of this
| ||||||
25 | Section any reproduction of the document by means of | ||||||
26 | photograph,
photostat, microfiche, computerized optical |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | imaging process, or other
similar process or means of | ||||||
2 | reproduction shall be deemed the equivalent of
the original | ||||||
3 | document.
| ||||||
4 | (4) For the purpose of this Code the term "underinsured | ||||||
5 | motor vehicle"
means a motor vehicle whose ownership, | ||||||
6 | maintenance or use has resulted in
bodily injury or death of | ||||||
7 | the insured, as defined in the policy, and for
which the sum of | ||||||
8 | the limits of liability under all bodily injury liability
| ||||||
9 | insurance policies or under bonds or other security required | ||||||
10 | to be
maintained under Illinois law applicable to the driver | ||||||
11 | or to the person or
organization legally responsible for such | ||||||
12 | vehicle and applicable to the
vehicle, is less than the limits | ||||||
13 | for underinsured coverage provided the
insured as defined in | ||||||
14 | the policy at the time of the crash accident . The limits
of | ||||||
15 | liability for an insurer providing underinsured motorist | ||||||
16 | coverage shall
be the limits of such coverage, less those | ||||||
17 | amounts actually recovered under
the applicable bodily injury | ||||||
18 | insurance policies, bonds or other security
maintained on the | ||||||
19 | underinsured motor vehicle.
| ||||||
20 | On or after July 1, 1983, no policy insuring against loss | ||||||
21 | resulting
from liability imposed by law for bodily injury or | ||||||
22 | death suffered by any
person arising out of the ownership, | ||||||
23 | maintenance or use of a motor vehicle
shall be renewed or | ||||||
24 | delivered or issued for delivery in this State with respect
to | ||||||
25 | any motor vehicle designed for use on public highways and | ||||||
26 | required to be
registered in this State unless underinsured |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | motorist coverage is included
in such policy in an amount | ||||||
2 | equal to the total amount of uninsured motorist
coverage | ||||||
3 | provided in that policy where such uninsured motorist coverage
| ||||||
4 | exceeds the limits set forth in Section 7-203 of the Illinois | ||||||
5 | Vehicle Code.
| ||||||
6 | The changes made to this subsection (4) by this amendatory | ||||||
7 | Act of the 93rd General Assembly apply to policies issued or | ||||||
8 | renewed on or after December 1, 2004.
| ||||||
9 | (5) Scope. Nothing herein shall prohibit an insurer from | ||||||
10 | setting forth
policy terms and conditions which provide that | ||||||
11 | if the insured has coverage
available under this Section under | ||||||
12 | more than one policy or provision of
coverage, any recovery or | ||||||
13 | benefits may be equal to, but may not exceed,
the higher of the | ||||||
14 | applicable limits of the respective coverage, and the
limits | ||||||
15 | of liability under this Section shall not be increased because
| ||||||
16 | of multiple motor vehicles covered under the same policy of | ||||||
17 | insurance.
Insurers providing liability coverage on an excess | ||||||
18 | or umbrella basis are
neither required to provide, nor are | ||||||
19 | they prohibited from offering or
making available coverages | ||||||
20 | conforming to this Section on a supplemental
basis. | ||||||
21 | Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section, an insurer | ||||||
22 | shall
not be prohibited from solely providing a combination of | ||||||
23 | uninsured and
underinsured motorist coverages where the limits | ||||||
24 | of liability under each
coverage is in the same amount.
| ||||||
25 | (6) Subrogation against underinsured motorists. No insurer | ||||||
26 | shall exercise
any right of subrogation under a policy |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | providing additional uninsured motorist
coverage against an | ||||||
2 | underinsured motorist where the insurer has been provided
with | ||||||
3 | written notice in advance of a settlement between its insured | ||||||
4 | and the
underinsured motorist and the insurer fails to advance | ||||||
5 | a payment to
the insured, in an amount equal to the tentative | ||||||
6 | settlement, within 30 days
following receipt of such notice.
| ||||||
7 | (7) A policy which provides underinsured motor vehicle | ||||||
8 | coverage may
include a clause which denies payment until the | ||||||
9 | limits of liability or
portion thereof under
all bodily injury | ||||||
10 | liability insurance policies applicable to the
underinsured | ||||||
11 | motor vehicle and its operators have been partially or fully
| ||||||
12 | exhausted
by payment
of judgment or settlement. A judgment or | ||||||
13 | settlement of the bodily injury
claim in an amount less than | ||||||
14 | the limits of liability of the bodily injury
coverages | ||||||
15 | applicable to the claim shall not preclude the claimant from | ||||||
16 | making
an underinsured motorist claim against the underinsured | ||||||
17 | motorist coverage.
Any such provision in a policy of insurance
| ||||||
18 | shall be inapplicable if the insured, or the legal | ||||||
19 | representative of the
insured, and the insurer providing | ||||||
20 | underinsured motor vehicle coverage
agree that the insured has | ||||||
21 | suffered bodily injury or death as the result of
the negligent | ||||||
22 | operation, maintenance, or use of an underinsured motor
| ||||||
23 | vehicle and, without arbitration, agree also on the amount of | ||||||
24 | damages that
the insured is legally entitled to collect. The | ||||||
25 | maximum amount payable
pursuant to such an underinsured motor | ||||||
26 | vehicle insurance settlement
agreement shall not exceed the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | amount by which the limits of the
underinsured motorist | ||||||
2 | coverage exceed the limits of the bodily injury
liability | ||||||
3 | insurance of the owner or operator of the underinsured motor
| ||||||
4 | vehicle. Any such agreement shall be final as to the amount due | ||||||
5 | and shall
be binding upon both the insured and the | ||||||
6 | underinsured motorist insurer
regardless of the amount of any | ||||||
7 | judgment, or any settlement reached between
any insured and | ||||||
8 | the person or persons responsible for the crash accident . No
| ||||||
9 | such settlement agreement shall be concluded unless: (i) the | ||||||
10 | insured has
complied with all other applicable policy terms | ||||||
11 | and conditions; and (ii)
before the conclusion of the | ||||||
12 | settlement agreement, the insured has filed
suit against the | ||||||
13 | underinsured motor vehicle owner or operator and has not
| ||||||
14 | abandoned the suit, or settled the suit without preserving the | ||||||
15 | rights of
the insurer providing underinsured motor vehicle | ||||||
16 | coverage in the manner
described in paragraph (6) of this | ||||||
17 | Section.
| ||||||
18 | (Source: P.A. 93-762, eff. 7-16-04 .)
| ||||||
19 | Section 60. The Child Care Act of 1969 is amended by | ||||||
20 | changing Section 5.1 as follows:
| ||||||
21 | (225 ILCS 10/5.1) (from Ch. 23, par. 2215.1)
| ||||||
22 | Sec. 5.1. (a) The Department shall ensure that no day care | ||||||
23 | center, group
home or child care institution as defined in | ||||||
24 | this Act shall on a regular
basis transport a child or children |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | with any motor vehicle unless such
vehicle is operated by a | ||||||
2 | person who complies with the following requirements:
| ||||||
3 | 1. is 21 years of age or older;
| ||||||
4 | 2. currently holds a valid driver's license, which has | ||||||
5 | not been revoked
or suspended for one or more traffic | ||||||
6 | violations during the 3 years
immediately prior to the | ||||||
7 | date of application;
| ||||||
8 | 3. demonstrates physical fitness to operate vehicles | ||||||
9 | by submitting the
results of a medical examination | ||||||
10 | conducted by a licensed physician;
| ||||||
11 | 4. has not been convicted of more than 2 offenses | ||||||
12 | against traffic
regulations governing the movement of | ||||||
13 | vehicles within a twelve month period;
| ||||||
14 | 5. has not been convicted of reckless driving or | ||||||
15 | driving under the
influence or manslaughter or reckless | ||||||
16 | homicide resulting from the
operation of a motor vehicle | ||||||
17 | within the past 3 years;
| ||||||
18 | 6. has signed and submitted a written statement | ||||||
19 | certifying that he has
not, through the unlawful operation | ||||||
20 | of a motor vehicle, caused a crash an accident
which | ||||||
21 | resulted in the death of any person within the 5 years | ||||||
22 | immediately
prior to the date of application.
| ||||||
23 | However, such day care centers, group homes and child care | ||||||
24 | institutions
may provide for transportation of a child or | ||||||
25 | children for special outings,
functions or purposes that are | ||||||
26 | not scheduled on a regular basis without
verification that |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | drivers for such purposes meet the requirements of this
| ||||||
2 | Section.
| ||||||
3 | (a-5) As a means of ensuring compliance with the | ||||||
4 | requirements set forth in subsection (a), the Department shall | ||||||
5 | implement appropriate measures to verify that every individual | ||||||
6 | who is employed at a group home or child care institution meets | ||||||
7 | those requirements. | ||||||
8 | For every individual employed at a group home or child | ||||||
9 | care institution who regularly transports children in the | ||||||
10 | course of performing his or her duties, the Department must | ||||||
11 | make the verification every 2 years. Upon the Department's | ||||||
12 | request, the Secretary of State shall provide the Department | ||||||
13 | with the information necessary to enable the Department to | ||||||
14 | make the verifications required under subsection (a). | ||||||
15 | In the case of an individual employed at a group home or | ||||||
16 | child care institution who becomes subject to subsection (a) | ||||||
17 | for the first time after the effective date of this amendatory | ||||||
18 | Act of the 94th General Assembly, the Department must make | ||||||
19 | that verification with the Secretary of State before the | ||||||
20 | individual operates a motor vehicle to transport a child or | ||||||
21 | children under the circumstances described in subsection (a). | ||||||
22 | In the case of an individual employed at a group home or | ||||||
23 | child care institution who is subject to subsection (a) on the | ||||||
24 | effective date of this amendatory Act of the 94th General | ||||||
25 | Assembly, the Department must make that verification with the | ||||||
26 | Secretary of State within 30 days after that effective date. |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | If the Department discovers that an individual fails to | ||||||
2 | meet the requirements set forth in subsection (a), the | ||||||
3 | Department shall promptly notify the appropriate group home or | ||||||
4 | child care institution.
| ||||||
5 | (b) Any individual who holds a valid Illinois school bus | ||||||
6 | driver permit
issued by the Secretary of State
pursuant to The | ||||||
7 | Illinois
Vehicle Code, and who is currently employed by a | ||||||
8 | school district or parochial
school, or by a contractor with a | ||||||
9 | school district or parochial school, to
drive a school bus | ||||||
10 | transporting children to and from school,
shall be deemed in | ||||||
11 | compliance with the requirements of subsection (a).
| ||||||
12 | (c) The Department may, pursuant to Section 8 of this Act, | ||||||
13 | revoke the
license of any day care center, group home or child | ||||||
14 | care institution that
fails to meet the requirements of this | ||||||
15 | Section.
| ||||||
16 | (d) A group home or child care institution that
fails to | ||||||
17 | meet the requirements of this Section is guilty of a petty | ||||||
18 | offense and is subject to a fine of not more than $1,000. Each | ||||||
19 | day that a group home or child care institution fails to meet | ||||||
20 | the requirements of this Section is a separate offense.
| ||||||
21 | (Source: P.A. 94-943, eff. 1-1-07.)
| ||||||
22 | Section 65. The Liquor Control Act of 1934 is amended by | ||||||
23 | changing Section 6-29.1 as follows:
| ||||||
24 | (235 ILCS 5/6-29.1)
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | Sec. 6-29.1. Direct shipments of alcoholic liquor. | ||||||
2 | (a) The General Assembly makes the following findings: | ||||||
3 | (1) The General Assembly of Illinois, having reviewed
| ||||||
4 | this Act in light of the United
States Supreme Court's | ||||||
5 | 2005 decision in Granholm v. Heald,
has determined to | ||||||
6 | conform that law to the constitutional
principles | ||||||
7 | enunciated by the Court in a manner that best
preserves | ||||||
8 | the temperance, revenue, and orderly
distribution values | ||||||
9 | of this Act. | ||||||
10 | (2) Minimizing automobile crashes accidents and | ||||||
11 | fatalities,
domestic violence, health problems, loss of | ||||||
12 | productivity,
unemployment, and other social problems | ||||||
13 | associated with
dependency and improvident use of | ||||||
14 | alcoholic beverages
remains the policy of Illinois. | ||||||
15 | (3) To the maximum extent constitutionally feasible,
| ||||||
16 | Illinois desires to collect sufficient revenue from excise
| ||||||
17 | and use taxes on alcoholic beverages for the purpose of
| ||||||
18 | responding to such social problems. | ||||||
19 | (4) Combined with family education and individual
| ||||||
20 | discipline, retail validation of age, and assessment of | ||||||
21 | the
capacity of the consumer remains the best pre-sale | ||||||
22 | social
protection against the problems associated with the | ||||||
23 | abuse
of alcoholic liquor. | ||||||
24 | (5) Therefore, the paramount purpose of this | ||||||
25 | amendatory Act is to
continue to carefully limit direct | ||||||
26 | shipment sales of wine produced by makers of wine
and to |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | continue to prohibit such direct shipment sales for
| ||||||
2 | spirits and beer. | ||||||
3 | For these reasons, the Commission shall establish
a system | ||||||
4 | to notify the out-of-state trade of this prohibition
and to | ||||||
5 | detect violations. The Commission shall request
the Attorney | ||||||
6 | General to extradite any offender.
| ||||||
7 | (b) Pursuant to the
Twenty-First Amendment of the United | ||||||
8 | States Constitution allowing states to
regulate the | ||||||
9 | distribution and sale of alcoholic liquor and pursuant to the
| ||||||
10 | federal Webb-Kenyon Act declaring that alcoholic liquor | ||||||
11 | shipped in interstate
commerce must comply with state laws, | ||||||
12 | the General Assembly hereby finds and
declares that selling | ||||||
13 | alcoholic liquor from a point outside this State
through | ||||||
14 | various direct marketing means, such as catalogs,
newspapers, | ||||||
15 | mailers, and the Internet,
directly to residents of this State | ||||||
16 | poses a serious threat
to the State's efforts to prevent | ||||||
17 | youths from accessing alcoholic liquor;
to State revenue | ||||||
18 | collections; and to the economy of this State.
| ||||||
19 | Any person manufacturing, distributing, or selling
| ||||||
20 | alcoholic liquor who knowingly ships or transports or causes | ||||||
21 | the shipping or
transportation of any alcoholic liquor from a | ||||||
22 | point outside this State to a
person in this State who does not | ||||||
23 | hold a manufacturer's, distributor's,
importing distributor's, | ||||||
24 | or non-resident dealer's license issued by the Liquor
Control | ||||||
25 | Commission, other than a shipment of sacramental wine to a | ||||||
26 | bona fide
religious organization, a shipment authorized by |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | Section 6-29, subparagraph (17) of Section 3-12, or any other
| ||||||
2 | shipment authorized by this Act, is in violation of this Act.
| ||||||
3 | The Commission, upon determining, after investigation, | ||||||
4 | that a person
has violated this Section, shall give notice to | ||||||
5 | the person by certified mail to
cease and desist all shipments | ||||||
6 | of
alcoholic liquor into this State and to withdraw from this | ||||||
7 | State within 5
working days after receipt of the notice all | ||||||
8 | shipments of alcoholic liquor then
in transit. A person who | ||||||
9 | violates the cease and desist notice is subject to the | ||||||
10 | applicable penalties in subsection (a) of Section 10-1 of this | ||||||
11 | Act.
| ||||||
12 | (Source: P.A. 99-904, eff. 1-1-17 .)
| ||||||
13 | Section 70. The Suicide Prevention, Education, and | ||||||
14 | Treatment Act is amended by changing Section 5 as follows: | ||||||
15 | (410 ILCS 53/5)
| ||||||
16 | Sec. 5. Legislative findings.
The General Assembly makes | ||||||
17 | the following findings:
| ||||||
18 | (1) 1,474 Illinoisans lost their lives to suicide in | ||||||
19 | 2017. During 2016, suicide was the eleventh leading cause | ||||||
20 | of death in Illinois, causing more deaths than homicide, | ||||||
21 | motor vehicle crashes accidents , accidental falls, and | ||||||
22 | numerous prevalent diseases, including liver disease, | ||||||
23 | hypertension, influenza/pneumonia, Parkinson's disease, | ||||||
24 | and HIV. Suicide was the third leading cause of death of |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | ages 15 to 34 and the fourth leading cause of death of ages | ||||||
2 | 35 to 54. Those living outside of urban areas are | ||||||
3 | particularly at risk for suicide, with a rate that is 50% | ||||||
4 | higher than those living in urban areas. | ||||||
5 | (2) For every person who dies by suicide, more than 30 | ||||||
6 | others attempt suicide. | ||||||
7 | (3) Each suicide attempt and death impacts countless | ||||||
8 | other individuals. Family members, friends, co-workers, | ||||||
9 | and others in the community all suffer the long-lasting | ||||||
10 | consequences of suicidal behaviors. | ||||||
11 | (4) Suicide attempts and deaths by suicide have an | ||||||
12 | economic impact on Illinois. The National Center for | ||||||
13 | Injury Prevention and Control estimates that in 2010 each | ||||||
14 | suicide death in Illinois resulted in $1,181,549 in | ||||||
15 | medical costs and work loss costs. It also estimated that | ||||||
16 | each hospitalization for self-harm resulted in $31,019 in | ||||||
17 | medical costs and work loss costs and each emergency room | ||||||
18 | visit for self-harm resulted in $4,546 in medical costs | ||||||
19 | and work loss costs. | ||||||
20 | (5) In 2004, the Illinois General Assembly passed the | ||||||
21 | Suicide Prevention, Education, and Treatment Act (Public | ||||||
22 | Act 93-907), which required the Illinois Department of | ||||||
23 | Public Health to establish the Illinois Suicide Prevention | ||||||
24 | Strategic Planning Committee to develop the Illinois | ||||||
25 | Suicide Prevention Strategic Plan. That law required the | ||||||
26 | use of the 2002 United States Surgeon General's National |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | Suicide Prevention Strategy as a model for the Plan. | ||||||
2 | Public Act 95-109 changed the name of the committee to the | ||||||
3 | Illinois Suicide Prevention Alliance. The Illinois Suicide | ||||||
4 | Prevention Strategic Plan was submitted in 2007 and | ||||||
5 | updated in 2018. | ||||||
6 | (6) In 2004, there were 1,028 suicide deaths in | ||||||
7 | Illinois, which the Centers for Disease Control reports | ||||||
8 | was an age-adjusted rate of 8.11 deaths per 100,000. The | ||||||
9 | Centers for Disease Control reports that the 1,474 suicide | ||||||
10 | deaths in 2017 result in an age-adjusted rate of 11.19 | ||||||
11 | deaths per 100,000. Thus, since the enactment of Public | ||||||
12 | Act 93-907, the rate of suicides in Illinois has risen by | ||||||
13 | 38%. | ||||||
14 | (7) Since the enactment of Public Act 93-907, there | ||||||
15 | have been numerous developments in suicide prevention, | ||||||
16 | including the issuance of the 2012 National Strategy for | ||||||
17 | Suicide Prevention by the United States Surgeon General | ||||||
18 | and the National Action Alliance for Suicide Prevention | ||||||
19 | containing new strategies and recommended activities for | ||||||
20 | local governmental bodies. | ||||||
21 | (8) Despite the obvious impact of suicide on Illinois | ||||||
22 | citizens, Illinois has devoted minimal resources to its | ||||||
23 | prevention. There is no full-time coordinator or director | ||||||
24 | of suicide prevention activities in the State. Moreover, | ||||||
25 | the Suicide Prevention Strategic Plan is still modeled on | ||||||
26 | the now obsolete 2002 National Suicide Prevention |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | Strategy. | ||||||
2 | (9) It is necessary to revise the Suicide Prevention | ||||||
3 | Strategic Plan to reflect the most current National | ||||||
4 | Suicide Prevention Strategy as well as current research | ||||||
5 | and experience into the prevention of suicide. | ||||||
6 | (10) One of the goals adopted in the 2012 National | ||||||
7 | Strategy for Suicide Prevention is to promote suicide | ||||||
8 | prevention as a core component of health care services so | ||||||
9 | there is an active engagement of health and social | ||||||
10 | services, as well as the coordination of care across | ||||||
11 | multiple settings, thereby ensuring continuity of care and | ||||||
12 | promoting patient safety. | ||||||
13 | (11) Integrating suicide prevention into behavioral | ||||||
14 | and physical health care services can save lives. National | ||||||
15 | data indicate that: over 30% of individuals are receiving | ||||||
16 | mental health care at the time of their deaths by suicide; | ||||||
17 | 45% have seen their primary care physicians within one | ||||||
18 | month of their deaths; and 25% of those who die of suicide | ||||||
19 | visited an emergency department in the year prior to their | ||||||
20 | deaths. | ||||||
21 | (12) The Zero Suicide model is a part of the National | ||||||
22 | Strategy for Suicide Prevention, a priority of the | ||||||
23 | National Action Alliance for Suicide Prevention, and a | ||||||
24 | project of the Suicide Prevention Resource Center that | ||||||
25 | implements the goal of making suicide prevention a core | ||||||
26 | component of health care services. |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (13) The Zero Suicide model is built on the | ||||||
2 | foundational belief and aspirational goal that suicide | ||||||
3 | deaths of individuals who are under the care of our health | ||||||
4 | care systems are preventable with the adoption of | ||||||
5 | comprehensive training, patient engagement, transition, | ||||||
6 | and quality improvement. | ||||||
7 | (14) Health care systems, including mental and | ||||||
8 | behavioral health systems and hospitals, that have | ||||||
9 | implemented the Zero Suicide model have noted significant | ||||||

17 | Section 75. The Compassionate Use of Medical Cannabis | ||||||
18 | Program Act is amended by changing Section 5 as follows: | ||||||
19 | (410 ILCS 130/5)
| ||||||
20 | Sec. 5. Findings.
| ||||||
21 | (a) The recorded use of cannabis as a medicine goes back | ||||||
22 | nearly 5,000 years. Modern medical research has confirmed the | ||||||
23 | beneficial uses of cannabis in treating or alleviating the | ||||||
24 | pain, nausea, and other symptoms associated with a variety of |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | debilitating medical conditions, including cancer, multiple | ||||||
2 | sclerosis, and HIV/AIDS, as found by the National Academy of | ||||||
3 | Sciences' Institute of Medicine in March 1999.
| ||||||
4 | (b) Studies published since the 1999 Institute of Medicine | ||||||
5 | report continue to show the therapeutic value of cannabis in | ||||||
6 | treating a wide array of debilitating medical conditions. | ||||||
7 | These include relief of the neuropathic pain caused by | ||||||
8 | multiple sclerosis, HIV/AIDS, and other illnesses that often | ||||||
9 | fail to respond to conventional treatments and relief of | ||||||
10 | nausea, vomiting, and other side effects of drugs used to | ||||||
11 | treat HIV/AIDS and hepatitis C, increasing the chances of | ||||||
12 | patients continuing on life-saving treatment regimens.
| ||||||
13 | (c) Cannabis has many currently accepted medical uses in | ||||||
14 | the United States, having been recommended by thousands of | ||||||
15 | licensed physicians to at least 600,000 patients in states | ||||||
16 | with medical cannabis laws. The medical utility of cannabis is | ||||||
17 | recognized by a wide range of medical and public health | ||||||
18 | organizations, including the American Academy of HIV Medicine, | ||||||
19 | the American College of Physicians, the American Nurses | ||||||
20 | Association, the American Public Health Association, the | ||||||
21 | Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, and many others.
| ||||||
22 | (d) Data from the Federal Bureau of Investigation's | ||||||
23 | Uniform Crime Reports and the Compendium of Federal Justice | ||||||
24 | Statistics show that approximately 99 out of every 100 | ||||||
25 | cannabis arrests in the U.S. are made under state law, rather | ||||||
26 | than under federal law. Consequently, changing State law will |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | have the practical effect of protecting from arrest the vast | ||||||
2 | majority of seriously ill patients who have a medical need to | ||||||
3 | use cannabis.
| ||||||
4 | (d-5) In 2014, the Task Force on Veterans' Suicide was | ||||||
5 | created by the Illinois General Assembly to gather data on | ||||||
6 | veterans' suicide prevention. Data from a U.S. Department of | ||||||
7 | Veterans Affairs study indicates that 22 veterans commit | ||||||
8 | suicide each day. | ||||||
9 | (d-10) According to the State of Illinois Opioid Action
| ||||||
10 | Plan released in September 2017, "The opioid epidemic is the
| ||||||
11 | most significant public health and public safety crisis facing
| ||||||
12 | Illinois".
According to the Action Plan, "Fueled by the | ||||||
13 | growing opioid
epidemic, drug overdoses have now become the | ||||||
14 | leading cause of
death nationwide for people under the age of | ||||||
15 | 50. In Illinois,
opioid overdoses have killed nearly 11,000 | ||||||
16 | people since 2008.
Just last year, nearly 1,900 people died of | ||||||
17 | overdoses—almost
twice the number of fatal car crashes | ||||||
18 | accidents . Beyond these deaths
are thousands of emergency | ||||||
19 | department visits, hospital stays,
as well as the pain | ||||||
20 | suffered by individuals, families, and
communities". | ||||||
21 | According to the Action Plan, "At the current rate, the
| ||||||
22 | opioid epidemic will claim the lives of more than 2,700
| ||||||
23 | Illinoisans in 2020". | ||||||
24 | Further, the Action Plan states, "Physical tolerance to
| ||||||
25 | opioids can begin to develop as early as two to three days
| ||||||
26 | following the continuous use of opioids, which is a large
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | factor that contributes to their addictive potential". | ||||||
2 | The 2017 State of Illinois Opioid Action Plan also states,
| ||||||
3 | "The increase in OUD [opioid use disorder] and opioid overdose
| ||||||
4 | deaths is largely due to the dramatic rise in the rate and
| ||||||
5 | amount of opioids prescribed for pain over the past decades". | ||||||
6 | Further, according to the Action Plan, "In the absence of
| ||||||
7 | alternative treatments, reducing the supply of prescription | ||||||
8 | opioids too abruptly may drive more people to switch to using
| ||||||
9 | illicit drugs (including heroin), thus increasing the risk of
| ||||||
10 | overdose". | ||||||
11 | (e) Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, | ||||||
12 | Delaware, Hawaii, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Montana, | ||||||
13 | Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, | ||||||
14 | Washington, and Washington, D.C. have removed state-level | ||||||
15 | criminal penalties from the medical use and cultivation of | ||||||
16 | cannabis. Illinois joins in this effort for the health and | ||||||
17 | welfare of its citizens.
| ||||||
18 | (f) States are not required to enforce federal law or | ||||||
19 | prosecute people for engaging in activities prohibited by | ||||||
20 | federal law. Therefore, compliance with this Act does not put | ||||||
21 | the State of Illinois in violation of federal law.
| ||||||
22 | (g) State law should make a distinction between the | ||||||
23 | medical and non-medical uses of cannabis. Hence, the purpose | ||||||
24 | of this Act is to protect patients with debilitating medical | ||||||
25 | conditions, as well as their physicians and providers, from | ||||||
26 | arrest and prosecution, criminal and other penalties, and |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | property forfeiture if the patients engage in the medical use | ||||||
2 | of cannabis.

4 | Section 80. The Burn Injury Reporting Act is amended by | ||||||
5 | changing Section 5 as follows: | ||||||
6 | (425 ILCS 7/5)
| ||||||
7 | Sec. 5. Burn injury reporting. | ||||||
8 | (a) Every case of a burn injury treated in a hospital as | ||||||
9 | described in this Act may be reported to the Office of the | ||||||
10 | State Fire Marshal. The hospital's administrator, manager, | ||||||
11 | superintendent, or his or her designee deciding to report | ||||||
12 | under this Act shall make an oral report of every burn injury | ||||||
13 | in a timely manner as soon as treatment permits, except as | ||||||
14 | provided in subsection (c) of this Section, that meets one of | ||||||
15 | the following criteria: | ||||||
16 | (1) a person receives a serious second-degree burn or | ||||||
17 | a third degree burn, but not a radiation burn, to 10% or | ||||||
18 | more of the person's body as a whole; | ||||||
19 | (2) a person sustains a burn to the upper respiratory | ||||||
20 | tract or occurring laryngeal edema due to the inhalation | ||||||
21 | of superheated air; | ||||||
22 | (3) a person sustains any burn injury likely to result | ||||||
23 | in death; or | ||||||
24 | (4) a person sustains any other burn injury not |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | excluded by subsection (c). | ||||||
2 | (b) The oral report shall consist of notification by | ||||||
3 | telephone to the Office of the State Fire Marshal using a | ||||||
4 | toll-free number established by the Office of the State Fire | ||||||
5 | Marshal for this purpose. | ||||||
6 | (c) A hospital's administrator, manager, superintendent, | ||||||
7 | or his or her designee deciding to report under this Act shall | ||||||
8 | not report any of the following burn injuries: | ||||||
9 | (1) a burn injury of an emergency medical responder, | ||||||
10 | as defined in Section 3.50 of the Emergency Medical | ||||||
11 | Services (EMS) Systems Act, sustained in the line of duty; | ||||||
12 | (2) a burn injury caused by lighting; | ||||||
13 | (3) a burn injury caused by a motor vehicle crash | ||||||
14 | accident ; or | ||||||
15 | (4) a burn injury caused by an identifiable industrial | ||||||
16 | accident or work-related accident.

18 | Section 85. The Illinois Public Health and Safety Animal | ||||||
19 | Population Control Act is amended by changing Section 5 as | ||||||
20 | follows: | ||||||
21 | (510 ILCS 92/5)
| ||||||
22 | Sec. 5. Findings. The General Assembly finds the | ||||||
23 | following:
| ||||||
24 | (1) Controlling the dog and cat population would have |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | a significant benefit to the public health and safety by | ||||||
2 | aiding in the prevention of dog attacks, reducing the | ||||||
3 | number of dog and cat bite cases involving children, and | ||||||
4 | decreasing the number of automobile crashes accidents | ||||||
5 | caused by stray dogs and cats.
| ||||||
6 | (2) Increasing the number of rabies-vaccinated, owned | ||||||
7 | pets in low-income areas will reduce potential threats to | ||||||
8 | public health and safety from rabies.
| ||||||
9 | (3) Controlling the dog and cat population will save | ||||||
10 | taxpayer dollars by reducing the number of dogs and cats | ||||||
11 | handled by county and municipal animal control agencies. | ||||||
12 | Targeted low-cost spay or neuter programs for dogs and | ||||||
13 | cats in select Illinois counties and other states have | ||||||
14 | proven to save taxpayers money. | ||||||
15 | (4) This Act is established to provide a variety of | ||||||
16 | means by which population control and rabies vaccinations | ||||||
17 | may be financed.

19 | Section 90. The Illinois Highway Code is amended by | ||||||
20 | changing Section 1-102 as follows:
| ||||||
21 | (605 ILCS 5/1-102) (from Ch. 121, par. 1-102)
| ||||||
22 | Sec. 1-102.
It is the intent and declared policy of the | ||||||
23 | legislature
that an integrated system of highways and streets | ||||||
24 | is essential to the
general welfare and to the agricultural, |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | industrial, recreational, and
social development of the State. | ||||||
2 | In view of the rapid growth of the
State's economy and | ||||||
3 | increased use of public highways, the provision of
safe and | ||||||
4 | efficient highway transportation is a matter of public | ||||||
5 | concern.
It is the declared and continuous policy of the | ||||||
6 | legislature to provide
for improvement of highways and the | ||||||
7 | highway transportation system as
well as the preservation of | ||||||
8 | investment in highways. To that end it is
intended to provide | ||||||
9 | for integrated and systematic planning and orderly
development | ||||||
10 | in accordance with actual needs. It is further declared that
| ||||||
11 | the provision of such a system with efficient management, | ||||||
12 | operation, and
control, and the elimination of congestion, | ||||||
13 | crash accident reduction, and
safety is an urgent problem and | ||||||
14 | proper objective of highway legislation.
It is further | ||||||
15 | declared that highway transportation system development
| ||||||
16 | requires the cooperation of State, county, township, and | ||||||
17 | municipal
highway agencies and coordination of their | ||||||
18 | activities on a continuous
and partnership basis and the | ||||||
19 | legislature intends such cooperative
relationships to | ||||||
20 | accomplish this purpose.
| ||||||
21 | It is also the intent and declared policy of the | ||||||
22 | legislature that no
public moneys derived from fees, excises | ||||||
23 | or license taxes relating to
registration, operation and use | ||||||
24 | of vehicles on public highways or to
fuels used for the | ||||||
25 | propulsion of such vehicles, shall be appropriated or
expended | ||||||
26 | other than for costs of administering the laws imposing such
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | fees, excises and license taxes, statutory refunds and | ||||||
2 | adjustments
allowed thereunder, highway administrative costs, | ||||||
3 | payment of debts and
liabilities incurred in construction and | ||||||
4 | reconstruction of public
highways and bridges, acquisition of | ||||||
5 | rights-of-way for, and the cost of
construction, | ||||||
6 | reconstruction, maintenance, repair and operation of
public | ||||||
7 | highways and bridges under the direction and supervision of | ||||||
8 | the
State, political subdivision or municipality collecting | ||||||
9 | such moneys, and
the costs for patrolling and policing the | ||||||
10 | public highways (by State, political
subdivision or | ||||||
11 | municipality collecting such money) for enforcement of traffic
| ||||||
12 | laws. The separation of grades of such highways with railroads | ||||||
13 | and costs
associated with protection of at-grade highway and | ||||||
14 | railroad crossings shall
also be permissible.

22 | (a) For purposes of this Section: | ||||||
23 | "Electronic toll collection system" is a system where a | ||||||
24 | transponder, camera-based vehicle identification system, or |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | other electronic medium is used to deduct payment of a toll | ||||||
2 | from a subscriber's account or to establish an obligation to | ||||||
3 | pay a toll. | ||||||
4 | "Electronic toll collection system user" means any natural | ||||||
5 | person who subscribes to an electronic toll collection system | ||||||
6 | or any natural person who uses a tolled transportation | ||||||
7 | facility that employs the Authority's electronic toll | ||||||
8 | collection system. | ||||||
9 | "Personally identifiable information" means any | ||||||
10 | information that identifies or describes an electronic toll | ||||||

15 | (b) Except as otherwise provided in this Section, the | ||||||
16 | Authority may not sell or otherwise provide to any person or | ||||||
17 | entity personally identifiable information of any electronic | ||||||
18 | toll collection system user that the Authority obtains through | ||||||
19 | the operation of its electronic toll collection system. | ||||||
20 | (c) The Authority may, within practical business and cost | ||||||
21 | constraints, store personally identifiable information of an | ||||||
22 | electronic toll collection system user only if the information | ||||||
23 | is required to perform account functions such as billing, | ||||||
24 | account settlement, or toll violation enforcement activities. | ||||||
25 | (d) By no later than December 31, 2011, the Authority | ||||||
26 | shall establish a privacy policy regarding the collection and |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | use of personally identifiable information. Upon its adoption, | ||||||
2 | the policy shall be posted on the Authority's website and a | ||||||
3 | copy shall be included with each transponder transmitted to a | ||||||
4 | user. The policy shall include but need not be limited to the | ||||||
5 | following: | ||||||
6 | (1) A description of the types of personally | ||||||
7 | identifiable information collected by the Authority. | ||||||
8 | (2) The categories of third-party persons or entities | ||||||
9 | with whom the Authority may share personally identifiable | ||||||
10 | information and for what purposes that information is | ||||||
11 | shared. | ||||||
12 | (3) The process by which the Authority notifies | ||||||
13 | electronic toll collection system users of material | ||||||
14 | changes to its privacy policy. | ||||||
15 | (4) The process by which an electronic toll collection | ||||||
16 | system user may review and request changes to any of his or | ||||||
17 | her personally identifiable information. | ||||||
18 | (5) The effective date of the privacy policy. | ||||||
19 | (e) This Section does not prohibit the Authority from: | ||||||
20 | (1) providing aggregated traveler information derived | ||||||
21 | from collective data relating to a group or category of | ||||||
22 | electronic toll collection system users from which | ||||||
23 | personally identifiable information has been removed; | ||||||
24 | (2) sharing data with another transportation agency or | ||||||
25 | third-party vendor to comply with interoperability | ||||||
26 | specifications and standards regarding electronic toll |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | collection devices and technologies, provided that the | ||||||
2 | other transportation agency or third-party vendor may not | ||||||
3 | use personally identifiable information obtained under | ||||||
4 | this Section for a purpose other than described in this | ||||||
5 | Section; | ||||||
6 | (3) performing financial, legal and accounting | ||||||
7 | functions such as billing, account settlement, toll | ||||||
8 | violation enforcement, or other activities required to | ||||||
9 | operate and manage its toll collection system; | ||||||
10 | (4) communicating about products and services offered | ||||||
11 | by itself, a business partner, or another public agency; | ||||||
12 | (5) using personally identifiable information in | ||||||
13 | research projects, provided that appropriate | ||||||
14 | confidentiality restrictions are employed to protect | ||||||
15 | against the unauthorized release of such information; | ||||||
16 | (6) releasing personally identifiable information in | ||||||
17 | response to a warrant, subpoena or lawful order from a | ||||||
18 | court of competent jurisdiction; | ||||||
19 | (7) releasing personally identifiable information to | ||||||
20 | law enforcement agencies in the case of an emergency when | ||||||
21 | obtaining a warrant or subpoena would be impractical; and | ||||||
22 | (8) releasing personally identifiable information to | ||||||
23 | the Authority's Inspector General or, at the Inspector | ||||||
24 | General's direction, to law enforcement agencies under | ||||||
25 | paragraphs (5) and (6) of subsection (f) of Section 8.5 of | ||||||
26 | this Act. |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (f) In any agreement allowing another public entity to use | ||||||
2 | the Authority's toll collection system in a transportation | ||||||
3 | facility, the Authority shall require the other public entity | ||||||
4 | to comply with the requirements of this Section. | ||||||
5 | (g) Personally identifiable information generated through | ||||||
6 | the
Authority's toll collection process that reveals the date, | ||||||
7 | time, location or
direction of travel by an electronic toll | ||||||
8 | collection system user shall be
exempt from release under the | ||||||
9 | Illinois Freedom of Information Act. The
exemption in this | ||||||
10 | subsection shall not apply to information that concerns (i)
| ||||||
11 | the public duties of public employees and officials; (ii) | ||||||
12 | whether an electronic toll

who do not | ||||||
15 | pay tolls; (iv) crashes accidents or other incidents that | ||||||
16 | occur on highways under the jurisdiction of the
Authority; or | ||||||
17 | (v) the obligation, receipt, and use of the funds of the | ||||||

19 | limitation or restriction on other Freedom of Information Act | ||||||
20 | exemptions applicable to personally identifiable information | ||||||
21 | or private information.

| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (605 ILCS 125/23.1) | ||||||
2 | Sec. 23.1. Fatal crash accident memorial marker program. | ||||||
3 | (a) The fatal crash accident memorial marker program is | ||||||
4 | intended to raise public awareness of traffic fatalities | ||||||
5 | caused by reckless driving or other means by emphasizing the | ||||||
6 | dangers while affording families an opportunity to remember | ||||||
7 | the victims of traffic crashes. | ||||||
8 | (b) As used in this Section, "fatal crash accident | ||||||
9 | memorial marker" means a marker on a highway in this State | ||||||
10 | commemorating one or more persons who died as a proximate | ||||||
11 | result of a crash caused by a driver who committed an act of | ||||||
12 | reckless homicide in violation of Section 9-3 or 9-3.2 of the | ||||||
13 | Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012 or who | ||||||
14 | otherwise caused the death of one or more persons through the | ||||||
15 | operation of a motor vehicle. | ||||||
16 | (c) For purposes of the fatal crash accident memorial | ||||||
17 | marker program in this Section, the provisions of Section 15 | ||||||
18 | of this Act applicable to DUI memorial markers shall apply the | ||||||
19 | same to fatal crash accident memorial markers. | ||||||
20 | (d) A fatal crash accident memorial marker shall consist | ||||||
21 | of a white on blue panel bearing the message "Reckless Driving | ||||||
22 | Costs Lives" if the victim or victims died as a proximate | ||||||
23 | result of a crash caused by a driver who committed an act of | ||||||
24 | reckless homicide in violation of Section 9-3 or 9-3.2 of the | ||||||
25 | Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012. Otherwise, | ||||||
26 | a fatal crash accident memorial marker shall consist of a |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | white on blue panel bearing the message "Drive With Care". At | ||||||
2 | the request of the qualified relative, a separate panel | ||||||
3 | bearing the words "In Memory of (victim's name)", followed by | ||||||
4 | the date of the crash that was the proximate cause of the loss | ||||||
5 | of the victim's life, shall be mounted below the primary | ||||||
6 | panel. | ||||||
7 | (e) A fatal crash accident memorial marker may memorialize | ||||||
8 | more than one victim who died as a result of the same crash. If | ||||||
9 | one or more additional deaths subsequently occur in close | ||||||
10 | proximity to an existing fatal crash accident memorial marker, | ||||||
11 | the supporting jurisdiction may use the same marker to | ||||||
12 | memorialize the subsequent death or deaths, by adding the | ||||||
13 | names of the additional persons. | ||||||
14 | (f) A fatal crash accident memorial marker shall be | ||||||
15 | maintained for at least 2 years from the date the last person | ||||||
16 | was memorialized on the marker. | ||||||
17 | (g) The supporting jurisdiction has the right to install a | ||||||
18 | marker at a location other than the location of the crash or to | ||||||
19 | relocate a marker due to restricted room, property owner | ||||||
20 | complaints, interference with essential traffic control | ||||||
21 | devices, safety concerns, or other restrictions. In these | ||||||
22 | cases, the sponsoring jurisdiction may select an alternate | ||||||
23 | location. | ||||||
24 | (h) The Department shall secure the consent of any | ||||||
25 | municipality before placing a fatal crash accident memorial | ||||||
26 | marker within the corporate limits of the municipality. |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (i) A fee in an amount to be determined by the supporting | ||||||
2 | jurisdiction shall be charged to the qualified relative. The | ||||||
3 | fee shall not exceed the costs associated with the | ||||||
4 | fabrication, installation, and maintenance of the fatal crash | ||||||
5 | accident memorial marker. | ||||||
6 | (j) The provisions of this Section shall apply to any | ||||||
7 | fatal crash accident marker constructed on or after January 1, | ||||||
8 | 2013.

26 | service with the authorization of the vehicle owner and proof |
| |||||||

3 | and exceptions to those liens in the case of vehicles towed as | ||||||
4 | a result of being involved in a crash an accident are
exclusive | ||||||
5 | powers and functions of the State. A home
rule unit may not | ||||||

7 | liens in the case of vehicles towed as a result of being | ||||||
8 | involved in a crash an accident . This paragraph (5) is a denial | ||||||

14 | charge for services or
materials rendered in addition to those | ||||||
15 | authorized by this Code.

26 | subsection (a) of Section 11-506 of this Code was not |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | authorized by the registered owner of the vehicle to | ||||||
2 | operate the vehicle at the time of the violation; or | ||||||
3 | (3) If the registered owner of the vehicle was neither | ||||||
4 | the driver nor a passenger in the vehicle at the time of | ||||||
5 | the violation or was unaware that the driver was using the | ||||||
6 | vehicle to engage in street racing; or | ||||||
7 | (4) If the legal owner or registered owner of the | ||||||
8 | vehicle is a rental car agency; or | ||||||
9 | (5) If, prior to the expiration of the impoundment | ||||||
10 | period specified above, the citation is dismissed or the | ||||||
11 | defendant is found not guilty of the offense.

| ||||||
18 | Sec. 5-102. Used vehicle dealers must be licensed.
| ||||||
19 | (a) No person, other than a licensed new vehicle dealer, | ||||||
20 | shall engage in
the business of selling or dealing in, on | ||||||
21 | consignment or otherwise, 5 or
more used vehicles of any make | ||||||
22 | during the year (except house trailers as
authorized by | ||||||
23 | paragraph (j) of this Section and rebuilt salvage vehicles
| ||||||
24 | sold by their rebuilders to persons licensed under this | ||||||
25 | Chapter), or act as

| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | licensed dealer or vehicle
purchaser (other than as a | ||||||

is so engaged | ||||||
3 | or intends to so engage in such business unless licensed to
do | ||||||
4 | so by the Secretary of State under the provisions of this | ||||||
5 | Section.
| ||||||
6 | (b) An application for a used vehicle dealer's license | ||||||
7 | shall be
filed with the Secretary of State, duly verified by | ||||||
8 | oath, in such form
as the Secretary of State may by rule or | ||||||
9 | regulation prescribe and shall
contain:
| ||||||

11 | established and additional
places of business, if any, in | ||||||
12 | this State.
| ||||||

15 | or greater ownership
interest in the corporation, setting | ||||||
16 | forth the residence address of

| ||||||
19 | organization, the names and residence address of the | ||||||
20 | proprietor or of
each partner, member, officer, director, | ||||||

| ||||||
22 | 3. A statement that the applicant has been approved | ||||||
23 | for registration
under the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act | ||||||
24 | by the Department of Revenue. However,
this requirement | ||||||
25 | does not apply to a dealer who is already licensed
| ||||||
26 | hereunder with the Secretary of State, and who is merely |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | applying for a
renewal of his license. As evidence of this | ||||||
2 | fact, the application shall be
accompanied by a | ||||||
3 | certification from the Department of Revenue showing that
| ||||||
4 | the Department has approved the applicant for registration | ||||||
5 | under the
Retailers' Occupation Tax Act.
| ||||||
6 | 4. A statement that the applicant has complied with | ||||||
7 | the appropriate
liability insurance requirement. A | ||||||
8 | Certificate of Insurance in a solvent

9 | to do business in the State of Illinois shall be included
| ||||||
10 | with each application covering each location at which he | ||||||
11 | proposes to act

12 | provide liability coverage in
the minimum amounts of | ||||||
13 | $100,000 for bodily injury to, or death of, any person,
| ||||||
14 | $300,000 for bodily injury to, or death of, two or more | ||||||
15 | persons in any one crash
accident , and $50,000 for damage | ||||||
16 | to property. Such policy shall expire
not sooner than | ||||||
17 | December 31 of the year for which the license was issued
or | ||||||
18 | renewed. The expiration of the insurance policy shall not | ||||||
19 | terminate
the liability under the policy arising during | ||||||
20 | the period for which the policy
was filed. Trailer and | ||||||
21 | mobile home dealers are exempt from this requirement.
| ||||||
22 | If the permitted user has a liability insurance policy | ||||||
23 | that provides
automobile
liability insurance coverage of | ||||||
24 | at least $100,000 for bodily injury to or the
death of any
| ||||||
25 | person, $300,000 for bodily injury to or the death of any 2 | ||||||
26 | or more persons in
any one crash
accident , and $50,000 for |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | damage to property,
then the permitted user's insurer | ||||||
2 | shall be the primary

3 | shall be the secondary insurer. If the permitted user does | ||||||
4 | not
have a liability
insurance policy that provides | ||||||
5 | automobile liability insurance coverage of at
least
| ||||||
6 | $100,000 for bodily injury to or the death of any person, | ||||||
7 | $300,000 for bodily
injury to or
the death of any 2 or more | ||||||
8 | persons in any one crash accident , and $50,000 for damage
| ||||||
9 | to
property, or does not have any insurance at all,
then | ||||||
10 | the
dealer's
insurer shall be the primary insurer and the | ||||||
11 | permitted user's insurer shall be
the secondary
insurer.
| ||||||
12 | When a permitted user is "test driving" a used vehicle | ||||||
13 | dealer's automobile,
the used vehicle dealer's insurance | ||||||
14 | shall be primary and the permitted user's
insurance shall | ||||||
15 | be secondary.
| ||||||
16 | As used in this paragraph 4, a "permitted user" is a | ||||||
17 | person who, with the
permission of the used vehicle dealer | ||||||
18 | or an employee of the used vehicle
dealer, drives a | ||||||
19 | vehicle owned and held for sale or lease by the used | ||||||
20 | vehicle
dealer which the person is considering to purchase | ||||||
21 | or lease, in order to
evaluate the performance, | ||||||
22 | reliability, or condition of the vehicle.
The term | ||||||
23 | "permitted user" also includes a person who, with the | ||||||
24 | permission of
the used
vehicle dealer, drives a vehicle | ||||||
25 | owned or held for sale or lease by the used

| ||||||
2 | As used in this paragraph 4, "test driving" occurs | ||||||
3 | when a permitted user
who,
with the permission of the used | ||||||
4 | vehicle dealer or an employee of the used
vehicle
dealer, | ||||||
5 | drives a vehicle owned and held for sale or lease by a used | ||||||
6 | vehicle
dealer that the person is considering to purchase | ||||||
7 | or lease, in order to
evaluate the performance, | ||||||
8 | reliability, or condition of the
vehicle.
| ||||||
9 | As used in this paragraph 4, "loaner purposes" means | ||||||
10 | when a person who,
with the permission of the used vehicle | ||||||
11 | dealer, drives a vehicle owned or held
for sale or lease by | ||||||
12 | the used vehicle dealer while the
user's vehicle is being | ||||||
13 | repaired or evaluated.
| ||||||
14 | 5. An application for a used vehicle dealer's license | ||||||
15 | shall be
accompanied by the following license fees:
| ||||||
16 | (A) $1,000 for applicant's established place of | ||||||
17 | business, and

| ||||||
8 | (a) A person who has been issued a school bus driver permit | ||||||
9 | by the Secretary
of State in accordance with Section 6-106.1 | ||||||
10 | of this Code and who drives or is
in actual physical control of | ||||||
11 | a school bus
or any other vehicle owned or operated by or for a | ||||||
12 | public or private
school, or a school operated by a religious | ||||||
13 | institution, when the vehicle is
being used over a regularly | ||||||
14 | scheduled route for the transportation of persons
enrolled as | ||||||
15 | students in grade 12 or below, in connection with any activity | ||||||
16 | of
the entities listed, upon the public highways of this State | ||||||
17 | shall be
deemed to have given consent to a chemical test or | ||||||
18 | tests of blood, breath, other bodily substance, or
urine for | ||||||
19 | the purpose of determining the alcohol content of the person's | ||||||
20 | blood
if arrested, as evidenced
by the issuance of a Uniform | ||||||
21 | Traffic Ticket for any violation of this
Code or a similar | ||||||
22 | provision of a local ordinance, if a police officer
has | ||||||
23 | probable cause to believe that the driver has consumed any | ||||||
24 | amount of an
alcoholic beverage based upon evidence of the | ||||||
25 | driver's physical condition
or other first hand knowledge of |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | the police officer. The test or tests shall
be administered at | ||||||
2 | the direction of the arresting officer. The law enforcement
| ||||||
3 | agency employing the officer shall designate which of the | ||||||
4 | aforesaid tests shall
be administered. A urine or other bodily | ||||||
5 | substance test may be administered even after a blood or | ||||||
6 | breath
test or both has been administered.
| ||||||
7 | (b) A person who is dead, unconscious, or who is otherwise | ||||||
8 | in a condition
rendering that person incapable of refusal, | ||||||
9 | shall be deemed not to have
withdrawn the consent provided by | ||||||
10 | paragraph (a) of this Section and the test or
tests may be | ||||||
11 | administered subject to the following provisions:
| ||||||
12 | (1) Chemical analysis of the person's blood, urine, | ||||||
13 | breath, or
other bodily substance,
to be considered valid | ||||||
14 | under the provisions of this Section, shall have been
| ||||||
15 | performed according to standards promulgated by the | ||||||
16 | Illinois State Police by an
individual
possessing a valid | ||||||
17 | permit issued by the Illinois State Police for this
| ||||||
18 | purpose. The
Director of the Illinois State Police is | ||||||
19 | authorized to approve satisfactory techniques
or
methods, | ||||||
20 | to ascertain the qualifications and competence of | ||||||
21 | individuals to
conduct analyses, to issue
permits that | ||||||
22 | shall be subject to termination or revocation at the | ||||||
23 | direction of
the Illinois State Police, and to certify the
| ||||||
24 | accuracy of breath testing
equipment. The
Illinois State | ||||||
25 | Police shall prescribe rules as
necessary.
| ||||||
26 | (2) When a person submits to a blood test at the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | request of a law
enforcement officer under the provisions | ||||||
2 | of this Section, only a physician
authorized to practice | ||||||
3 | medicine, a licensed physician assistant, a licensed | ||||||
4 | advanced practice registered nurse, a registered nurse, or | ||||||
5 | other qualified person
trained in venipuncture and acting | ||||||
6 | under the direction of a licensed physician
may withdraw | ||||||
7 | blood for the purpose of determining the alcohol content.
| ||||||
8 | This limitation does not apply to the taking of breath, | ||||||
9 | other bodily substance, or urine specimens.
| ||||||
10 | (3) The person tested may have a physician, qualified | ||||||
11 | technician, chemist,
registered nurse, or other qualified | ||||||
12 | person of his or her own choosing
administer a chemical | ||||||
13 | test or tests in addition to any test or tests
| ||||||
14 | administered at the direction of a law enforcement | ||||||
15 | officer. The test
administered at the request of the | ||||||
16 | person may be admissible into evidence at a
hearing | ||||||
17 | conducted in accordance with Section 2-118 of this Code. | ||||||
18 | The failure
or inability to obtain an additional test by a | ||||||
19 | person shall not preclude the
consideration of the | ||||||
20 | previously performed chemical test.
| ||||||
21 | (4) Upon a request of the person who submits to a | ||||||
22 | chemical test or tests
at the request of a law enforcement | ||||||
23 | officer, full information concerning the
test or tests | ||||||
24 | shall be made available to the person or that person's
| ||||||
25 | attorney by the requesting law enforcement agency within | ||||||
26 | 72 hours of receipt of
the test result.
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (5) Alcohol concentration means either grams of | ||||||
2 | alcohol per 100
milliliters of blood or grams of alcohol | ||||||
3 | per 210 liters of breath.
| ||||||
4 | (6) If a driver is receiving medical treatment as a | ||||||
5 | result of a motor
vehicle crash accident , a physician | ||||||
6 | licensed to practice medicine, licensed physician | ||||||
7 | assistant, licensed advanced practice registered nurse, | ||||||
8 | registered nurse,
or other qualified person trained in | ||||||
9 | venipuncture and acting under the
direction of a
licensed | ||||||
10 | physician shall withdraw blood for testing purposes to | ||||||
11 | ascertain the
presence of alcohol upon the specific | ||||||
12 | request of a law enforcement officer.
However, that | ||||||
13 | testing shall not be performed until, in the opinion of | ||||||
14 | the
medical personnel on scene, the withdrawal can be made | ||||||
15 | without interfering with
or endangering the well-being of | ||||||
16 | the patient.
| ||||||
17 | (c) A person requested to submit to a test as provided in | ||||||
18 | this Section shall
be warned
by the law enforcement officer | ||||||
19 | requesting the test that a refusal to submit to
the test, or
| ||||||
20 | submission to the test resulting in an alcohol concentration | ||||||
21 | of more than 0.00,
may result
in the loss of that person's | ||||||
22 | privilege to possess a school bus driver
permit. The loss of | ||||||
23 | the individual's privilege to possess a school bus driver
| ||||||
24 | permit shall be imposed in accordance with Section 6-106.1b of | ||||||
25 | this Code. A person requested to submit to a test under this | ||||||
26 | Section shall also acknowledge, in writing, receipt of the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | warning required under this subsection (c). If the person | ||||||
2 | refuses to acknowledge receipt of the warning, the law | ||||||
3 | enforcement officer shall make a written notation on the | ||||||
4 | warning that the person refused to sign the warning. A | ||||||
5 | person's refusal to sign the warning shall not be evidence | ||||||
6 | that the person was not read the warning.
| ||||||
7 | (d) If the person refuses testing or submits to a test that | ||||||
8 | discloses an
alcohol concentration of more than 0.00, the law | ||||||
9 | enforcement officer shall
immediately submit a sworn report to | ||||||
10 | the Secretary of State on a form
prescribed by the Secretary of | ||||||
11 | State certifying that the test or tests were
requested under | ||||||
12 | subsection (a) and the person refused to submit to a test or
| ||||||
13 | tests or submitted to testing which disclosed an alcohol | ||||||
14 | concentration of more
than 0.00. The law enforcement officer | ||||||
15 | shall submit the same sworn report when
a person who has been | ||||||
16 | issued a school bus driver permit and who was operating a
| ||||||
17 | school bus or any other vehicle owned
or operated by or for a | ||||||
18 | public or private school, or a school operated by a
religious | ||||||
19 | institution, when the vehicle is being used over a regularly
| ||||||
20 | scheduled route for the transportation of persons enrolled as | ||||||
21 | students in grade
12 or below, in connection with
any activity | ||||||
22 | of the entities listed, submits to testing under Section | ||||||
23 | 11-501.1
of this Code and the testing discloses an alcohol | ||||||
24 | concentration of more than
0.00 and less than the alcohol | ||||||
25 | concentration at which driving or being in
actual physical | ||||||
26 | control of a motor vehicle is prohibited under paragraph (1) |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | of
subsection (a) of Section 11-501.
| ||||||
2 | Upon receipt of the sworn report of a law enforcement | ||||||
3 | officer, the Secretary
of State shall enter the school bus | ||||||
4 | driver permit sanction on the
individual's driving record and | ||||||
5 | the sanction shall be effective on the
46th day following the | ||||||
6 | date notice of the sanction was given to the person.
| ||||||
7 | The law enforcement officer submitting the sworn report | ||||||
8 | shall serve immediate
notice of this school bus driver permit | ||||||
9 | sanction on the person and the sanction
shall be effective on | ||||||
10 | the 46th day following the date notice was given.
| ||||||
11 | In cases where the blood alcohol concentration of more | ||||||
12 | than 0.00 is
established by a subsequent analysis of blood, | ||||||
13 | other bodily substance, or urine, the police officer or
| ||||||
14 | arresting agency shall give notice as provided in this Section | ||||||
15 | or by deposit in
the United States mail of that notice in an | ||||||
16 | envelope with postage prepaid and
addressed to that person at | ||||||
17 | his or her last known address and the loss of the
school
bus | ||||||
18 | driver permit shall be effective on the 46th day following the | ||||||
19 | date notice
was given.
| ||||||
20 | Upon receipt of the sworn report of a law enforcement | ||||||
21 | officer, the Secretary
of State shall also give notice of the | ||||||
22 | school bus driver permit sanction to the
driver and the | ||||||
23 | driver's current employer by mailing a notice of the effective
| ||||||
24 | date of the sanction to the individual. However, shall the | ||||||
25 | sworn report be
defective by not containing sufficient | ||||||
26 | information or be completed in error,
the notice of the school |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | bus driver permit sanction may not be mailed to the
person or | ||||||
2 | his current employer or entered to the driving record,
but | ||||||
3 | rather the sworn report shall be returned to the issuing law | ||||||
4 | enforcement
agency.
| ||||||
5 | (e) A driver may contest this school bus driver permit | ||||||
6 | sanction by
requesting an administrative hearing with the | ||||||
7 | Secretary of State in accordance
with Section 2-118 of this | ||||||
8 | Code. An individual whose blood alcohol
concentration is shown | ||||||
9 | to be more than 0.00 is not subject to this Section if
he or | ||||||
10 | she consumed alcohol in the performance of a religious service | ||||||
11 | or
ceremony. An individual whose blood alcohol concentration | ||||||
12 | is shown to be more
than 0.00 shall not be subject to this | ||||||
13 | Section if the individual's blood
alcohol concentration | ||||||
14 | resulted only from ingestion of the prescribed or
recommended | ||||||
15 | dosage of medicine that contained alcohol. The petition for | ||||||
16 | that
hearing shall not stay or delay the effective date of the | ||||||
17 | impending suspension.
The scope of this hearing shall be | ||||||
18 | limited to the issues of:
| ||||||
19 | (1) whether the police officer had probable cause to | ||||||
20 | believe that the
person was driving or in actual physical | ||||||
21 | control of a school bus
or any other vehicle owned or | ||||||
22 | operated by or for a
public or private school, or a
school | ||||||
23 | operated by a religious institution, when the vehicle is | ||||||
24 | being used
over a regularly scheduled route for the | ||||||
25 | transportation of persons enrolled as
students in grade 12 | ||||||
26 | or below, in connection with any activity of the entities
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | listed, upon the public highways of the State and the | ||||||
2 | police officer had reason
to believe that the person was | ||||||
3 | in violation of any provision of this
Code or a similar | ||||||
4 | provision of a local ordinance; and
| ||||||
5 | (2) whether the person was issued a Uniform Traffic | ||||||
6 | Ticket for any
violation of this Code or a similar | ||||||
7 | provision of a local
ordinance; and
| ||||||
8 | (3) whether the police officer had probable cause to | ||||||
9 | believe that the
driver had
consumed any amount of an | ||||||
10 | alcoholic beverage based upon the driver's
physical | ||||||
11 | actions or other first-hand knowledge of the police | ||||||
12 | officer; and
| ||||||
13 | (4) whether the person, after being advised by the | ||||||
14 | officer that the
privilege to possess a school bus driver | ||||||
15 | permit would be canceled if the person
refused to submit | ||||||
16 | to and complete the test or tests, did refuse to submit to | ||||||
17 | or
complete the test or tests to determine the person's | ||||||
18 | alcohol concentration; and
| ||||||
19 | (5) whether the person, after being advised by the | ||||||
20 | officer that the
privileges to possess a school bus driver | ||||||
21 | permit would be canceled if the
person submits to a | ||||||
22 | chemical test or tests and the test or tests disclose an
| ||||||
23 | alcohol concentration of more than 0.00 and
the person did | ||||||
24 | submit to and complete the test or tests that determined | ||||||
25 | an
alcohol concentration of more than 0.00; and
| ||||||
26 | (6) whether the test result of an alcohol |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | concentration of more than 0.00
was based upon the | ||||||
2 | person's consumption of alcohol in the performance of a
| ||||||
3 | religious service or ceremony; and
| ||||||
4 | (7) whether the test result of an alcohol | ||||||
5 | concentration of more than 0.00
was based upon the | ||||||
6 | person's consumption of alcohol through ingestion of the
| ||||||
7 | prescribed or recommended dosage of medicine.
| ||||||
8 | The Secretary of State may adopt administrative rules | ||||||
9 | setting forth
circumstances under which the holder of a school | ||||||
10 | bus driver permit is not
required to
appear in
person at the | ||||||
11 | hearing.
| ||||||
12 | Provided that the petitioner may subpoena the officer, the | ||||||
13 | hearing may be
conducted upon a review of the law enforcement | ||||||
14 | officer's own official
reports. Failure of the officer to | ||||||
15 | answer the subpoena shall be grounds for a
continuance if, in | ||||||
16 | the hearing officer's discretion, the continuance is
| ||||||
17 | appropriate. At the conclusion of the hearing held under | ||||||
18 | Section 2-118 of this
Code, the Secretary of State may | ||||||
19 | rescind, continue, or modify
the school bus driver permit | ||||||
20 | sanction.
| ||||||
21 | (f) The results of any chemical testing performed in | ||||||
22 | accordance with
subsection (a) of this Section are not | ||||||
23 | admissible in any civil or criminal
proceeding, except that | ||||||
24 | the results
of the testing may be considered at a hearing held | ||||||
25 | under Section 2-118 of this
Code. However, the results of the | ||||||
26 | testing may not be used to impose
driver's license sanctions |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | under Section 11-501.1 of this Code. A law
enforcement officer | ||||||
2 | may, however, pursue a statutory summary suspension or | ||||||
3 | revocation of
driving privileges under Section 11-501.1 of | ||||||
4 | this Code if other physical
evidence or first hand knowledge | ||||||
5 | forms the basis of that suspension or revocation.
| ||||||
6 | (g) This Section applies only to drivers who have been | ||||||
7 | issued a school bus
driver permit in accordance with Section | ||||||
8 | 6-106.1 of this Code at the time of
the issuance of the Uniform | ||||||
9 | Traffic Ticket for a violation of this
Code or a similar | ||||||
10 | provision of a local ordinance, and a chemical test
request is | ||||||
11 | made under this Section.
| ||||||
12 | (h) The action of the Secretary of State in suspending, | ||||||
13 | revoking, canceling,
or denying any license, permit, | ||||||
14 | registration, or certificate of title shall be
subject to | ||||||
15 | judicial review in the Circuit Court of Sangamon County or in | ||||||
16 | the
Circuit Court of Cook County, and the provisions of the | ||||||
17 | Administrative Review
Law and its rules are hereby adopted and | ||||||
18 | shall apply to and govern every
action for the judicial review | ||||||
19 | of final acts or decisions of the Secretary of
State under this | ||||||
20 | Section.

22 | Sec. 6-117. Records to be kept by the Secretary of State.
| ||||||
23 | (a) The Secretary of State shall file every application | ||||||
24 | for a license or
permit accepted under this Chapter, and shall | ||||||
25 | maintain suitable
indexes thereof. The records of the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | Secretary of State shall indicate the
action taken with | ||||||
2 | respect to such applications.
| ||||||
3 | (b) The Secretary of State shall maintain appropriate | ||||||
4 | records of all
licenses and permits refused, cancelled, | ||||||
5 | disqualified, revoked, or suspended and of the
revocation,
| ||||||
6 | suspension, and disqualification of driving privileges of | ||||||
7 | persons not licensed
under this Chapter, and such records | ||||||
8 | shall note the reasons for such
action.
| ||||||
9 | (c) The Secretary of State shall maintain appropriate | ||||||
10 | records of
convictions reported under this Chapter. Records of | ||||||
11 | conviction may be
maintained in a computer processible medium.
| ||||||
12 | (d) The Secretary of State may also maintain appropriate | ||||||
13 | records of any
crash accident reports received.
| ||||||
14 | (e) The Secretary of State shall also maintain appropriate | ||||||
15 | records
of any disposition of supervision or records
relative
| ||||||
16 | to a driver's referral to a driver remedial or rehabilitative | ||||||
17 | program, as
required by the Secretary of State or the courts. | ||||||
18 | Such records shall only
be available for use by the Secretary, | ||||||
19 | the driver licensing administrator of any other state, law | ||||||
20 | enforcement agencies, the
courts, and the affected driver or, | ||||||
21 | upon proper verification,
such affected driver's attorney.
| ||||||
22 | (f) The Secretary of State shall also maintain or contract | ||||||
23 | to maintain
appropriate records of all photographs and | ||||||
24 | signatures obtained in the process
of issuing any driver's | ||||||
25 | license, permit, or identification card. The record
shall be | ||||||
26 | confidential and shall not be disclosed except to those |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | entities
listed under Section 6-110.1 of this Code.
| ||||||
2 | (g) The Secretary of State may establish a First Person | ||||||
3 | Consent organ and tissue donor registry in compliance with | ||||||
4 | subsection (b-1) of Section 5-20 of the Illinois Anatomical | ||||||
5 | Gift Act, as follows: | ||||||
6 | (1) The Secretary shall offer, to each applicant for | ||||||
7 | issuance or renewal of a driver's license or | ||||||
8 | identification card who is 16 years of age or older, the | ||||||
9 | opportunity to have his or her name included in the First | ||||||
10 | Person Consent organ and tissue donor registry. The | ||||||
11 | Secretary must advise the applicant or licensee that he or | ||||||
12 | she is under no compulsion to have his or her name included | ||||||
13 | in the registry. An individual who agrees to having his or | ||||||
14 | her name included in the First Person Consent organ and | ||||||
15 | tissue donor registry has given full legal consent to the | ||||||
16 | donation of any of his or her organs or tissue upon his or | ||||||
17 | her death. A brochure explaining this method of executing | ||||||
18 | an anatomical gift must be given to each applicant for | ||||||
19 | issuance or renewal of a driver's license or | ||||||
20 | identification card. The brochure must advise the | ||||||
21 | applicant or licensee (i) that he or she is under no | ||||||
22 | compulsion to have his or her name included in this | ||||||
23 | registry and (ii) that he or she may wish to consult with | ||||||
24 | family, friends, or clergy before doing so. | ||||||
25 | (2) The Secretary of State may establish additional | ||||||
26 | methods by which an individual may have his or her name |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | included in the First Person Consent organ and tissue | ||||||
2 | donor registry. | ||||||
3 | (3) When an individual has agreed to have his or her | ||||||
4 | name included in the First Person Consent organ and tissue | ||||||
5 | donor registry, the Secretary of State shall note that | ||||||
6 | agreement in the First Person consent organ and tissue | ||||||
7 | donor registry. Representatives of federally designated | ||||||
8 | organ procurement agencies and tissue banks and the | ||||||
9 | offices of Illinois county coroners and medical examiners | ||||||
10 | may inquire of the Secretary of State whether a potential | ||||||
11 | organ donor's name is included in the First Person Consent | ||||||
12 | organ and tissue donor registry, and the Secretary of | ||||||
13 | State may provide that information to the representative. | ||||||
14 | (4) An individual may withdraw his or her consent to | ||||||
15 | be listed in the First Person Consent organ and tissue | ||||||
16 | donor registry maintained by the Secretary of State by | ||||||
17 | notifying the Secretary of State in writing, or by any | ||||||
18 | other means approved by the Secretary, of the individual's | ||||||
19 | decision to have his or her name removed from the | ||||||
20 | registry. | ||||||
21 | (5) The Secretary of State may undertake additional | ||||||
22 | efforts, including education and awareness activities, to | ||||||
23 | promote organ and tissue donation. | ||||||
24 | (6) In the absence of gross negligence or willful | ||||||
25 | misconduct, the Secretary of State and his or her | ||||||
26 | employees are immune from any civil or criminal liability |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | in connection with an individual's consent to be listed in | ||||||
2 | the organ and tissue donor registry.

5 | Sec. 6-117.2. Emergency contact database. | ||||||
6 | (a) The Secretary of State shall establish a database of | ||||||
7 | the emergency contacts of persons who hold a driver's license, | ||||||
8 | instruction permit, or any other type of driving permit issued | ||||||
9 | by the Secretary of State. Information in the database shall | ||||||
10 | be accessible only to employees of the Office of the Secretary | ||||||
11 | and law enforcement officers employed by a law enforcement | ||||||
12 | agency. Law enforcement officers may share information | ||||||
13 | contained in the emergency contact database, including | ||||||
14 | disabilities and special needs information, with other public | ||||||
15 | safety workers on scene, as needed to conduct official law | ||||||
16 | enforcement duties. | ||||||
17 | (b) Any person holding a driver's license, instruction | ||||||
18 | permit, or any other type of driving permit issued by the | ||||||
19 | Secretary of State shall be afforded the opportunity to | ||||||
20 | provide the Secretary of State, in a manner and form | ||||||
21 | designated by the Secretary of State, the name, address, | ||||||
22 | telephone number, and relationship to the holder of no more | ||||||
23 | than 2 emergency contact persons whom the holder wishes to be | ||||||
24 | contacted by a law enforcement officer if the holder is | ||||||
25 | involved in a motor vehicle crash accident or other emergency |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | situation and the holder is unable to communicate with the | ||||||
2 | contact person or persons and may designate whether the holder | ||||||
3 | has a disability or is a special needs individual. A contact | ||||||
4 | person need not be the holder's next of kin. | ||||||
5 | (c) The Secretary shall adopt rules to implement this | ||||||
6 | Section. At a minimum, the rules shall address all of the | ||||||
7 | following: | ||||||
8 | (1) the method whereby a holder may provide the | ||||||
9 | Secretary of State with emergency contact, disability, and | ||||||
10 | special needs information; | ||||||
11 | (2) the method whereby a holder may provide the | ||||||
12 | Secretary of State with a change to the emergency contact, | ||||||
13 | disability, and special needs information; and | ||||||
14 | (3) any other aspect of the database or its operation | ||||||
15 | that the Secretary determines is necessary to implement | ||||||
16 | this Section. | ||||||
17 | (d) If a person involved in a motor vehicle crash accident | ||||||
18 | or other emergency situation is unable to communicate with the | ||||||
19 | contact person or persons specified in the database, a law | ||||||
20 | enforcement officer shall make a good faith effort to notify | ||||||
21 | the contact person or persons of the situation. Neither the | ||||||
22 | law enforcement officer nor the law enforcement agency that | ||||||
23 | employs that law enforcement officer incurs any liability, | ||||||
24 | however, if the law enforcement officer is not able to make | ||||||
25 | contact with the contact person. Except for willful or wanton | ||||||
26 | misconduct, neither the law enforcement officer, nor the law |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | enforcement agency that employs the law enforcement officer, | ||||||
2 | shall incur any liability relating to the reporting or use of | ||||||
3 | the database during a motor vehicle crash accident or other | ||||||
4 | emergency situation. | ||||||
5 | (e) The Secretary of State shall make a good faith effort | ||||||
6 | to maintain accurate data as provided by the driver's license | ||||||
7 | or instruction permit holder and to provide that information | ||||||
8 | to law enforcement as provided in subsection (a). The | ||||||
9 | Secretary of State is not liable for any damages, costs, or | ||||||
10 | expenses, including, without limitation, consequential | ||||||
11 | damages, arising or resulting from any inaccurate or | ||||||
12 | incomplete data or system unavailability. Except for willful | ||||||
13 | or wanton misconduct, the Secretary of State shall not incur | ||||||
14 | any liability relating to the reporting of disabilities or | ||||||
15 | special needs individuals. | ||||||
16 | (f) As used in this Section: | ||||||
17 | "Disability" means an individual's physical or mental | ||||||
18 | impairment that substantially limits one or more of the major | ||||||
19 | life activities; a record of such impairment; or when the | ||||||
20 | individual is regarded as having such impairment. | ||||||
21 | "Public safety worker" means a person employed by this | ||||||
22 | State or a political subdivision thereof that provides | ||||||
23 | firefighting, law enforcement, medical or other emergency | ||||||
24 | services. | ||||||
25 | "Special needs individuals" means those individuals who | ||||||
26 | have or are at increased risk for a chronic physical, |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | developmental, behavioral, or emotional condition and who also | ||||||
2 | require health and related services of a type or amount beyond | ||||||
3 | that required by individuals generally. | ||||||

| ||||||
6 | Sec. 6-201. Authority to cancel licenses and permits.
| ||||||
7 | (a) The Secretary of State is authorized to cancel any | ||||||
8 | license or permit
upon determining that the holder thereof:
| ||||||
9 | 1. was not entitled to the issuance thereof hereunder; | ||||||
10 | or
| ||||||
11 | 2. failed to give the required or correct information | ||||||
12 | in his
application; or
| ||||||
13 | 3. failed to pay any fees owed to the Secretary of | ||||||
14 | State under this Code for the license or permit;
or
| ||||||
15 | 4. committed any fraud in the making of such | ||||||
16 | application; or
| ||||||
17 | 5. is ineligible therefor under the provisions of | ||||||
18 | Section 6-103 of this
Act, as amended; or
| ||||||
19 | 6. has refused or neglected to submit an alcohol, | ||||||
20 | drug, and
intoxicating compound evaluation or to
submit to | ||||||
21 | examination or re-examination as required under this Act; | ||||||
22 | or
| ||||||
23 | 7. has been convicted of violating the Cannabis | ||||||
24 | Control Act,
the
Illinois Controlled Substances Act, the | ||||||
25 | Methamphetamine Control and Community Protection Act, or |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | the Use of Intoxicating Compounds
Act while that | ||||||
2 | individual was in actual physical
control of a motor | ||||||
3 | vehicle. For purposes of this Section, any person placed | ||||||
4 | on
probation under Section 10 of the Cannabis Control Act, | ||||||
5 | Section 410 of the
Illinois Controlled Substances Act, or | ||||||
6 | Section 70 of the Methamphetamine Control and Community | ||||||
7 | Protection Act shall not be considered convicted. Any
| ||||||
8 | person found guilty of this offense, while in actual | ||||||
9 | physical control of a
motor vehicle, shall have an entry | ||||||
10 | made in the court record by the
judge that this offense did | ||||||
11 | occur while the person was in actual
physical control of a | ||||||
12 | motor vehicle and order the clerk of the court to report
| ||||||
13 | the violation to the Secretary of State as such. After the | ||||||
14 | cancellation, the
Secretary of State shall not issue a new | ||||||
15 | license or permit for a period of one
year after the date | ||||||
16 | of cancellation. However, upon application, the Secretary
| ||||||
17 | of State may, if satisfied that the person applying will | ||||||
18 | not endanger the
public safety, or welfare, issue a | ||||||
19 | restricted driving permit granting the
privilege of | ||||||
20 | driving a motor vehicle between the petitioner's residence | ||||||
21 | and
petitioner's place of employment or within the scope | ||||||
22 | of the petitioner's employment
related duties, or to allow | ||||||
23 | transportation for
the petitioner or a household member of | ||||||
24 | the petitioner's family for the receipt of
necessary | ||||||
25 | medical care, or provide transportation for the petitioner | ||||||
26 | to and from alcohol or drug remedial or
rehabilitative |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | activity recommended by a licensed service provider, or | ||||||
2 | for the petitioner to attend classes, as a student,
in an | ||||||
3 | accredited educational institution. The petitioner must
| ||||||
4 | demonstrate that no alternative means of transportation is | ||||||
5 | reasonably
available; provided that the Secretary's | ||||||
6 | discretion shall be limited to
cases where undue hardship, | ||||||
7 | as defined by the rules of the Secretary of State, would | ||||||
8 | result from a failure to issue such
restricted driving | ||||||
9 | permit. In each case the Secretary of State may issue
such | ||||||
10 | restricted driving permit for such period as he deems | ||||||
11 | appropriate,
except that such permit shall expire no later | ||||||
12 | than 2 years from the date of
issuance. A restricted | ||||||
13 | driving permit issued hereunder shall be subject to
| ||||||
14 | cancellation, revocation and suspension by the Secretary | ||||||
15 | of State in like
manner and for like cause as a driver's | ||||||
16 | license issued hereunder may be
cancelled, revoked or | ||||||
17 | suspended; except that a conviction upon one or more
| ||||||
18 | offenses against laws or ordinances regulating the | ||||||
19 | movement of traffic
shall be deemed sufficient cause for | ||||||
20 | the revocation, suspension or
cancellation of a restricted | ||||||
21 | driving permit. The Secretary of State may,
as a condition | ||||||
22 | to the issuance of a restricted driving permit, require | ||||||
23 | the
applicant to participate in a driver remedial or | ||||||
24 | rehabilitative
program. In accordance with 49 C.F.R. 384, | ||||||
25 | the Secretary of State may not issue a restricted driving | ||||||
26 | permit for the operation of a commercial motor vehicle to |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | a person holding a CDL whose driving privileges have been | ||||||
2 | revoked, suspended, cancelled, or disqualified under this | ||||||
3 | Code; or
| ||||||
4 | 8. failed to submit a report as required by Section | ||||||
5 | 6-116.5 of this
Code; or
| ||||||

7 | the Sex Offender Registration Act. The driver's license | ||||||
8 | shall remain cancelled until the driver registers as a sex | ||||||
9 | offender as required by the Sex Offender Registration Act, | ||||||
10 | proof of the registration is furnished to the Secretary of | ||||||
11 | State and the sex offender provides proof of current | ||||||
12 | address to the Secretary; or
| ||||||
13 | 10. is ineligible for a license or permit under | ||||||
14 | Section 6-107, 6-107.1, or
6-108 of this Code; or
| ||||||
15 | 11. refused or neglected to appear at a Driver | ||||||
16 | Services facility to have the license or permit corrected | ||||||
17 | and a new license or permit issued or to present | ||||||
18 | documentation for verification of identity; or
| ||||||
19 | 12. failed to submit a medical examiner's certificate | ||||||
20 | or medical variance as required by 49 C.F.R. 383.71 or | ||||||
21 | submitted a fraudulent medical examiner's certificate or | ||||||
22 | medical variance; or | ||||||
23 | 13. has had his or her medical examiner's certificate, | ||||||
24 | medical variance, or both removed or rescinded by the | ||||||
25 | Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration; or | ||||||
26 | 14. failed to self-certify as to the type of driving |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | in which the CDL driver engages or expects to engage; or | ||||||

3 | out-of-state residency to the Secretary of State to be | ||||||
4 | released from the requirement of showing proof of | ||||||
5 | financial responsibility in this State; or | ||||||
6 | 16. was convicted of fraud relating to the testing or | ||||||
7 | issuance of a CDL or CLP, in which case only the CDL or CLP | ||||||
8 | shall be cancelled. After cancellation, the Secretary | ||||||
9 | shall not issue a CLP or CDL for a period of one year from | ||||||
10 | the date of cancellation; or | ||||||
11 | 17. has a special restricted license under subsection | ||||||
12 | (g) of Section 6-113 of this Code and failed to submit the | ||||||
13 | required annual vision specialist report that the special | ||||||
14 | restricted license holder's vision has not changed; or | ||||||
15 | 18. has a special restricted license under subsection | ||||||
16 | (g) of Section 6-113 of this Code and was convicted or | ||||||
17 | received court supervision for a violation of this Code | ||||||
18 | that occurred during nighttime hours or was involved in a | ||||||
19 | motor vehicle crash accident during nighttime hours in | ||||||

shall have exclusive authority to | ||||||
6 | grant, issue, deny, cancel, suspend and
revoke driving | ||||||
7 | privileges, drivers' licenses and restricted driving permits.

22 | in death to another and the violation is a proximate cause | ||||||
23 | of the death. | ||||||
24 | (b) The Secretary of State shall also immediately revoke | ||||||
25 | the license
or permit of any driver in the following | ||||||
26 | situations:
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | 1. Of any minor upon receiving the notice provided for | ||||||
2 | in Section
5-901 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 that the | ||||||
3 | minor has been
adjudicated under that Act as having | ||||||
4 | committed an offense relating to
motor vehicles prescribed | ||||||
5 | in Section 4-103 of this Code;
| ||||||
6 | 2. Of any person when any other law of this State | ||||||
7 | requires either the
revocation or suspension of a license | ||||||
8 | or permit;
| ||||||
9 | 3. Of any person adjudicated under the Juvenile Court | ||||||
10 | Act of 1987 based on an offense determined to have been | ||||||
11 | committed in furtherance of the criminal activities of an | ||||||
12 | organized gang as provided in Section 5-710 of that Act, | ||||||
13 | and that involved the operation or use of a motor vehicle | ||||||
14 | or the use of a driver's license or permit. The revocation | ||||||
15 | shall remain in effect for the period determined by the | ||||||
16 | court. | ||||||
17 | (c)(1) Whenever a person is convicted of any of the | ||||||
18 | offenses enumerated in
this Section, the court may recommend | ||||||
19 | and the Secretary of State in his
discretion, without regard | ||||||
20 | to whether the recommendation is made by the
court may, upon | ||||||
21 | application,
issue to the person a
restricted driving permit | ||||||
22 | granting the privilege of driving a motor
vehicle between the | ||||||
23 | petitioner's residence and petitioner's place
of employment or | ||||||
24 | within the scope of the petitioner's employment related
| ||||||
25 | duties, or to allow the petitioner to transport himself or | ||||||
26 | herself or a family member
of the petitioner's household to a |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | medical facility for the receipt of necessary medical care or | ||||||
2 | to allow the
petitioner to transport himself or herself to and | ||||||
3 | from alcohol or drug remedial or rehabilitative activity | ||||||
4 | recommended by a licensed service provider, or to allow the
| ||||||
5 | petitioner to transport himself or herself or a family member | ||||||
6 | of the petitioner's household to classes, as a student, at an | ||||||
7 | accredited educational
institution, or to allow the petitioner | ||||||
8 | to transport children, elderly persons, or persons with | ||||||
9 | disabilities who do not hold driving privileges and are living | ||||||
10 | in the petitioner's household to and from daycare; if the | ||||||
11 | petitioner is able to demonstrate that no alternative means
of | ||||||
12 | transportation is reasonably available and that the petitioner | ||||||
13 | will not endanger
the public safety or welfare; provided that | ||||||
14 | the Secretary's discretion shall be
limited to cases where | ||||||
15 | undue hardship, as defined by the rules of the Secretary of | ||||||
16 | State, would result from a failure to issue the
restricted | ||||||
17 | driving permit.
| ||||||
18 | (1.5) A person subject to the provisions of paragraph 4 of | ||||||
19 | subsection (b) of Section 6-208 of this Code may make | ||||||
20 | application for a restricted driving permit at a hearing | ||||||
21 | conducted under Section 2-118 of this Code after the | ||||||
22 | expiration of 5 years from the effective date of the most | ||||||
23 | recent revocation, or after 5 years from the date of release | ||||||
24 | from a period of imprisonment resulting from a conviction of | ||||||
25 | the most recent offense, whichever is later, provided the | ||||||
26 | person, in addition to all other requirements of the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | Secretary, shows by clear and convincing evidence: | ||||||
2 | (A) a minimum of 3 years of uninterrupted abstinence | ||||||
3 | from alcohol and the unlawful use or consumption of | ||||||
4 | cannabis under the Cannabis Control Act, a controlled | ||||||
5 | substance under the Illinois Controlled Substances Act, an | ||||||
6 | intoxicating compound under the Use of Intoxicating | ||||||
7 | Compounds Act, or methamphetamine under the | ||||||
8 | Methamphetamine Control and Community Protection Act; and | ||||||
9 | (B) the successful completion of any rehabilitative | ||||||
10 | treatment and involvement in any ongoing rehabilitative | ||||||
11 | activity that may be recommended by a properly licensed | ||||||
12 | service provider according to an assessment of the | ||||||
13 | person's alcohol or drug use under Section 11-501.01 of | ||||||
14 | this Code. | ||||||
15 | In determining whether an applicant is eligible for a | ||||||
16 | restricted driving permit under this paragraph (1.5), the | ||||||
17 | Secretary may consider any relevant evidence, including, but | ||||||
18 | not limited to, testimony, affidavits, records, and the | ||||||
19 | results of regular alcohol or drug tests. Persons subject to | ||||||
20 | the provisions of paragraph 4 of subsection (b) of Section | ||||||
21 | 6-208 of this Code and who have been convicted of more than one | ||||||
22 | violation of paragraph (3), paragraph (4), or paragraph (5) of | ||||||
23 | subsection (a) of Section 11-501 of this Code shall not be | ||||||
24 | eligible to apply for a restricted driving permit. | ||||||
25 | A restricted driving permit issued under this paragraph | ||||||
26 | (1.5) shall provide that the holder may only operate motor |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | vehicles equipped with an ignition interlock device as | ||||||
2 | required under paragraph (2) of subsection (c) of this Section | ||||||
3 | and subparagraph (A) of paragraph 3 of subsection (c) of | ||||||
4 | Section 6-206 of this Code. The Secretary may revoke a | ||||||
5 | restricted driving permit or amend the conditions of a | ||||||
6 | restricted driving permit issued under this paragraph (1.5) if | ||||||
7 | the holder operates a vehicle that is not equipped with an | ||||||
8 | ignition interlock device, or for any other reason authorized | ||||||
9 | under this Code. | ||||||
10 | A restricted driving permit issued under this paragraph | ||||||
11 | (1.5) shall be revoked, and the holder barred from applying | ||||||
12 | for or being issued a restricted driving permit in the future, | ||||||
13 | if the holder is subsequently convicted of a violation of | ||||||
14 | Section 11-501 of this Code, a similar provision of a local | ||||||
15 | ordinance, or a similar offense in another state. | ||||||
16 | (2) If a person's license or permit is revoked or | ||||||
17 | suspended due to 2 or
more convictions of violating Section | ||||||
18 | 11-501 of this Code or a similar
provision of a local ordinance | ||||||
19 | or a similar out-of-state offense, or Section 9-3 of the | ||||||
20 | Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012, where the | ||||||
21 | use of alcohol or other drugs is recited as an element of the | ||||||
22 | offense, or a similar out-of-state offense, or a combination | ||||||
23 | of these offenses, arising out
of separate occurrences, that | ||||||
24 | person, if issued a restricted driving permit,
may not operate | ||||||
25 | a vehicle unless it has been equipped with an ignition
| ||||||
26 | interlock device as defined in Section 1-129.1.
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (3) If:
| ||||||
2 | (A) a person's license or permit is revoked or | ||||||
3 | suspended 2 or more
times due to any combination of: | ||||||
4 | (i)
a single conviction of violating Section
| ||||||
5 | 11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a local | ||||||
6 | ordinance or a similar
out-of-state offense, or | ||||||
7 | Section 9-3 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the | ||||||
8 | Criminal Code of 2012, where the use of alcohol or | ||||||
9 | other drugs is recited as an element of the offense, or | ||||||
10 | a similar out-of-state offense; or | ||||||
11 | (ii)
a statutory summary suspension or revocation | ||||||
12 | under Section
11-501.1; or | ||||||
13 | (iii)
a suspension pursuant to Section 6-203.1;
| ||||||
14 | arising out of
separate occurrences; or | ||||||
15 | (B)
a person has been convicted of one violation of | ||||||
16 | subparagraph (C) or (F) of paragraph (1) of subsection (d) | ||||||
17 | of Section 11-501 of this Code, Section 9-3 of the | ||||||
18 | Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012, | ||||||
19 | relating to the offense of reckless homicide where the use | ||||||
20 | of alcohol or other drugs was recited as an element of the | ||||||
21 | offense, or a similar provision of a law of another state;
| ||||||
22 | that person, if issued a restricted
driving permit, may not | ||||||
23 | operate a vehicle unless it has been equipped with an
ignition | ||||||
24 | interlock device as defined in Section 1-129.1. | ||||||
25 | (4)
The person issued a permit conditioned on the use of an | ||||||
26 | ignition interlock device must pay to the Secretary of State |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | DUI Administration Fund an amount
not to exceed $30 per month. | ||||||
2 | The Secretary shall establish by rule the amount
and the | ||||||
3 | procedures, terms, and conditions relating to these fees. | ||||||
4 | (5)
If the restricted driving permit is issued for | ||||||
5 | employment purposes, then
the prohibition against operating a | ||||||
6 | motor vehicle that is not equipped with an ignition interlock | ||||||
7 | device does not apply to the operation of an occupational | ||||||
8 | vehicle
owned or leased by that person's employer when used | ||||||
9 | solely for employment purposes. For any person who, within a | ||||||
10 | 5-year period, is convicted of a second or subsequent offense | ||||||
11 | under Section 11-501 of this Code, or a similar provision of a | ||||||
12 | local ordinance or similar out-of-state offense, this | ||||||
13 | employment exemption does not apply until either a one-year | ||||||
14 | period has elapsed during which that person had his or her | ||||||
15 | driving privileges revoked or a one-year period has elapsed | ||||||
16 | during which that person had a restricted driving permit which | ||||||
17 | required the use of an ignition interlock device on every | ||||||
18 | motor vehicle owned or operated by that person. | ||||||
19 | (6)
In each case the Secretary of State may issue a
| ||||||
20 | restricted driving permit for a period he deems appropriate, | ||||||
21 | except that the
permit shall expire no later than 2 years from | ||||||
22 | the date of issuance. A restricted
driving permit issued under | ||||||
23 | this Section shall be
subject to cancellation, revocation, and | ||||||
24 | suspension by the Secretary of
State in like manner and for | ||||||
25 | like cause as a driver's license issued
under this Code may be | ||||||
26 | cancelled, revoked, or
suspended; except that a conviction |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | upon one or more offenses against laws or
ordinances | ||||||
2 | regulating the movement of traffic shall be deemed sufficient | ||||||
3 | cause
for the revocation, suspension, or cancellation of a | ||||||
4 | restricted driving permit.
The Secretary of State may, as a | ||||||
5 | condition to the issuance of a restricted
driving permit, | ||||||
6 | require the petitioner to participate in a designated driver
| ||||||
7 | remedial or rehabilitative program. The Secretary of State is | ||||||
8 | authorized to
cancel a restricted driving permit if the permit | ||||||
9 | holder does not successfully
complete the program. However, if | ||||||
10 | an individual's driving privileges have been
revoked in | ||||||
11 | accordance with paragraph 13 of subsection (a) of this | ||||||
12 | Section, no
restricted driving permit shall be issued until | ||||||
13 | the individual has served 6
months of the revocation period.
| ||||||
14 | (c-5) (Blank).
| ||||||
15 | (c-6) If a person is convicted of a second violation of | ||||||
16 | operating a motor vehicle while the person's driver's license, | ||||||
17 | permit or privilege was revoked, where the revocation was for | ||||||
18 | a violation of Section 9-3 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the | ||||||
19 | Criminal Code of 2012 relating to the offense of reckless | ||||||
20 | homicide or a similar out-of-state offense, the person's | ||||||
21 | driving privileges shall be revoked pursuant to subdivision | ||||||
22 | (a)(15) of this Section. The person may not make application | ||||||
23 | for a license or permit until the expiration of five years from | ||||||
24 | the effective date of the revocation or the expiration of five | ||||||
25 | years from the date of release from a term of imprisonment, | ||||||
26 | whichever is later. |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (c-7) If a person is convicted of a third or subsequent | ||||||
2 | violation of operating a motor vehicle while the person's | ||||||
3 | driver's license, permit or privilege was revoked, where the | ||||||
4 | revocation was for a violation of Section 9-3 of the Criminal | ||||||
5 | Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012 relating to the | ||||||
6 | offense of reckless homicide or a similar out-of-state | ||||||
7 | offense, the person may never apply for a license or permit. | ||||||
8 | (d)(1) Whenever a person under the age of 21 is convicted | ||||||
9 | under Section
11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a | ||||||
10 | local ordinance or a similar out-of-state offense, the
| ||||||
11 | Secretary of State shall revoke the driving privileges of that | ||||||
12 | person. One
year after the date of revocation, and upon | ||||||
13 | application, the Secretary of
State may, if satisfied that the | ||||||
14 | person applying will not endanger the
public safety or | ||||||
15 | welfare, issue a restricted driving permit granting the
| ||||||
16 | privilege of driving a motor vehicle only between the hours of | ||||||
17 | 5 a.m. and 9
p.m. or as otherwise provided by this Section for | ||||||
18 | a period of one year.
After this one-year period, and upon | ||||||
19 | reapplication for a license as
provided in Section 6-106, upon | ||||||
20 | payment of the appropriate reinstatement
fee provided under | ||||||
21 | paragraph (b) of Section 6-118, the Secretary of State,
in his | ||||||
22 | discretion, may
reinstate the petitioner's driver's license | ||||||
23 | and driving privileges, or extend the restricted driving | ||||||
24 | permit as many times as the
Secretary of State deems | ||||||
25 | appropriate, by additional periods of not more than
24 months | ||||||
26 | each.
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (2) If a person's license or permit is revoked or | ||||||
2 | suspended due to 2 or
more convictions of violating | ||||||
3 | Section 11-501 of this Code or a similar
provision of a | ||||||
4 | local ordinance or a similar out-of-state offense, or | ||||||
5 | Section 9-3 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal | ||||||
6 | Code of 2012, where the use of alcohol or other drugs is | ||||||
7 | recited as an element of the offense, or a similar | ||||||
8 | out-of-state offense, or a combination of these offenses, | ||||||
9 | arising out
of separate occurrences, that person, if | ||||||
10 | issued a restricted driving permit,
may not operate a | ||||||
11 | vehicle unless it has been equipped with an ignition
| ||||||
12 | interlock device as defined in Section 1-129.1.
| ||||||
13 | (3) If a person's license or permit is revoked or | ||||||
14 | suspended 2 or more times
due to any combination of: | ||||||
15 | (A) a single conviction of violating Section | ||||||
16 | 11-501
of this
Code or a similar provision of a local | ||||||
17 | ordinance or a similar out-of-state
offense, or | ||||||
18 | Section 9-3 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the | ||||||
19 | Criminal Code of 2012, where the use of alcohol or | ||||||
20 | other drugs is recited as an element of the offense, or | ||||||
21 | a similar out-of-state offense; or | ||||||
22 | (B)
a statutory summary suspension or revocation | ||||||
23 | under Section 11-501.1; or | ||||||
24 | (C) a suspension pursuant to Section 6-203.1; | ||||||
25 | arising out of separate occurrences, that person, if | ||||||
26 | issued a
restricted
driving permit, may not operate a |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | vehicle unless it has been equipped with an
ignition | ||||||
2 | interlock device as defined in Section 1-129.1. | ||||||
3 | (3.5) If a person's license or permit is revoked or | ||||||
4 | suspended due to a conviction for a violation of | ||||||
5 | subparagraph (C) or (F) of paragraph (1) of subsection (d) | ||||||
6 | of Section 11-501 of this Code, or a similar provision of a | ||||||
7 | local ordinance or similar out-of-state offense, that | ||||||
8 | person, if issued a restricted driving permit, may not | ||||||
9 | operate a vehicle unless it has been equipped with an | ||||||
10 | ignition interlock device as defined in Section 1-129.1. | ||||||
11 | (4)
The person issued a permit conditioned upon the | ||||||
12 | use of an interlock device must pay to the Secretary of | ||||||
13 | State DUI Administration Fund an amount
not to exceed $30 | ||||||
14 | per month. The Secretary shall establish by rule the | ||||||
15 | amount
and the procedures, terms, and conditions relating | ||||||
16 | to these fees. | ||||||
17 | (5)
If the restricted driving permit is issued for | ||||||
18 | employment purposes, then
the prohibition against driving | ||||||
19 | a vehicle that is not equipped with an ignition interlock | ||||||
20 | device does not apply to the operation of an occupational | ||||||
21 | vehicle
owned or leased by that person's employer when | ||||||
22 | used solely for employment purposes. For any person who, | ||||||
23 | within a 5-year period, is convicted of a second or | ||||||
24 | subsequent offense under Section 11-501 of this Code, or a | ||||||
25 | similar provision of a local ordinance or similar | ||||||
26 | out-of-state offense, this employment exemption does not |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | apply until either a one-year period has elapsed during | ||||||
2 | which that person had his or her driving privileges | ||||||
3 | revoked or a one-year period has elapsed during which that | ||||||
4 | person had a restricted driving permit which required the | ||||||
5 | use of an ignition interlock device on every motor vehicle | ||||||
6 | owned or operated by that person. | ||||||
7 | (6) A
restricted driving permit issued under this | ||||||
8 | Section shall be subject to
cancellation, revocation, and | ||||||
9 | suspension by the Secretary of State in like
manner and | ||||||
10 | for like cause as a driver's license issued under this | ||||||
11 | Code may be
cancelled, revoked, or suspended; except that | ||||||
12 | a conviction upon one or more
offenses against laws or | ||||||
13 | ordinances regulating the movement of traffic
shall be | ||||||
14 | deemed sufficient cause for the revocation, suspension, or
| ||||||
15 | cancellation of a restricted driving permit.
| ||||||
16 | (d-5) The revocation of the license, permit, or driving | ||||||
17 | privileges of a person convicted of a third or subsequent | ||||||
18 | violation of Section 6-303 of this Code committed while his or | ||||||
19 | her driver's license, permit, or privilege was revoked because | ||||||
20 | of a violation of Section 9-3 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or | ||||||
21 | the Criminal Code of 2012, relating to the offense of reckless | ||||||
22 | homicide, or a similar provision of a law of another state, is | ||||||
23 | permanent. The Secretary may not, at any time, issue a license | ||||||
24 | or permit to that person.
| ||||||
25 | (e) This Section is subject to the provisions of the | ||||||
26 | Driver License
Compact.
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (f) Any revocation imposed upon any person under | ||||||
2 | subsections 2
and 3 of paragraph (b) that is in effect on | ||||||
3 | December 31, 1988 shall be
converted to a suspension for a like | ||||||
4 | period of time.
| ||||||
5 | (g) The Secretary of State shall not issue a restricted | ||||||
6 | driving permit to
a person under the age of 16 years whose | ||||||
7 | driving privileges have been revoked
under any provisions of | ||||||
8 | this Code.
| ||||||
9 | (h) The Secretary of State shall require the use of | ||||||
10 | ignition interlock
devices for a period not less than 5 years | ||||||
11 | on all vehicles owned by a person who has been convicted of a
| ||||||
12 | second or subsequent offense under Section 11-501 of this Code | ||||||
13 | or a similar
provision of a local ordinance. The person must | ||||||
14 | pay to the Secretary of State DUI Administration Fund an | ||||||
15 | amount not to exceed $30 for each month that he or she uses the | ||||||
16 | device. The Secretary shall establish by rule and
regulation | ||||||
17 | the procedures for certification and use of the interlock
| ||||||
18 | system, the amount of the fee, and the procedures, terms, and | ||||||
19 | conditions relating to these fees. During the time period in | ||||||
20 | which a person is required to install an ignition interlock | ||||||
21 | device under this subsection (h), that person shall only | ||||||
22 | operate vehicles in which ignition interlock devices have been | ||||||
23 | installed, except as allowed by subdivision (c)(5) or (d)(5) | ||||||
24 | of this Section. Regardless of whether an exemption under | ||||||
25 | subdivision (c) (5) or (d) (5) applies, every person subject | ||||||
26 | to this subsection shall not be eligible for reinstatement |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | until the person installs an ignition interlock device and | ||||||
2 | maintains the ignition interlock device for 5 years.
| ||||||
3 | (i) (Blank).
| ||||||
4 | (j) In accordance with 49 C.F.R. 384, the Secretary of | ||||||
5 | State may not issue a restricted driving permit for the | ||||||

| ||||||
9 | (k) The Secretary of State shall notify by mail any person | ||||||
10 | whose driving privileges have been revoked under paragraph 16 | ||||||
11 | of subsection (a) of this Section that his or her driving | ||||||
12 | privileges and driver's license will be revoked 90 days from | ||||||
13 | the date of the mailing of the notice. | ||||||

provision of a | ||||||
2 | local ordinance or a similar out-of-state offense, or | ||||||
3 | Section 9-3 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal | ||||||

5 | recited as an element of the offense, or a similar | ||||||
6 | out-of-state offense, or a combination of these offenses, | ||||||
7 | arising out
of separate occurrences, that person, if | ||||||
8 | issued a restricted driving permit,
may not operate a | ||||||
9 | vehicle unless it has been equipped with an ignition
| ||||||
10 | interlock device as defined in Section 1-129.1.
| ||||||
11 | (B) If a person's license or permit is revoked or | ||||||
12 | suspended 2 or more
times due to any combination of: | ||||||
13 | (i) a single conviction of violating Section
| ||||||
14 | 11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a local | ||||||
15 | ordinance or a similar
out-of-state offense or Section | ||||||
16 | 9-3 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code | ||||||
17 | of 2012, where the use of alcohol or other drugs is | ||||||
18 | recited as an element of the offense, or a similar | ||||||
19 | out-of-state offense; or | ||||||

21 | under Section
11-501.1; or | ||||||
22 | (iii) a suspension under Section 6-203.1; | ||||||
23 | arising out of
separate occurrences; that person, if | ||||||

25 | vehicle unless it has been
equipped with an ignition | ||||||
26 | interlock device as defined in Section 1-129.1. |
| |||||||

2 | suspended due to a conviction for a violation of | ||||||
3 | subparagraph (C) or (F) of paragraph (1) of subsection (d) | ||||||
4 | of Section 11-501 of this Code, or a similar provision of a | ||||||
5 | local ordinance or similar out-of-state offense, that | ||||||
6 | person, if issued a restricted driving permit, may not | ||||||
7 | operate a vehicle unless it has been equipped with an | ||||||
8 | ignition interlock device as defined in Section 1-129.1. | ||||||

10 | use of an ignition interlock device must pay to the | ||||||

not | ||||||
12 | to exceed $30 per month. The Secretary shall establish by | ||||||
13 | rule the amount
and the procedures, terms, and conditions | ||||||
14 | relating to these fees. | ||||||
15 | (D) If the
restricted driving permit is issued for | ||||||
16 | employment purposes, then the prohibition against | ||||||
17 | operating a motor vehicle that is not equipped with an | ||||||
18 | ignition interlock device does not apply to the operation | ||||||
19 | of an occupational vehicle owned or
leased by that | ||||||
20 | person's employer when used solely for employment | ||||||
21 | purposes. For any person who, within a 5-year period, is | ||||||
22 | convicted of a second or subsequent offense under Section | ||||||

| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | driving privileges revoked or a one-year period has | ||||||
2 | elapsed during which that person had a restricted driving | ||||||
3 | permit which required the use of an ignition interlock | ||||||
4 | device on every motor vehicle owned or operated by that | ||||||
5 | person. | ||||||

restricted | ||||||
7 | driving permit for a period deemed appropriate, except | ||||||
8 | that all
permits shall expire no later than 2 years from | ||||||
9 | the date of issuance. A
restricted driving permit issued | ||||||
10 | under this Section shall be subject to
cancellation, | ||||||
11 | revocation, and suspension by the Secretary of State in | ||||||
12 | like
manner and for like cause as a driver's license | ||||||
13 | issued under this Code may be
cancelled, revoked, or | ||||||
14 | suspended; except that a conviction upon one or more
| ||||||
15 | offenses against laws or ordinances regulating the | ||||||
16 | movement of traffic
shall be deemed sufficient cause for | ||||||
17 | the revocation, suspension, or
cancellation of a | ||||||
18 | restricted driving permit. The Secretary of State may, as
| ||||||
19 | a condition to the issuance of a restricted driving | ||||||
20 | permit, require the
applicant to participate in a | ||||||
21 | designated driver remedial or rehabilitative
program. The | ||||||
22 | Secretary of State is authorized to cancel a restricted
| ||||||
23 | driving permit if the permit holder does not successfully | ||||||
24 | complete the program.
| ||||||
25 | (F) A person subject to the provisions of paragraph 4 | ||||||
26 | of subsection (b) of Section 6-208 of this Code may make |
| |||||||

2 | conducted under Section 2-118 of this Code after the | ||||||
3 | expiration of 5 years from the effective date of the most | ||||||
4 | recent revocation or after 5 years from the date of | ||||||
5 | release from a period of imprisonment resulting from a | ||||||
6 | conviction of the most recent offense, whichever is later, | ||||||
7 | provided the person, in addition to all other requirements | ||||||
8 | of the Secretary, shows by clear and convincing evidence: | ||||||
9 | (i) a minimum of 3 years of uninterrupted | ||||||
10 | abstinence from alcohol and the unlawful use or | ||||||

13 | Controlled Substances Act, an intoxicating compound | ||||||
14 | under the Use of Intoxicating Compounds Act, or | ||||||
15 | methamphetamine under the Methamphetamine Control and | ||||||
16 | Community Protection Act; and | ||||||
17 | (ii) the successful completion of any | ||||||
18 | rehabilitative treatment and involvement in any | ||||||
19 | ongoing rehabilitative activity that may be | ||||||
20 | recommended by a properly licensed service provider | ||||||

16 | such proof
was filed, or the permanent incapacity of such | ||||||
17 | person to operate a motor
vehicle;

18 | 2. In the event the person who has given proof of financial
| ||||||
19 | responsibility surrenders such person's driver's
license, | ||||||
20 | registration
certificates, license plates and registration | ||||||
21 | stickers, but the Secretary
of State shall not release such | ||||||

upon a liability | ||||||
23 | referred to in this Article is then pending
or any judgment | ||||||
24 | upon any such liability is then outstanding and unsatisfied

25 | in the event the Secretary of State has received notice that |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | such person
has, within the period of 3 months immediately | ||||||
2 | preceding,
been involved as a driver in any motor vehicle | ||||||
3 | crash accident . An affidavit of
the applicant of the | ||||||
4 | nonexistence of such facts shall
be sufficient evidence | ||||||
5 | thereof in the absence of evidence to the contrary
in the | ||||||
6 | records of the Secretary of State. Any person who has
not | ||||||
7 | completed the required 3 year period of proof of financial
| ||||||
8 | responsibility pursuant to Section 7-304, and to whom proof
| ||||||
9 | has been surrendered as provided in this paragraph applies for | ||||||

11 | shall have the application denied
unless the applicant | ||||||
12 | re-establishes
such proof for the remainder of such period.
| ||||||
13 | 3. In the event that proof of financial responsibility has | ||||||
14 | been
deposited voluntarily, at any time upon request of the | ||||||
15 | person entitled
thereto, provided that the person on whose | ||||||
16 | behalf such proof was given has
not, during the period between | ||||||
17 | the date of the original deposit thereof and
the date of such | ||||||
18 | request, been convicted of any offense for which
revocation is | ||||||
19 | mandatory as provided in Section 6-205; provided, further,
| ||||||
20 | that no action for damages is pending against such person on | ||||||
21 | whose behalf
such proof of financial responsibility was | ||||||
22 | furnished and no judgment
against such person is outstanding | ||||||
23 | and unsatisfied in respect to bodily
injury, or in respect to | ||||||
24 | damage to property resulting from the ownership,
maintenance, | ||||||
25 | use or operation hereafter of a motor vehicle. An affidavit
of | ||||||
26 | the applicant under this Section shall be sufficient evidence |

1 | of the facts
in the absence of evidence to the contrary in the | ||||||
2 | records of the Secretary
of State.

of any person. The privilege of | ||||||
8 | operation of any motor vehicle within this
State by such | ||||||
9 | person shall not be suspended or withdrawn under the

17 | conviction or
judgment against such person which, in the | ||||||
18 | absence of such proof of
financial responsibility would have | ||||||
19 | caused the suspension of the driver's
license of such person, | ||||||

12 | this Code,
or owners thereof, for the purpose of verifying | ||||||
13 | whether or not the motor
vehicles are insured.
| ||||||
14 | In addition to such general random samples of motor | ||||||
15 | vehicle
registrations, the Secretary may select for
| ||||||
16 | verification other random samples, including, but not limited | ||||||
17 | to
registrations of motor vehicles owned by persons:
| ||||||
18 | (1) whose motor vehicle registrations during the | ||||||

3 | such vehicles under the previous owners
were suspended | ||||||
4 | pursuant to Section 7-606 or 7-607 of this Code; or
| ||||||
5 | (5) who during the preceding 4 years have received a | ||||||
6 | disposition of
supervision under subsection (c) of Section | ||||||
7 | 5-6-1 of the Unified Code of
Corrections for a violation | ||||||
8 | of Section 3-707, 3-708, or 3-710 of this Code.
| ||||||

10 | Transportation
under Section 7-201.2 of this Code of the name | ||||||
11 | of an owner or operator of any
motor vehicle involved in a | ||||||
12 | crash an accident , the Secretary may verify whether or
not at | ||||||
13 | the time of the crash accident such motor vehicle was covered | ||||||
14 | by a
liability insurance policy in accordance with Section | ||||||
15 | 7-601 of this Code.
| ||||||
16 | (c) In preparation for selection of random samples and | ||||||
17 | their
verification, the Secretary may send to owners of | ||||||
18 | randomly selected motor

19 | motor vehicle owners, requests for
information about their | ||||||
20 | motor vehicles and liability
insurance coverage electronically | ||||||
21 | or, if electronic means are unavailable, via U.S. mail. The | ||||||
22 | request shall require the owner to state whether
or not the | ||||||
23 | motor vehicle was insured on the verification date stated in | ||||||
24 | the
Secretary's request and the request may require, but is | ||||||
25 | not limited to,
a statement by the owner of the names and | ||||||
26 | addresses of insurers, policy
numbers, and expiration dates of |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | insurance coverage.
| ||||||
2 | (d) Within 30 days after the Secretary sends a request | ||||||
3 | under subsection (c) of this Section, the owner to
whom it is | ||||||
4 | sent shall furnish the requested information to the Secretary
| ||||||
5 | above the owner's signed affirmation that such information is | ||||||
6 | true and
correct. Proof of insurance in effect on the | ||||||
7 | verification date, as
prescribed by the Secretary, may be | ||||||
8 | considered by the Secretary to be a
satisfactory response to | ||||||
9 | the request for information.
| ||||||
10 | Any owner whose response indicates that his or her vehicle | ||||||
11 | was
not covered by a liability insurance policy in accordance | ||||||
12 | with
Section 7-601 of this Code shall be deemed to have | ||||||
13 | registered or maintained
registration of a motor vehicle in | ||||||
14 | violation of that Section. Any owner who
fails to respond to | ||||||
15 | such a request shall be deemed to have registered or
| ||||||
16 | maintained registration of a motor vehicle in violation of | ||||||
17 | Section
7-601 of this Code.
| ||||||
18 | (e) If the owner responds to the request for information | ||||||
19 | by asserting
that his or her vehicle was covered by a liability | ||||||
20 | insurance policy on the
verification date stated in the | ||||||
21 | Secretary's request, the Secretary may
conduct a verification | ||||||
22 | of the response by furnishing necessary information
to the | ||||||
23 | insurer named in the response. The insurer shall within

| ||||||
10 | (a) As used in this Section, "automated traffic law | ||||||
11 | enforcement
system" means a device with one or more motor | ||||||
12 | vehicle sensors working
in conjunction with a red light signal | ||||||
13 | to produce recorded images of
motor vehicles entering an | ||||||
14 | intersection against a red signal
indication in violation of | ||||||
15 | Section 11-306 of this Code or a similar provision
of a local | ||||||
16 | ordinance.
| ||||||
17 | An
automated traffic law enforcement system is a system, | ||||||
18 | in a municipality or
county operated by a
governmental agency, | ||||||
19 | that
produces a recorded image of a motor vehicle's
violation | ||||||
20 | of a provision of this Code or a local ordinance
and is | ||||||
21 | designed to obtain a clear recorded image of the
vehicle and | ||||||
22 | the vehicle's license plate. The recorded image must also
| ||||||
23 | display the time, date, and location of the violation.
| ||||||
24 | (b) As used in this Section, "recorded images" means | ||||||
25 | images
recorded by an automated traffic law enforcement system |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | on:
| ||||||
2 | (1) 2 or more photographs;
| ||||||
3 | (2) 2 or more microphotographs;
| ||||||
4 | (3) 2 or more electronic images; or
| ||||||
5 | (4) a video recording showing the motor vehicle and, | ||||||
6 | on at
least one image or portion of the recording, clearly | ||||||
7 | identifying the
registration plate or digital registration | ||||||
8 | plate number of the motor vehicle.
| ||||||
9 | (b-5) A municipality or
county that
produces a recorded | ||||||
10 | image of a motor vehicle's
violation of a provision of this | ||||||
11 | Code or a local ordinance must make the recorded images of a | ||||||
12 | violation accessible to the alleged violator by providing the | ||||||
13 | alleged violator with a website address, accessible through | ||||||
14 | the Internet. | ||||||
15 | (c) Except as provided under Section 11-208.8 of this | ||||||
16 | Code, a county or municipality, including a home rule county | ||||||
17 | or municipality, may not use an automated traffic law | ||||||
18 | enforcement system to provide recorded images of a motor | ||||||
19 | vehicle for the purpose of recording its speed. Except as | ||||||
20 | provided under Section 11-208.8 of this Code, the regulation | ||||||
21 | of the use of automated traffic law enforcement systems to | ||||||
22 | record vehicle speeds is an exclusive power and function of | ||||||
23 | the State. This subsection (c) is a denial and limitation of | ||||||
24 | home rule powers and functions under subsection (h) of Section | ||||||
25 | 6 of Article VII of the Illinois Constitution.
| ||||||
26 | (c-5) A county or municipality, including a home rule |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | county or municipality, may not use an automated traffic law | ||||||
2 | enforcement system to issue violations in instances where the | ||||||
3 | motor vehicle comes to a complete stop and does not enter the | ||||||
4 | intersection, as defined by Section 1-132 of this Code, during | ||||||
5 | the cycle of the red signal indication unless one or more | ||||||
6 | pedestrians or bicyclists are present, even if the motor | ||||||
7 | vehicle stops at a point past a stop line or crosswalk where a | ||||||
8 | driver is required to stop, as specified in subsection (c) of | ||||||
9 | Section 11-306 of this Code or a similar provision of a local | ||||||
10 | ordinance. | ||||||
11 | (c-6) A county, or a municipality with less than 2,000,000 | ||||||
12 | inhabitants, including a home rule county or municipality, may | ||||||
13 | not use an automated traffic law enforcement system to issue | ||||||
14 | violations in instances where a motorcyclist enters an | ||||||
15 | intersection against a red signal
indication when the red | ||||||
16 | signal fails to change to a green signal within a reasonable | ||||||
17 | period of time not less than 120 seconds because of a signal | ||||||
18 | malfunction or because the signal has failed to detect the | ||||||
19 | arrival of the motorcycle due to the motorcycle's size or | ||||||
20 | weight. | ||||||
21 | (d) For each violation of a provision of this Code or a | ||||||
22 | local ordinance
recorded by an automatic
traffic law | ||||||
23 | enforcement system, the county or municipality having
| ||||||
24 | jurisdiction shall issue a written notice of the
violation to | ||||||
25 | the registered owner of the vehicle as the alleged
violator. | ||||||
26 | The notice shall be delivered to the registered
owner of the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | vehicle, by mail, within 30 days after the Secretary of State | ||||||
2 | notifies the municipality or county of the identity of the | ||||||
3 | owner of the vehicle, but in no event later than 90 days after | ||||||
4 | the violation.
| ||||||
5 | The notice shall include:
| ||||||
6 | (1) the name and address of the registered owner of | ||||||
7 | the
vehicle;
| ||||||
8 | (2) the registration number of the motor vehicle
| ||||||
9 | involved in the violation;
| ||||||
10 | (3) the violation charged;
| ||||||
11 | (4) the location where the violation occurred;
| ||||||
12 | (5) the date and time of the violation;
| ||||||
13 | (6) a copy of the recorded images;
| ||||||
14 | (7) the amount of the civil penalty imposed and the | ||||||
15 | requirements of any traffic education program imposed and | ||||||
16 | the date
by which the civil penalty should be paid and the | ||||||
17 | traffic education program should be completed;
| ||||||
18 | (8) a statement that recorded images are evidence of a
| ||||||
19 | violation of a red light signal;
| ||||||
20 | (9) a warning that failure to pay the civil penalty, | ||||||
21 | to complete a required traffic education program, or to
| ||||||
22 | contest liability in a timely manner is an admission of
| ||||||
23 | liability;
| ||||||
24 | (10) a statement that the person may elect to proceed | ||||||
25 | by:
| ||||||
26 | (A) paying the fine, completing a required traffic |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | education program, or both; or
| ||||||
2 | (B) challenging the charge in court, by mail, or | ||||||
3 | by administrative hearing; and
| ||||||
4 | (11) a website address, accessible through the | ||||||
5 | Internet, where the person may view the recorded images of | ||||||
6 | the violation. | ||||||
7 | (e) (Blank).
| ||||||
8 | (f) Based on inspection of recorded images produced by an
| ||||||
9 | automated traffic law enforcement system, a notice alleging | ||||||
10 | that the violation occurred shall be evidence of the facts | ||||||
11 | contained
in the notice and admissible in any proceeding | ||||||
12 | alleging a
violation under this Section.
| ||||||
13 | (g) Recorded images made by an automatic traffic law
| ||||||
14 | enforcement system are confidential and shall be made
| ||||||
15 | available only to the alleged violator and governmental and
| ||||||
16 | law enforcement agencies for purposes of adjudicating a
| ||||||
17 | violation of this Section, for statistical purposes, or for | ||||||
18 | other governmental purposes. Any recorded image evidencing a
| ||||||
19 | violation of this Section, however, may be admissible in
any | ||||||
20 | proceeding resulting from the issuance of the citation.
| ||||||
21 | (h) The court or hearing officer may consider in defense | ||||||
22 | of a violation:
| ||||||
23 | (1) that the motor vehicle or registration plates or | ||||||
24 | digital registration plates of the motor
vehicle were | ||||||
25 | stolen before the violation occurred and not
under the | ||||||
26 | control of or in the possession of the owner at
the time of |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | the violation;
| ||||||
2 | (2) that the driver of the vehicle passed through the
| ||||||
3 | intersection when the light was red either (i) in order to
| ||||||
4 | yield the right-of-way to an emergency vehicle or (ii) as
| ||||||
5 | part of a funeral procession; and

21 | complete a required traffic education program, or both, in a | ||||||
22 | timely manner, if the motor vehicle is recorded by an | ||||||
23 | automated traffic law
enforcement system. A violation for | ||||||
24 | which a civil penalty is imposed
under this Section is not a | ||||||
25 | violation of a traffic regulation governing
the movement of | ||||||
26 | vehicles and may not be recorded on the driving record
of the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | owner of the vehicle.
| ||||||
2 | (j-3) A registered owner who is a holder of a valid | ||||||

2 | determine the cause and severity of the crashes accidents , and | ||||||
3 | may take any action that it determines is necessary or | ||||||
4 | appropriate to reduce the number or severity of the crashes | ||||||
5 | accidents at that intersection. | ||||||
6 | (l) The compensation paid for an automated traffic law | ||||||
7 | enforcement system
must be based on the value of the equipment | ||||||
8 | or the services provided and may
not be based on the number of | ||||||
9 | traffic citations issued or the revenue generated
by the | ||||||
10 | system.
| ||||||
11 | (m) This Section applies only to the counties of Cook, | ||||||
12 | DuPage, Kane, Lake, Madison, McHenry, St. Clair, and Will and | ||||||

17 | (6) a copy of the recorded images; | ||||||
18 | (7) the amount of the civil penalty imposed and the | ||||||
19 | date
by which the civil penalty should be paid; | ||||||
20 | (8) a statement that recorded images are evidence of a
| ||||||
21 | violation of overtaking or passing a school bus stopped | ||||||
22 | for the purpose of receiving or discharging pupils; | ||||||
23 | (9) a warning that failure to pay the civil penalty or | ||||||
24 | to
contest liability in a timely manner is an admission of
| ||||||
25 | liability; | ||||||
26 | (10) a statement that the person may elect to proceed |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | by: | ||||||
2 | (A) paying the fine; or | ||||||
3 | (B) challenging the charge in court, by mail, or | ||||||
4 | by administrative hearing; and | ||||||
5 | (11) a website address, accessible through the | ||||||
6 | Internet, where the person may view the recorded images of | ||||||
7 | the violation. | ||||||
8 | (f) (Blank). | ||||||
9 | (g) Based on inspection of recorded images produced by an
| ||||||
10 | automated traffic law enforcement system, a notice alleging | ||||||
11 | that the violation occurred shall be evidence of the facts | ||||||
12 | contained
in the notice and admissible in any proceeding | ||||||
13 | alleging a
violation under this Section. | ||||||
14 | (h) Recorded images made by an automated traffic law
| ||||||
15 | enforcement system are confidential and shall be made
| ||||||
16 | available only to the alleged violator and governmental and
| ||||||
17 | law enforcement agencies for purposes of adjudicating a
| ||||||
18 | violation of this Section, for statistical purposes, or for | ||||||
19 | other governmental purposes. Any recorded image evidencing a

21 | proceeding resulting from the issuance of the citation. | ||||||
22 | (i) The court or hearing officer may consider in defense | ||||||
23 | of a violation: | ||||||
24 | (1) that the motor vehicle or registration plates or | ||||||
25 | digital registration plates of the motor
vehicle were | ||||||
26 | stolen before the violation occurred and not
under the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | control of or in the possession of the owner at
the time of | ||||||
2 | the violation; | ||||||
3 | (2) that the driver of the motor vehicle received a | ||||||
4 | Uniform Traffic Citation from a police officer for a | ||||||
5 | violation of Section 11-1414 of this Code within | ||||||
6 | one-eighth of a mile and 15 minutes of the violation that | ||||||
7 | was recorded by the system; | ||||||
8 | (3) that the visual signals required by Sections | ||||||
9 | 12-803 and 12-805 of this Code were damaged, not | ||||||
10 | activated, not present in violation of Sections 12-803 and | ||||||
11 | 12-805, or inoperable; and | ||||||
12 | (4) any other evidence or issues provided by municipal | ||||||
13 | or county ordinance. | ||||||
14 | (j) To demonstrate that the motor vehicle or the | ||||||
15 | registration
plates or digital registration plates were stolen | ||||||
16 | before the violation occurred and were not under the
control | ||||||
17 | or possession of the owner at the time of the violation, the
| ||||||
18 | owner must submit proof that a report concerning the stolen
| ||||||
19 | motor vehicle or registration plates was filed with a law | ||||||
20 | enforcement agency in a timely manner. | ||||||
21 | (k) Unless the driver of the motor vehicle received a | ||||||
22 | Uniform
Traffic Citation from a police officer at the time of | ||||||
23 | the violation,
the motor vehicle owner is subject to a civil | ||||||
24 | penalty not exceeding
$150 for a first time violation or $500 | ||||||
25 | for a second or subsequent violation, plus an additional | ||||||
26 | penalty of not more than $100 for failure to pay the original |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | penalty in a timely manner, if the motor vehicle is recorded by | ||||||
2 | an automated traffic law
enforcement system. A violation for | ||||||
3 | which a civil penalty is imposed
under this Section is not a | ||||||
4 | violation of a traffic regulation governing
the movement of | ||||||
5 | vehicles and may not be recorded on the driving record
of the | ||||||
6 | owner of the vehicle, but may be recorded by the municipality | ||||||
7 | or county for the purpose of determining if a person is subject | ||||||
8 | to the higher fine for a second or subsequent offense. | ||||||
9 | (l) A school bus equipped with an automated traffic law
| ||||||
10 | enforcement system must be posted with a sign indicating that | ||||||
11 | the school bus is being monitored by an automated
traffic law | ||||||
12 | enforcement system. | ||||||
13 | (m) A municipality or
county that has one or more school | ||||||
14 | buses equipped with an automated traffic law
enforcement | ||||||
15 | system must provide notice to drivers by posting a list of | ||||||
16 | school districts using school buses equipped with an automated | ||||||
17 | traffic law enforcement system on the municipality or county | ||||||
18 | website. School districts that have one or more school buses | ||||||
19 | equipped with an automated traffic law enforcement system must | ||||||
20 | provide notice to drivers by posting that information on their | ||||||
21 | websites. | ||||||
22 | (n) A municipality or county operating an automated | ||||||
23 | traffic law enforcement system shall conduct a statistical | ||||||
24 | analysis to assess the safety impact in each school district | ||||||
25 | using school buses equipped with an automated traffic law | ||||||
26 | enforcement system following installation of the system. The |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | statistical analysis shall be based upon the best available | ||||||
2 | crash, traffic, and other data, and shall cover a period of | ||||||
3 | time before and after installation of the system sufficient to | ||||||
4 | provide a statistically valid comparison of safety impact. The | ||||||
5 | statistical analysis shall be consistent with professional | ||||||
6 | judgment and acceptable industry practice. The statistical | ||||||
7 | analysis also shall be consistent with the data required for | ||||||
8 | valid comparisons of before and after conditions and shall be | ||||||
9 | conducted within a reasonable period following the | ||||||
10 | installation of the automated traffic law enforcement system. | ||||||
11 | The statistical analysis required by this subsection shall be | ||||||
12 | made available to the public and shall be published on the | ||||||
13 | website of the municipality or county. If the statistical | ||||||
14 | analysis for the 36-month period following installation of the | ||||||
15 | system indicates that there has been an increase in the rate of | ||||||
16 | crashes accidents at the approach to school buses monitored by | ||||||
17 | the system, the municipality or county shall undertake | ||||||
18 | additional studies to determine the cause and severity of the | ||||||
19 | crashes accidents , and may take any action that it determines | ||||||
20 | is necessary or appropriate to reduce the number or severity | ||||||
21 | of the crashes accidents involving school buses equipped with | ||||||
22 | an automated traffic law enforcement system. | ||||||
23 | (o) The compensation paid for an automated traffic law | ||||||
24 | enforcement system
must be based on the value of the equipment | ||||||
25 | or the services provided and may
not be based on the number of | ||||||
26 | traffic citations issued or the revenue generated
by the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | system. | ||||||
2 | (p) No person who is the lessor of a motor vehicle pursuant | ||||||
3 | to a written lease agreement shall be liable for an automated | ||||||
4 | speed or traffic law enforcement system violation involving | ||||||
5 | such motor vehicle during the period of the lease; provided | ||||||
6 | that upon the request of the appropriate authority received | ||||||
7 | within 120 days after the violation occurred, the lessor | ||||||
8 | provides within 60 days after such receipt the name and | ||||||
9 | address of the lessee. | ||||||
10 | Upon the provision of information by the lessor pursuant | ||||||
11 | to this subsection, the county or municipality may issue the | ||||||
12 | violation to the lessee of the vehicle in the same manner as it | ||||||
13 | would issue a violation to a registered owner of a vehicle | ||||||
14 | pursuant to this Section, and the lessee may be held liable for | ||||||
15 | the violation. | ||||||
16 | (q) (Blank). | ||||||
17 | (r) After a municipality or county enacts an ordinance | ||||||
18 | providing for automated traffic law enforcement systems under | ||||||
19 | this Section, each school district within that municipality or | ||||||
20 | county's jurisdiction may implement an automated traffic law | ||||||
21 | enforcement system under this Section. The elected school | ||||||
22 | board for that district must approve the implementation of an | ||||||
23 | automated traffic law enforcement system. The school district | ||||||
24 | shall be responsible for entering into a contract, approved by | ||||||
25 | the elected school board of that district, with vendors for | ||||||
26 | the installation, maintenance, and operation of the automated |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | traffic law enforcement system. The school district must enter | ||||||
2 | into an intergovernmental agreement, approved by the elected | ||||||
3 | school board of that district, with the municipality or county | ||||||
4 | with jurisdiction over that school district for the | ||||||
5 | administration of the automated traffic law enforcement | ||||||
6 | system. The proceeds from a school district's automated | ||||||
7 | traffic law enforcement system's fines shall be divided | ||||||
8 | equally between the school district and the municipality or | ||||||
9 | county administering the automated traffic law enforcement | ||||||
10 | system.

11 | and
the court of venue. The Secretary of State shall also mail | ||||||
12 | notice of the effective date of the disqualification to the | ||||||
13 | person. However, should the sworn report be defective by not
| ||||||
14 | containing sufficient information or be completed in error, | ||||||
15 | the
confirmation of the statutory summary suspension or | ||||||
16 | revocation shall not be mailed to the
person or entered to the | ||||||
17 | record; instead, the sworn report shall
be
forwarded to the | ||||||
18 | court of venue with a copy returned to the issuing agency

| ||||||
5 | (a) Upon the trial of any civil or criminal action or | ||||||
6 | proceeding arising out
of an arrest for an offense as defined | ||||||
7 | in Section 11-501 or a similar local
ordinance or proceedings | ||||||
8 | pursuant to Section 2-118.1, evidence of the
concentration of | ||||||
9 | alcohol, other drug or drugs, or intoxicating compound or
| ||||||
10 | compounds, or any combination thereof in a person's blood
or | ||||||
11 | breath at the time alleged, as determined by analysis of the | ||||||
12 | person's blood,
urine, breath, or other bodily substance, | ||||||
13 | shall be admissible. Where such test
is made the following | ||||||
14 | provisions shall apply:
| ||||||
15 | 1. Chemical analyses of the person's blood, urine, | ||||||
16 | breath, or other bodily
substance to be considered valid | ||||||
17 | under the provisions of this Section shall
have been | ||||||
18 | performed according to standards promulgated by the | ||||||
19 | Illinois State Police
by
a licensed physician, registered | ||||||
20 | nurse, trained phlebotomist, licensed paramedic, or other | ||||||
21 | individual
possessing a valid permit issued by that | ||||||
22 | Department for
this purpose. The Director of the Illinois | ||||||
23 | State Police is authorized to approve satisfactory
| ||||||
24 | techniques or methods, to ascertain the qualifications and | ||||||
25 | competence of
individuals to conduct such analyses, to |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | issue permits which shall be subject
to termination or | ||||||
2 | revocation at the discretion of that Department and to
| ||||||
3 | certify the accuracy of breath testing equipment. The | ||||||
4 | Illinois
State Police shall prescribe regulations as | ||||||
5 | necessary to
implement this
Section.
| ||||||
6 | 2. When a person in this State shall submit to a blood | ||||||
7 | test at the request
of a law enforcement officer under the | ||||||
8 | provisions of Section 11-501.1, only a
physician | ||||||
9 | authorized to practice medicine, a licensed physician | ||||||
10 | assistant, a licensed advanced practice registered nurse, | ||||||
11 | a registered nurse, trained
phlebotomist, or licensed | ||||||
12 | paramedic, or other
qualified person approved by the | ||||||
13 | Illinois State Police may withdraw blood
for the purpose | ||||||
14 | of determining the alcohol, drug, or alcohol and drug | ||||||
15 | content
therein. This limitation shall not apply to the | ||||||
16 | taking of breath, other bodily substance, or urine
| ||||||
17 | specimens.
| ||||||
18 | When a blood test of a person who has been taken to an | ||||||
19 | adjoining state
for medical treatment is requested by an | ||||||
20 | Illinois law enforcement officer,
the blood may be | ||||||
21 | withdrawn only by a physician authorized to practice
| ||||||
22 | medicine in the adjoining state, a licensed physician | ||||||
23 | assistant, a licensed advanced practice registered nurse, | ||||||
24 | a registered nurse, a trained
phlebotomist acting under | ||||||
25 | the direction of the physician, or licensed
paramedic. The | ||||||
26 | law
enforcement officer requesting the test shall take |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | custody of the blood
sample, and the blood sample shall be | ||||||
2 | analyzed by a laboratory certified by the
Illinois State | ||||||
3 | Police for that purpose.
| ||||||
4 | 3. The person tested may have a physician, or a | ||||||
5 | qualified technician,
chemist, registered nurse, or other | ||||||
6 | qualified person of their own choosing
administer a | ||||||
7 | chemical test or tests in addition to any administered at | ||||||
8 | the
direction of a law enforcement officer. The failure or | ||||||
9 | inability to obtain
an additional test by a person shall | ||||||
10 | not preclude the admission of evidence
relating to the | ||||||
11 | test or tests taken at the direction of a law enforcement
| ||||||
12 | officer.
| ||||||
13 | 4. Upon the request of the person who shall submit to a | ||||||
14 | chemical test
or tests at the request of a law enforcement | ||||||
15 | officer, full information
concerning the test or tests | ||||||
16 | shall be made available to the person or such
person's | ||||||
17 | attorney.
| ||||||
18 | 5. Alcohol concentration shall mean either grams of | ||||||
19 | alcohol per 100
milliliters of blood or grams of alcohol | ||||||
20 | per 210 liters of breath.
| ||||||
21 | 6. Tetrahydrocannabinol concentration means either 5 | ||||||
22 | nanograms or more of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol per | ||||||
23 | milliliter of whole blood or 10 nanograms or more of | ||||||
24 | delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol per milliliter of other | ||||||
25 | bodily substance. | ||||||
26 | (a-5) Law enforcement officials may use validated roadside |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | chemical tests or standardized field sobriety tests approved | ||||||
2 | by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration when | ||||||
3 | conducting investigations of a violation of Section 11-501 or | ||||||
4 | similar local ordinance by drivers suspected of driving under | ||||||
5 | the influence of cannabis. The General Assembly finds that (i) | ||||||
6 | validated roadside chemical tests are effective means to | ||||||
7 | determine if a person is under the influence of cannabis and | ||||||
8 | (ii) standardized field sobriety tests approved by the | ||||||
9 | National Highway Traffic Safety Administration are divided | ||||||
10 | attention tasks that are intended to determine if a person is | ||||||
11 | under the influence of cannabis. The purpose of these tests is | ||||||
12 | to determine the effect of the use of cannabis on a person's | ||||||
13 | capacity to think and act with ordinary care and therefore | ||||||
14 | operate a motor vehicle safely. Therefore, the results of | ||||||
15 | these validated roadside chemical tests and standardized field | ||||||
16 | sobriety tests, appropriately administered, shall be | ||||||
17 | admissible in the trial of any civil or criminal action or | ||||||
18 | proceeding arising out of an arrest for a cannabis-related | ||||||
19 | offense as defined in Section 11-501 or a similar local | ||||||
20 | ordinance or proceedings under Section 2-118.1 or 2-118.2. | ||||||
21 | Where a test is made the following provisions shall apply: | ||||||
22 | 1. The person tested may have a physician, or a | ||||||
23 | qualified technician, chemist, registered nurse, or other | ||||||
24 | qualified person of their own choosing administer a | ||||||
25 | chemical test or tests in addition to the standardized | ||||||
26 | field sobriety test or tests administered at the direction |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | of a law enforcement officer. The failure or inability to | ||||||
2 | obtain an additional test by a person does not preclude | ||||||
3 | the admission of evidence relating to the test or tests | ||||||
4 | taken at the direction of a law enforcement officer. | ||||||
5 | 2. Upon the request of the person who shall submit to | ||||||
6 | validated roadside chemical tests or a standardized field | ||||||
7 | sobriety test or tests at the request of a law enforcement | ||||||
8 | officer, full information concerning the test or tests | ||||||
9 | shall be made available to the person or the person's | ||||||
10 | attorney. | ||||||
11 | 3. At the trial of any civil or criminal action or | ||||||
12 | proceeding arising out of an arrest for an offense as | ||||||
13 | defined in Section 11-501 or a similar local ordinance or | ||||||
14 | proceedings under Section 2-118.1 or 2-118.2 in which the | ||||||
15 | results of these validated roadside chemical tests or | ||||||
16 | standardized field sobriety tests are admitted, the person | ||||||
17 | may present and the trier of fact may consider evidence | ||||||
18 | that the person lacked the physical capacity to perform | ||||||
19 | the validated roadside chemical tests or standardized | ||||||
20 | field sobriety tests. | ||||||
21 | (b) Upon the trial of any civil or criminal action or | ||||||
22 | proceeding arising
out of acts alleged to have been committed | ||||||
23 | by any person while driving or
in actual physical control of a | ||||||
24 | vehicle while under the influence of alcohol,
the | ||||||
25 | concentration of alcohol in the person's blood or breath at | ||||||
26 | the time
alleged as shown by analysis of the person's blood, |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | urine, breath, or other
bodily substance shall give rise to | ||||||
2 | the following presumptions:
| ||||||
3 | 1. If there was at that time an alcohol concentration | ||||||
4 | of 0.05 or less,
it shall be presumed that the person was | ||||||
5 | not under the influence of alcohol.
| ||||||
6 | 2. If there was at that time an alcohol concentration | ||||||
7 | in excess of 0.05
but less than 0.08, such facts shall not | ||||||
8 | give rise to any
presumption that
the person was or was not | ||||||
9 | under the influence of alcohol, but such fact
may be | ||||||
10 | considered with other competent evidence in determining | ||||||
11 | whether the
person was under the influence of alcohol.
| ||||||
12 | 3. If there was at that time an alcohol concentration | ||||||
13 | of 0.08
or more,
it shall be presumed that the person was | ||||||
14 | under the influence of alcohol.
| ||||||
15 | 4. The foregoing provisions of this Section shall not | ||||||
16 | be construed as
limiting the introduction of any other | ||||||
17 | relevant evidence bearing upon the
question whether the | ||||||
18 | person was under the influence of alcohol.
| ||||||
19 | (b-5) Upon the trial of any civil or criminal action or | ||||||
20 | proceeding arising out of acts alleged to have been committed | ||||||
21 | by any person while driving or in actual physical control of a | ||||||
22 | vehicle while under the influence of alcohol, other drug or | ||||||
23 | drugs, intoxicating compound or compounds or any combination | ||||||
24 | thereof, the concentration of cannabis in the person's whole | ||||||
25 | blood or other bodily substance at the time alleged as shown by | ||||||
26 | analysis of the person's blood or other bodily substance shall |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | give rise to the following presumptions: | ||||||
2 | 1. If there was a tetrahydrocannabinol concentration | ||||||
3 | of 5 nanograms or more in whole blood or 10 nanograms or | ||||||
4 | more in an other bodily substance as defined in this | ||||||
5 | Section, it shall be presumed that the person was under | ||||||
6 | the influence of cannabis. | ||||||
7 | 2. If there was at that time a tetrahydrocannabinol | ||||||
8 | concentration of less than 5 nanograms in whole blood or | ||||||
9 | less than 10 nanograms in an other bodily substance, such | ||||||
10 | facts shall not give rise to any
presumption that
the | ||||||
11 | person was or was not under the influence of cannabis, but | ||||||
12 | such fact
may be considered with other competent evidence | ||||||
13 | in determining whether the
person was under the influence | ||||||
14 | of cannabis.
| ||||||
15 | (c) 1. If a person under arrest refuses to submit to a | ||||||
16 | chemical test
under
the provisions of Section 11-501.1, | ||||||
17 | evidence of refusal shall be admissible
in any civil or | ||||||
18 | criminal action or proceeding arising out of acts alleged
to | ||||||
19 | have been committed while the person under the influence of | ||||||
20 | alcohol,
other drug or drugs, or intoxicating compound or | ||||||
21 | compounds, or
any combination thereof was driving or in actual | ||||||
22 | physical
control of a motor vehicle.
| ||||||
23 | 2. Notwithstanding any ability to refuse under this Code | ||||||
24 | to submit to
these tests or any ability to revoke the implied | ||||||
25 | consent to these tests, if a
law enforcement officer has | ||||||
26 | probable cause to believe that a motor vehicle
driven by or in |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | actual physical control of a person under the influence of
| ||||||
2 | alcohol, other drug or drugs, or intoxicating compound or
| ||||||
3 | compounds,
or any combination thereof
has caused the death or
| ||||||
4 | personal injury to another, the law enforcement officer shall | ||||||
5 | request, and that person shall submit, upon the request of a | ||||||
6 | law
enforcement officer, to a chemical test or tests of his or | ||||||
7 | her blood, breath, other bodily substance, or
urine for the | ||||||
8 | purpose of
determining the alcohol content thereof or the | ||||||
9 | presence of any other drug or
combination of both.
| ||||||
10 | This provision does not affect the applicability of or | ||||||
11 | imposition of driver's
license sanctions under Section | ||||||
12 | 11-501.1 of this Code.
| ||||||
13 | 3. For purposes of this Section, a personal injury | ||||||
14 | includes any Type A
injury as indicated on the traffic crash | ||||||
15 | accident report completed by a law
enforcement officer that | ||||||
16 | requires immediate professional attention in either a
doctor's | ||||||
17 | office or a medical facility. A Type A injury includes severe
| ||||||
18 | bleeding wounds, distorted extremities, and injuries that | ||||||
19 | require the injured
party to be carried from the scene.
| ||||||
20 | (d) If a person refuses validated roadside chemical tests | ||||||
21 | or standardized field sobriety tests under Section 11-501.9 of | ||||||
22 | this Code, evidence of refusal shall be admissible in any | ||||||
23 | civil or criminal action or proceeding arising out of acts | ||||||
24 | committed while the person was driving or in actual physical | ||||||
25 | control of a vehicle and alleged to have been impaired by the | ||||||
26 | use of cannabis. |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (e) Illinois State Police compliance with the changes in | ||||||
2 | this amendatory Act of the 99th General Assembly concerning | ||||||
3 | testing of other bodily substances and tetrahydrocannabinol | ||||||
4 | concentration by Illinois State Police laboratories is subject | ||||||
5 | to appropriation and until the Illinois State Police adopt | ||||||
6 | standards and completion validation. Any laboratories that | ||||||
7 | test for the presence of cannabis or other drugs under this | ||||||
8 | Article, the Snowmobile Registration and Safety Act, or the | ||||||
9 | Boat Registration and Safety Act must comply with ISO/IEC | ||||||

of suspension and disqualification. If the Secretary | ||||||
6 | does not rescind the orders of suspension and | ||||||
7 | disqualification, a restricted
driving permit may be granted | ||||||
8 | by the Secretary upon application being made and
good cause | ||||||
9 | shown. A restricted driving permit may be granted to relieve | ||||||
10 | undue
hardship to allow driving for employment, educational, | ||||||
11 | and medical purposes as
outlined in Section 6-206 of this | ||||||
12 | Code. The provisions of Section 6-206 of
this Code shall | ||||||
13 | apply. In accordance with 49 C.F.R. 384, the Secretary of | ||||||
14 | State may not issue a restricted driving permit for the | ||||||

9 | costs of
participation in the Program upon a finding of | ||||||
10 | indigency.
| ||||||
11 | (c) As used in this Section, "appropriate victims" means | ||||||
12 | victims whose
condition is determined by the visit supervisor | ||||||
13 | to demonstrate the results of
motor vehicle crashes accidents | ||||||
14 | involving persons under the influence of alcohol
without being | ||||||
15 | excessively gruesome or traumatic to the observer.
| ||||||
16 | (d) Any visitation shall include, before any observation | ||||||

supervisor at which the | ||||||
19 | supervisor shall explain and discuss the
experiences which may | ||||||
20 | be encountered during the visitation in order to
ascertain | ||||||

4 | (iv) Upon a request of the person who submits to a | ||||||
5 | chemical test or
tests at the request of a law enforcement | ||||||

10 | A person requested to submit to a test shall also | ||||||
11 | acknowledge, in writing, receipt of the warning required under | ||||||
12 | this Section. If the person refuses to acknowledge receipt of | ||||||
13 | the warning, the law enforcement officer shall make a written | ||||||
14 | notation on the warning that the person refused to sign the | ||||||
15 | warning. A person's refusal to sign the warning shall not be | ||||||
16 | evidence that the person was not read the warning. | ||||||
17 | (d) If the person refuses testing or submits to a test that | ||||||
18 | discloses an
alcohol concentration of more than 0.00, the law | ||||||
19 | enforcement officer shall
immediately submit a sworn report to | ||||||

22 | subsection (a) and the person refused to submit to a test
or | ||||||
23 | tests or submitted to testing which disclosed an alcohol | ||||||
24 | concentration of
more than 0.00. The law enforcement officer | ||||||
25 | shall submit the same sworn report
when a person under the age | ||||||
26 | of 21 submits to testing under Section
11-501.1 of this Code |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | and the testing discloses an alcohol concentration of
more | ||||||
2 | than 0.00 and less than 0.08.
| ||||||
3 | Upon receipt of the sworn report of a law enforcement | ||||||
4 | officer, the Secretary
of State shall enter the suspension and | ||||||
5 | disqualification on the individual's driving
record and the | ||||||
6 | suspension and disqualification shall be effective on the 46th | ||||||
7 | day following the date
notice of the suspension was given to | ||||||
8 | the person. If this suspension is the
individual's first | ||||||
9 | driver's license suspension under this Section, reports
| ||||||
10 | received by the Secretary of State under this Section shall, | ||||||
11 | except during the
time the suspension is in effect, be | ||||||
12 | privileged information and for use only by
the courts, police | ||||||
13 | officers, prosecuting authorities, the Secretary of State,
or | ||||||
14 | the individual personally, unless the person is a CDL holder, | ||||||
15 | is operating a commercial motor vehicle or vehicle required to | ||||||
16 | be placarded for hazardous materials, in which case the | ||||||
17 | suspension shall not be privileged.
Reports received by the | ||||||
18 | Secretary of State under this Section shall also be made | ||||||
19 | available to the parent or guardian of a person under the age | ||||||
20 | of 18 years that holds an instruction permit or a graduated | ||||||
21 | driver's license, regardless of whether the suspension is in | ||||||
22 | effect.
| ||||||
23 | The law enforcement officer submitting the sworn report | ||||||
24 | shall serve immediate
notice of this suspension on the person | ||||||
25 | and the suspension and disqualification shall
be effective on | ||||||
26 | the 46th day following the date notice was given.
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | In cases where the blood alcohol concentration of more | ||||||
2 | than 0.00 is
established by a subsequent analysis of blood, | ||||||
3 | other bodily substance, or urine, the police officer or
| ||||||
4 | arresting agency shall give notice as provided in this Section | ||||||
5 | or by deposit
in the United States mail of that notice in an | ||||||
6 | envelope with postage prepaid
and addressed to that person at | ||||||
7 | his last known address and the loss of driving
privileges | ||||||
8 | shall be effective on the 46th day following the date notice | ||||||
9 | was
given.
| ||||||
10 | Upon receipt of the sworn report of a law enforcement | ||||||
11 | officer, the Secretary
of State shall also give notice of the | ||||||
12 | suspension and disqualification to the driver
by mailing a | ||||||
13 | notice of the effective date of the suspension and | ||||||
14 | disqualification to the individual.
However, should the sworn | ||||||
15 | report be defective by not containing sufficient
information | ||||||
16 | or be completed in error, the notice of the suspension and | ||||||
17 | disqualification shall not be mailed to the person or entered | ||||||
18 | to the driving record,
but rather the sworn report shall be | ||||||
19 | returned to the issuing law enforcement
agency.
| ||||||
20 | (e) A driver may contest this suspension and | ||||||
21 | disqualification by requesting an
administrative hearing with | ||||||
22 | the Secretary of State in accordance with Section
2-118 of | ||||||
23 | this Code. An individual whose blood alcohol concentration is | ||||||
24 | shown
to be more than 0.00 is not subject to this Section if he | ||||||
25 | or she consumed
alcohol in the performance of a religious | ||||||
26 | service or ceremony. An individual
whose blood alcohol |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | concentration is shown to be more than 0.00 shall not be
| ||||||
2 | subject to this Section if the individual's blood alcohol | ||||||
3 | concentration
resulted only from ingestion of the prescribed | ||||||
4 | or recommended dosage of
medicine that contained alcohol. The | ||||||
5 | petition for that hearing shall not stay
or delay the | ||||||
6 | effective date of the impending suspension. The scope of this
| ||||||
7 | hearing shall be limited to the issues of:
| ||||||
8 | (1) whether the police officer had probable cause to | ||||||
9 | believe that the
person was driving or in actual physical | ||||||
10 | control of a motor vehicle upon the
public highways of the | ||||||
11 | State and the police officer had reason to believe that
| ||||||
12 | the person was in violation of any provision of the | ||||||
13 | Illinois Vehicle Code or a
similar provision of a local | ||||||
14 | ordinance; and
| ||||||
15 | (2) whether the person was issued a Uniform Traffic | ||||||
16 | Ticket for any
violation of the Illinois Vehicle Code or a | ||||||
17 | similar provision of a local
ordinance; and
| ||||||
18 | (3) whether the police officer had probable cause to | ||||||
19 | believe that the
driver
had consumed any amount of an | ||||||
20 | alcoholic beverage based upon the driver's
physical | ||||||
21 | actions or other first-hand knowledge of the police | ||||||
22 | officer; and
| ||||||
23 | (4) whether the person, after being advised by the | ||||||
24 | officer that the
privilege to operate a motor vehicle | ||||||
25 | would be suspended if the person refused
to submit to and | ||||||
26 | complete the test or tests, did refuse to submit to or
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | complete the test or tests to determine the person's | ||||||
2 | alcohol concentration;
and
| ||||||
3 | (5) whether the person, after being advised by the | ||||||
4 | officer that the
privileges to operate a motor vehicle | ||||||
5 | would be suspended if the person submits
to a chemical | ||||||
6 | test or tests and the test or tests disclose an alcohol
| ||||||
7 | concentration of more than 0.00, did submit to and
| ||||||
8 | complete the
test or tests that determined an alcohol | ||||||
9 | concentration of more than 0.00; and
| ||||||
10 | (6) whether the test result of an alcohol | ||||||
11 | concentration of more than 0.00
was based upon the | ||||||
12 | person's consumption of alcohol in the performance of a
| ||||||
13 | religious service or ceremony; and
| ||||||
14 | (7) whether the test result of an alcohol | ||||||
15 | concentration of more than 0.00
was based upon the | ||||||
16 | person's consumption of alcohol through ingestion of the
| ||||||
17 | prescribed or recommended dosage of medicine.
| ||||||
18 | At the conclusion of the hearing held under Section 2-118 | ||||||
19 | of
this Code, the Secretary of State may rescind, continue, or | ||||||
20 | modify the suspension and disqualification. If the Secretary | ||||||
21 | of State does not rescind the suspension and disqualification, | ||||||
22 | a
restricted driving permit may be granted by the Secretary of | ||||||
23 | State upon
application being made and good cause shown. A | ||||||
24 | restricted driving permit may be
granted to relieve undue | ||||||
25 | hardship by allowing driving for employment,
educational, and | ||||||
26 | medical purposes as outlined in item (3) of part (c) of
Section |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | 6-206 of this Code. The provisions of item (3) of part (c) of | ||||||
2 | Section
6-206 of this Code and of subsection (f) of that | ||||||
3 | Section shall apply. The Secretary of State shall promulgate | ||||||
4 | rules
providing for participation in an alcohol education and | ||||||
5 | awareness program or
activity, a drug education and awareness | ||||||
6 | program or activity, or both as a
condition to the issuance of | ||||||
7 | a restricted driving permit for suspensions
imposed under this | ||||||
8 | Section.
| ||||||
9 | (f) The results of any chemical testing performed in | ||||||
10 | accordance with
subsection (a) of this Section are not | ||||||
11 | admissible in any civil or criminal
proceeding, except that | ||||||
12 | the results of the testing may be considered at a
hearing held | ||||||
13 | under Section 2-118 of this Code. However, the results of
the | ||||||
14 | testing may not be used to impose driver's license sanctions | ||||||
15 | under
Section 11-501.1 of this Code. A law enforcement officer | ||||||
16 | may, however, pursue
a statutory summary suspension or | ||||||
17 | revocation of driving privileges under Section 11-501.1 of
| ||||||
18 | this Code if other physical evidence or first hand knowledge | ||||||
19 | forms the basis
of that suspension or revocation.
| ||||||
20 | (g) This Section applies only to drivers who are under
age | ||||||
21 | 21 at the time of the issuance of a Uniform Traffic Ticket for | ||||||
22 | a
violation of the Illinois Vehicle Code or a similar | ||||||
23 | provision of a local
ordinance, and a chemical test request is | ||||||
24 | made under this Section.
| ||||||
25 | (h) The action of the Secretary of State in suspending, | ||||||
26 | revoking, cancelling, or
disqualifying any license or
permit |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | shall be
subject to judicial review in the Circuit Court of | ||||||
2 | Sangamon County or in the
Circuit Court of Cook County, and the | ||||||
3 | provisions of the Administrative Review
Law and its rules are | ||||||
4 | hereby adopted and shall apply to and govern every action
for | ||||||
5 | the judicial review of final acts or decisions of the | ||||||
6 | Secretary of State
under this Section.

2 | liability policies issued or renewed before January 1, 2013.
| ||||||
3 | (b) Liability insurance policies issued or renewed on and | ||||||
4 | after January 1, 2013 shall comply with the following: | ||||||
5 | (1) except as provided in subparagraph (2) of this | ||||||
6 | subsection (b), any vehicle that is used for a purpose | ||||||
7 | that requires a school bus driver permit under Section | ||||||
8 | 6-104 of this Code shall carry a minimum of liability | ||||||
9 | insurance in
the amount of $2,000,000. This minimum | ||||||
10 | insurance requirement may be satisfied by either (i) a | ||||||
11 | $2,000,000 combined single limit primary commercial | ||||||
12 | automobile policy; or (ii) a $1 million primary commercial | ||||||
13 | automobile policy and a minimum $5,000,000 excess or | ||||||
14 | umbrella liability policy; | ||||||
15 | (2) any vehicle that is used for a purpose that | ||||||
16 | requires a school bus driver permit under Section 6-104 of | ||||||
17 | this Code and is used in connection with the operation of | ||||||
18 | private day care facilities, day camps, summer camps, or | ||||||
19 | nursery schools shall carry a minimum of liability | ||||||
20 | insurance in
the amount of $1,000,000 combined single | ||||||

23 | for-profit
ridesharing arrangement shall carry a minimum | ||||||
24 | of liability insurance in
the amount of $500,000 combined | ||||||
25 | single limit per crash accident . | ||||||
26 | (c) Primary insurance coverage under the provisions of |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | this Section must be provided by a licensed and admitted | ||||||
2 | insurance carrier or an intergovernmental cooperative formed | ||||||
3 | under Section 10 of Article VII of the Illinois Constitution, | ||||||
4 | or Section 6 or 9 of the Intergovernmental Cooperation Act, or | ||||||
5 | provided by a certified self-insurer under Section 7-502 of | ||||||
6 | this Code. The excess or umbrella liability coverage | ||||||
7 | requirement may be met by securing surplus line insurance as | ||||||
8 | defined under Section 445 of the Illinois Insurance Code. If | ||||||
9 | the excess or umbrella liability coverage requirement is met | ||||||
10 | by securing surplus line insurance, that coverage must be | ||||||
11 | effected through a licensed surplus line producer acting under | ||||||
12 | the surplus line insurance laws and regulations of this State. | ||||||
13 | Nothing in this subsection (c) shall be construed as | ||||||
14 | prohibiting a licensed and admitted insurance carrier or an | ||||||
15 | intergovernmental cooperative formed under Section 10 of | ||||||
16 | Article VII of the Illinois Constitution, or Section 6 or 9 of | ||||||
17 | the Intergovernmental Cooperation Act, or a certified | ||||||
18 | self-insurer under Section 7-502 of this Code, from retaining | ||||||
19 | the risk required under paragraphs (1) and (2) of subsection | ||||||
20 | (b) of this Section or issuing a single primary policy meeting | ||||||
21 | the requirements of paragraphs (1) and (2) of subsection (b). | ||||||
22 | (d) Each owner of a vehicle required to obtain the minimum | ||||||
23 | liability requirements under subsection (b) of this Section | ||||||
24 | shall attest that the vehicle meets the minimum insurance | ||||||
25 | requirements under this Section. The Secretary of State shall | ||||||
26 | create a form for each owner of a vehicle to attest that the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | owner meets the minimum insurance requirements and the owner | ||||||
2 | of the vehicle shall submit the form with each registration | ||||||
3 | application. The form shall be valid for the full registration | ||||||
4 | period; however, if at any time the Secretary has reason to | ||||||
5 | believe that the owner does not have the minimum required | ||||||
6 | amount of insurance for a vehicle, then the Secretary may | ||||||
7 | require a certificate of insurance, or its equivalent, to | ||||||
8 | ensure the vehicle is insured. If the owner fails to produce a | ||||||
9 | certificate of insurance, or its equivalent, within 2 calendar | ||||||
10 | days after the request was made, then the Secretary may revoke | ||||||
11 | the vehicle owner's registration until the Secretary is | ||||||
12 | assured the vehicle meets the minimum insurance requirements. | ||||||
13 | If the owner of a vehicle participates in an intergovernmental | ||||||
14 | cooperative or is self-insured, then the owner shall attest | ||||||
15 | that the insurance required under this Section is equivalent | ||||||
16 | to or greater than the insurance required under paragraph (1) | ||||||
17 | of subsection (b) of this Section. The Secretary may adopt any | ||||||
18 | rules necessary to enforce the provisions of this subsection | ||||||
19 | (d). | ||||||

test provided for | ||||||
13 | in Chapter
13 of this Code. Tests shall be conducted at an | ||||||
14 | official testing station
within 6 months prior to the | ||||||
15 | application for registration as provided
for in this Code. | ||||||
16 | Subsequently each vehicle shall be subject to tests (i) at

1 | less than 26,001 pounds, at least every 12 months, and | ||||||
2 | according to
schedules established by rules and regulations | ||||||
3 | promulgated by the
Department. Any component subject to | ||||||
4 | regular inspection which is
damaged in a reportable crash | ||||||
5 | accident must be reinspected before the bus or first division | ||||||
6 | vehicle including a taxi which is used for a purpose that | ||||||
7 | requires a school bus driver permit is
returned to service.
| ||||||
8 | (b) The Department shall also conduct periodic | ||||||
9 | nonscheduled inspections
of school buses, of buses registered | ||||||
10 | as charitable vehicles and of
religious organization buses. If | ||||||
11 | such inspection reveals that a vehicle is
not in substantial | ||||||
12 | compliance with the rules promulgated by the Department,
the | ||||||
13 | Department shall remove the Certificate of Safety from the | ||||||
14 | vehicle, and
shall place the vehicle out-of-service. A bright | ||||||
15 | orange, triangular decal
shall be placed on an out-of-service | ||||||
16 | vehicle where the Certificate of
Safety has been removed. The | ||||||
17 | vehicle must pass a safety test at an
official testing station | ||||||
18 | before it is again placed in service.
| ||||||
19 | (c) If the violation is not substantial a bright yellow, | ||||||
20 | triangular
sticker shall be placed next to the Certificate of | ||||||
21 | Safety at the time the
nonscheduled inspection is made. The | ||||||
22 | Department shall reinspect the
vehicle after 3 working days to | ||||||
23 | determine that the violation has been
corrected and remove the | ||||||
24 | yellow, triangular decal. If the violation is not
corrected | ||||||
25 | within 3 working days, the Department shall place the vehicle
| ||||||
26 | out-of-service in accordance with procedures in subsection |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (b).
| ||||||
2 | (d) If a violation is not substantial and does not | ||||||
3 | directly affect the
safe operation of the vehicle, the | ||||||
4 | Department shall issue a warning notice
requiring correction | ||||||
5 | of the violation. Such correction shall be
accomplished as | ||||||
6 | soon as practicable and a report of the correction shall be
| ||||||
7 | made to the Department within 30 days in a manner established | ||||||
8 | by the
Department. If the Department has not been advised that | ||||||
9 | the corrections
have been made, and the violations still | ||||||
10 | exist, the Department shall place
the vehicle out-of-service | ||||||
11 | in accordance with procedures in subsection
(b).
| ||||||
12 | (e) The Department is authorized to promulgate regulations | ||||||
13 | to implement its
program of nonscheduled inspections. Causing | ||||||
14 | or allowing the operation of
an out-of-service vehicle with | ||||||
15 | passengers or unauthorized removal of an
out-of-service | ||||||
16 | sticker is a Class 3 felony. Causing or allowing the
operation | ||||||
17 | of a vehicle with a 3-day sticker for longer than 3 days with | ||||||
18 | the
sticker attached or the unauthorized removal of a 3-day | ||||||
19 | sticker is a Class C
misdemeanor.

23 | vehicle operated by a contract carrier as provided in | ||||||
24 | subsection (a) of this
Section is in safe
mechanical | ||||||
25 | condition, as determined pursuant to Chapter 13, the operator | ||||||

owner of the second | ||||||
7 | division vehicle, first division vehicle including a taxi | ||||||
8 | which is used for a purpose that requires a school bus driver | ||||||
9 | permit, or medical transport vehicle or the
contract carrier | ||||||

16 | (g) If a test shows that a second division vehicle, first | ||||||
17 | division vehicle including a taxi which is used for a purpose | ||||||
18 | that requires a school bus driver permit, medical
transport
| ||||||
19 | vehicle, or vehicle operated by a contract carrier is not in | ||||||
20 | safe
mechanical condition as provided in this Section, it
| ||||||
21 | shall not be operated on the highways until it has been | ||||||
22 | repaired and
submitted to a retest at an official testing | ||||||
23 | station. If the owner or
contract carrier submits
the vehicle | ||||||
24 | to a retest at
a
different official testing station from that | ||||||
25 | where it failed to pass the
first test, he or she shall present | ||||||
26 | to the operator of the second station the
report of the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | original test, and shall notify the Department in writing,
| ||||||
2 | giving the name and address of the original testing station | ||||||

| ||||||
4 | (a) The Department with respect to highways under its | ||||||
5 | jurisdiction
and local authorities with respect to highways | ||||||
6 | under their jurisdiction
may, in their discretion, upon | ||||||
7 | application and good cause being shown
therefor, issue a | ||||||
8 | special permit authorizing the applicant to operate or
move a | ||||||
9 | vehicle or combination of vehicles of a size or weight of | ||||||
10 | vehicle or
load exceeding the maximum specified in this Code | ||||||
11 | or otherwise not in
conformity with this Code upon any highway | ||||||
12 | under the jurisdiction of the
party granting such permit and | ||||||
13 | for the maintenance of which the party is
responsible. | ||||||
14 | Applications and permits other than those in written or
| ||||||
15 | printed form may only be accepted from and issued to the | ||||||
16 | company or
individual making the movement. Except for an | ||||||
17 | application to move directly
across a highway, it shall be the | ||||||
18 | duty of the applicant to establish in the
application that the | ||||||
19 | load to be moved by such vehicle or combination cannot | ||||||
20 | reasonably be
dismantled or
disassembled, the reasonableness | ||||||
21 | of which shall be determined by the Secretary of the | ||||||
22 | Department. For the purpose of
over length movements,
more | ||||||
23 | than one object may be carried side by side as long as the | ||||||
24 | height, width,
and weight laws are not exceeded and the cause | ||||||
25 | for the over length is not due
to multiple objects. For the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | purpose of over height movements, more than one
object may be | ||||||
2 | carried as long as the cause for the over height is not due to
| ||||||
3 | multiple objects and the length, width, and weight laws are | ||||||
4 | not exceeded. For
the purpose of an over width movement, more | ||||||
5 | than one object may be carried as
long as the cause for the | ||||||
6 | over width is not due to multiple objects and length,
height, | ||||||
7 | and weight laws are not exceeded. Except for transporting | ||||||
8 | fluid milk products, no State or local agency shall
authorize | ||||||
9 | the issuance of excess size or weight permits for vehicles and | ||||||
10 | loads
that are divisible and that can be carried, when | ||||||
11 | divided, within the existing
size or weight maximums specified | ||||||
12 | in this Chapter. Any excess size or weight
permit issued in | ||||||
13 | violation of the provisions of this Section shall be void at
| ||||||
14 | issue and any movement made thereunder shall not be authorized | ||||||
15 | under the terms
of the void permit. In any prosecution for a | ||||||
16 | violation of this Chapter when
the authorization of an excess | ||||||
17 | size or weight permit is at issue, it is the
burden of the | ||||||
18 | defendant to establish that the permit was valid because the | ||||||
19 | load
to be moved could not reasonably be dismantled or | ||||||
20 | disassembled, or was
otherwise nondivisible.
| ||||||
21 | (a-1) As used in this Section, "extreme heavy duty tow and | ||||||
22 | recovery vehicle" means a tow truck manufactured as a unit | ||||||
23 | having a lifting capacity of not less than 50 tons, and having | ||||||
24 | either 4 axles and an unladen weight of not more than 80,000 | ||||||
25 | pounds or 5 axles and an unladen weight not more than 90,000 | ||||||
26 | pounds. Notwithstanding otherwise applicable gross and axle |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | weight limits, an extreme heavy duty tow and recovery vehicle | ||||||
2 | may lawfully travel to and from the scene of a disablement and | ||||||
3 | clear a disabled vehicle if the towing service has obtained an | ||||||
4 | extreme heavy duty tow and recovery permit for the vehicle. | ||||||
5 | The form and content of the permit shall be determined by the | ||||||
6 | Department with respect to highways under its jurisdiction and | ||||||
7 | by local authorities with respect to highways under their | ||||||
8 | jurisdiction. | ||||||
9 | (b) The application for any such permit shall: (1) state | ||||||
10 | whether
such permit is requested for a single trip or for | ||||||
11 | limited continuous
operation; (2) (blank); (3) specifically | ||||||
12 | describe and identify the vehicle or
vehicles and load to be | ||||||
13 | operated or moved; (4) state the
routing requested, including | ||||||
14 | the points of origin and destination, and may
identify and | ||||||
15 | include a request for routing to the nearest certified scale
| ||||||
16 | in accordance with the Department's rules and regulations, | ||||||
17 | provided the
applicant has approval to travel on local roads; | ||||||
18 | and (5) (blank).
| ||||||
19 | (c) The Department or local authority when not | ||||||
20 | inconsistent with
traffic safety is authorized to issue or | ||||||
21 | withhold such permit at its
discretion; or, if such permit is | ||||||
22 | issued at its discretion to prescribe
the route or routes to be | ||||||
23 | traveled, to limit the number of trips, to
establish seasonal | ||||||
24 | or other time limitations within which the vehicles
described | ||||||
25 | may be operated on the highways indicated, or otherwise to
| ||||||
26 | limit or prescribe conditions of operations of such vehicle or |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | vehicles,
when necessary to assure against undue damage to the | ||||||
2 | road foundations,
surfaces or structures, and may require such | ||||||
3 | undertaking or other
security as may be deemed necessary to | ||||||
4 | compensate for any injury to any
roadway or road structure. | ||||||
5 | The Department shall maintain a daily record of
each permit | ||||||
6 | issued along with the fee and the stipulated dimensions,
| ||||||
7 | weights, conditions, and restrictions authorized and this | ||||||
8 | record shall be
presumed correct in any case of questions or | ||||||
9 | dispute. The Department shall
install an automatic device for | ||||||
10 | recording telephone conversations involving permit | ||||||
11 | applications. The Department and
applicant waive all | ||||||
12 | objections to the recording of the conversation.
| ||||||
13 | (d) The Department shall, upon application in writing from | ||||||
14 | any local
authority, issue an annual permit authorizing the | ||||||
15 | local authority to
move oversize highway construction, | ||||||
16 | transportation, utility, and maintenance
equipment over roads | ||||||
17 | under the jurisdiction of the Department. The permit
shall be | ||||||
18 | applicable only to equipment and vehicles owned by or | ||||||
19 | registered
in the name of the local authority, and no fee shall | ||||||
20 | be charged for the
issuance of such permits.
| ||||||
21 | (e) As an exception to subsection (a) of this Section, the | ||||||
22 | Department
and local authorities, with respect to highways | ||||||
23 | under their respective
jurisdictions, in their discretion and | ||||||
24 | upon application in writing, may
issue a special permit for | ||||||
25 | limited continuous operation, authorizing the
applicant to | ||||||
26 | move loads of agricultural commodities on a 2-axle single
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | vehicle registered by the Secretary of State with axle loads | ||||||
2 | not to exceed
35%, on a 3-axle or 4-axle
vehicle registered by | ||||||
3 | the Secretary of State with axle loads
not to exceed 20%, and | ||||||
4 | on a 5-axle vehicle registered by the
Secretary of State not to | ||||||
5 | exceed 10% above those provided in Section 15-111. The total | ||||||
6 | gross weight of the vehicle, however,
may not exceed the | ||||||
7 | maximum gross weight of the registration class of the vehicle | ||||||
8 | allowed under Section 3-815 or 3-818 of this Code. | ||||||
9 | As used in this Section, "agricultural commodities"
means: | ||||||
10 | (1) cultivated plants or agricultural produce grown,
| ||||||
11 | including, but not limited to, corn, soybeans, wheat, | ||||||
12 | oats, grain sorghum, canola, and rice; | ||||||
13 | (2) livestock, including, but not limited to, hogs, | ||||||
14 | equine, sheep, and poultry; | ||||||
15 | (3) ensilage; and | ||||||
16 | (4) fruits and vegetables.
| ||||||
17 | Permits may be issued for a
period not to exceed 40 days | ||||||
18 | and moves may be made of a distance not to
exceed 50 miles from | ||||||
19 | a field, an on-farm grain storage facility, a warehouse as | ||||||
20 | defined in the Grain Code, or a livestock management facility | ||||||
21 | as defined in the Livestock Management Facilities Act over any
| ||||||
22 | highway except the National System of Interstate and Defense | ||||||
23 | Highways. The operator of the vehicle,
however, must abide by | ||||||
24 | posted bridge and posted highway weight limits. All implements | ||||||
25 | of husbandry operating under this Section between sunset and | ||||||
26 | sunrise shall be equipped as prescribed in Section 12-205.1.
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (e-1) A special permit shall be issued by the Department | ||||||
2 | under this Section and shall
be required from September 1 | ||||||
3 | through December 31 for a vehicle that exceeds the maximum | ||||||
4 | axle weight and gross weight limits under Section 15-111 of | ||||||
5 | this Code or exceeds the vehicle's registered gross weight, | ||||||
6 | provided that the vehicle's axle weight and gross weight do | ||||||
7 | not exceed 10% above the maximum limits under Section 15-111 | ||||||
8 | of this Code and does not exceed the vehicle's registered | ||||||
9 | gross weight by 10%. All other restrictions that apply to | ||||||
10 | permits issued under this Section shall apply during the | ||||||
11 | declared time period and no fee shall be charged for the | ||||||
12 | issuance of those permits. Permits issued by the Department | ||||||
13 | under this subsection (e-1) are only valid on federal and | ||||||
14 | State highways under the jurisdiction of the Department, | ||||||
15 | except interstate highways. With
respect to highways under the | ||||||
16 | jurisdiction of local authorities, the local
authorities may, | ||||||
17 | at their discretion, waive special permit requirements and set | ||||||
18 | a divisible load weight limit not to exceed 10% above a | ||||||
19 | vehicle's registered gross weight, provided that the vehicle's | ||||||
20 | axle weight and gross weight do not exceed 10% above the | ||||||
21 | maximum limits specified in Section 15-111. Permits issued | ||||||
22 | under this subsection (e-1) shall apply to all registered | ||||||
23 | vehicles
eligible to obtain permits under this Section, | ||||||
24 | including vehicles used in private or for-hire movement of | ||||||
25 | divisible load agricultural commodities during the declared | ||||||
26 | time period.
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (f) The form and content of the permit shall be determined | ||||||
2 | by the
Department with respect to highways under its | ||||||
3 | jurisdiction and by local
authorities with respect to highways | ||||||
4 | under their jurisdiction. Every permit
shall be in written | ||||||
5 | form and carried in the vehicle or combination of
vehicles to | ||||||
6 | which it refers and shall be open to inspection by any
police | ||||||
7 | officer or authorized agent of any authority granting the | ||||||
8 | permit
and no person shall violate any of the terms or | ||||||
9 | conditions of such
special permit. Violation of the terms and | ||||||
10 | conditions of the permit
shall not be deemed a revocation of | ||||||
11 | the permit; however, any vehicle and load
found to be off the | ||||||
12 | route prescribed in the permit shall be held to be
operating | ||||||
13 | without a permit. Any off-route vehicle and load shall be | ||||||
14 | required
to obtain a new permit or permits, as necessary, to | ||||||
15 | authorize the movement back
onto the original permit routing. | ||||||
16 | No rule or regulation, nor anything herein,
shall be construed | ||||||
17 | to authorize any police officer, court, or authorized agent
of | ||||||
18 | any authority granting the permit to remove the permit from | ||||||
19 | the possession
of the permittee unless the permittee is | ||||||
20 | charged with a fraudulent permit
violation as provided in | ||||||
21 | subsection (i). However, upon arrest for an offense of
| ||||||
22 | violation of permit, operating without a permit when the | ||||||
23 | vehicle is off route,
or any size or weight offense under this | ||||||
24 | Chapter when the permittee plans to
raise the issuance of the | ||||||
25 | permit as a defense, the permittee, or his agent,
must produce | ||||||
26 | the permit at any court hearing concerning the alleged |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | offense.
| ||||||
2 | If the permit designates and includes a routing to a | ||||||
3 | certified scale, the permittee, while en route to the | ||||||
4 | designated scale, shall be deemed in compliance
with the | ||||||
5 | weight provisions of the permit provided the axle or gross | ||||||
6 | weights
do not exceed any of the permitted limits by more than | ||||||
7 | the following amounts:
| ||||||
8 | Single axle 2000 pounds
| ||||||
9 | Tandem axle 3000 pounds
| ||||||
10 | Gross 5000 pounds
| ||||||
11 | (g) The Department is authorized to adopt, amend, and make
| ||||||
12 | available to interested persons a policy concerning reasonable | ||||||
13 | rules,
limitations and conditions or provisions of operation | ||||||
14 | upon highways
under its jurisdiction in addition to those | ||||||
15 | contained in this Section
for the movement by special permit | ||||||
16 | of vehicles, combinations, or loads
which cannot reasonably be | ||||||
17 | dismantled or disassembled, including
manufactured and modular | ||||||
18 | home sections and portions thereof. All rules,
limitations and | ||||||
19 | conditions or provisions adopted in the policy shall
have due | ||||||
20 | regard for the safety of the traveling public and the | ||||||
21 | protection
of the highway system and shall have been | ||||||
22 | promulgated in conformity with
the provisions of the Illinois | ||||||
23 | Administrative Procedure Act. The
requirements of the policy | ||||||
24 | for flagmen and escort vehicles shall be the
same for all moves | ||||||
25 | of comparable size and weight. When escort vehicles are
| ||||||
26 | required, they shall meet the following requirements:
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (1) All operators shall be 18 years of age or over and | ||||||
2 | properly
licensed to operate the vehicle.
| ||||||
3 | (2) Vehicles escorting oversized loads more than 12 | ||||||
4 | feet wide must
be equipped with a rotating or flashing | ||||||
5 | amber light mounted on top as specified
under Section | ||||||
6 | 12-215.
| ||||||
7 | The Department shall establish reasonable rules and | ||||||
8 | regulations
regarding liability insurance or self insurance | ||||||
9 | for vehicles with
oversized loads promulgated under the | ||||||
10 | Illinois Administrative Procedure
Act. Police vehicles may be | ||||||
11 | required for escort under circumstances as
required by rules | ||||||
12 | and regulations of the Department.
| ||||||
13 | (h) Violation of any rule, limitation or condition or | ||||||
14 | provision of
any permit issued in accordance with the | ||||||
15 | provisions of this Section
shall not render the entire permit | ||||||
16 | null and void but the violator shall
be deemed guilty of | ||||||
17 | violation of permit and guilty of exceeding any size,
weight, | ||||||
18 | or load limitations in excess of those authorized by the | ||||||
19 | permit.
The prescribed route or routes on the permit are not | ||||||
20 | mere rules, limitations,
conditions, or provisions of the | ||||||
21 | permit, but are also the sole extent of the
authorization | ||||||
22 | granted by the permit. If a vehicle and load are found to be
| ||||||
23 | off the route or routes prescribed by any permit authorizing | ||||||
24 | movement,
the vehicle and load are operating without a permit. | ||||||
25 | Any off-route movement
shall be subject to the size and weight | ||||||
26 | maximums, under the applicable
provisions of this Chapter, as |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | determined by the type or class highway upon
which the vehicle | ||||||
2 | and load are being operated.
| ||||||
3 | (i) Whenever any vehicle is operated or movement made | ||||||
4 | under a
fraudulent permit, the permit shall be void, and the | ||||||
5 | person, firm, or
corporation to whom such permit was granted, | ||||||
6 | the driver of such vehicle
in addition to the person who issued | ||||||
7 | such permit and any accessory,
shall be guilty of fraud and | ||||||
8 | either one or all persons may be prosecuted
for such | ||||||
9 | violation. Any person, firm, or corporation committing such
| ||||||
10 | violation shall be guilty of a Class 4 felony and the | ||||||
11 | Department shall
not issue permits to the person, firm, or | ||||||
12 | corporation convicted of such
violation for a period of one | ||||||
13 | year after the date of conviction.
Penalties for violations of | ||||||
14 | this Section shall be in addition to any
penalties imposed for | ||||||
15 | violation of other Sections of this Code.
| ||||||
16 | (j) Whenever any vehicle is operated or movement made in | ||||||
17 | violation
of a permit issued in accordance with this Section, | ||||||
18 | the person to whom
such permit was granted, or the driver of | ||||||
19 | such vehicle, is guilty of
such violation and either, but not | ||||||
20 | both, persons may be prosecuted for
such violation as stated | ||||||
21 | in this subsection (j). Any person, firm, or
corporation | ||||||
22 | convicted of such violation shall be guilty of a petty
offense | ||||||
23 | and shall be fined, for the first offense, not less than $50 | ||||||
24 | nor
more than $200 and, for the second offense by the same | ||||||
25 | person, firm, or
corporation within a period of one year, not | ||||||
26 | less than $200 nor more
than $300 and, for the third offense by |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | the same person, firm, or
corporation within a period of one | ||||||
2 | year after the date of the first
offense, not less than $300 | ||||||
3 | nor more than $500 and the Department may, in its discretion, | ||||||
4 | not issue permits to the person, firm, or corporation | ||||||
5 | convicted of a
third offense during a period of one year after | ||||||
6 | the date of conviction or supervision
for such third offense. | ||||||
7 | If any violation is the cause or contributing cause in a motor | ||||||
8 | vehicle crash accident causing damage to property, injury, or | ||||||
9 | death to a person, the Department may, in its discretion, not | ||||||
10 | issue a permit to the person, firm, or corporation for a period | ||||||
11 | of one year after the date of conviction or supervision for the | ||||||
12 | offense.
| ||||||
13 | (k) Whenever any vehicle is operated on local roads under | ||||||
14 | permits
for excess width or length issued by local | ||||||
15 | authorities, such vehicle may
be moved upon a State highway | ||||||
16 | for a distance not to exceed one-half mile
without a permit for | ||||||
17 | the purpose of crossing the State highway.
| ||||||
18 | (l) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, | ||||||
19 | the Department,
with respect to highways under its | ||||||
20 | jurisdiction, and local authorities, with
respect to highways | ||||||
21 | under their jurisdiction, may at their discretion authorize
| ||||||
22 | the movement of a vehicle in violation of any size or weight | ||||||
23 | requirement, or
both, that would not ordinarily be eligible | ||||||
24 | for a permit, when there is a
showing of extreme necessity that | ||||||
25 | the vehicle and load should be moved without
unnecessary | ||||||
26 | delay.
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | For the purpose of this subsection, showing of extreme | ||||||
2 | necessity shall be
limited to the following: shipments of | ||||||
3 | livestock, hazardous materials, liquid
concrete being hauled | ||||||
4 | in a mobile cement mixer, or hot asphalt.
| ||||||
5 | (m) Penalties for violations of this Section shall be in | ||||||
6 | addition to any
penalties imposed for violating any other | ||||||
7 | Section of this Code.
| ||||||
8 | (n) The Department with respect to highways under its | ||||||
9 | jurisdiction and
local
authorities with respect to highways | ||||||
10 | under their jurisdiction, in their
discretion and upon
| ||||||
11 | application in writing, may issue a special permit for | ||||||
12 | continuous limited
operation,
authorizing the applicant to | ||||||
13 | operate a tow truck that exceeds the weight limits
provided
| ||||||

17 | (2) no rear tandem axle of the tow truck exceeds | ||||||
18 | 50,000 pounds;
| ||||||
19 | (2.1) no triple rear axle on a manufactured recovery | ||||||

pounds; | ||||||
21 | (3) neither the disabled vehicle nor the disabled | ||||||
22 | combination of vehicles
exceed the
weight restrictions | ||||||
23 | imposed by this Chapter 15, or the weight limits imposed
| ||||||
24 | under a
permit issued by the Department prior to hookup;
| ||||||
25 | (4) the tow truck prior to hookup does not exceed the | ||||||
26 | weight restrictions
imposed
by this Chapter 15;
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (5) during the tow operation the tow truck does not | ||||||
2 | violate any weight
restriction
sign;
| ||||||
3 | (6) the tow truck is equipped with flashing, rotating, | ||||||
4 | or oscillating
amber

visible for at least 500 feet | ||||||
5 | in all directions;
| ||||||
6 | (7) the tow truck is specifically designed and | ||||||
7 | licensed as a tow truck;
| ||||||
8 | (8) the tow truck has a gross vehicle weight rating of | ||||||
9 | sufficient
capacity to safely
handle the load;
| ||||||
10 | (9) the tow truck is equipped with air brakes;

disabled vehicle or | ||||||
13 | combination of vehicles;
| ||||||
14 | (11) the tow commences at the initial point of wreck | ||||||
15 | or disablement and terminates at a point where the repairs | ||||||

| ||||||
17 | (12) the permit issued to the tow truck is carried in | ||||||
18 | the tow truck

| ||||||
22 | (o) (Blank).
| ||||||
23 | (p) In determining whether a load may be reasonably | ||||||
24 | dismantled or disassembled for the purpose of subsection (a), | ||||||
25 | the Department shall consider whether there is a significant | ||||||
26 | negative impact on the condition of the pavement and |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | structures along the proposed route, whether the load or | ||||||
2 | vehicle as proposed causes a safety hazard to the traveling | ||||||

4 | or stifles economic development, and whether the proposed | ||||||
5 | route travels less than 5 miles. A load is not required to be | ||||||

10 | safety hazard to the traveling public, dismantling or | ||||||
11 | disassembling the load does not promote economic development, | ||||||

The | ||||||
13 | Department may promulgate rules for the purpose of | ||||||
14 | establishing the divisibility of a load pursuant to subsection | ||||||
15 | (a). Any load determined by the Secretary to be nondivisible | ||||||
16 | shall otherwise comply with the existing size or weight | ||||||
17 | maximums specified in this Chapter. | ||||||

| ||||||
7 | Sec. 18c-6502. Report and Investigation of Crashes | ||||||
8 | Accidents . (1) Reports.
Every motor carrier of passengers | ||||||
9 | shall report to the
Commission, by the speediest means | ||||||
10 | possible, whether telephone,
telegraph, or otherwise, every | ||||||
11 | crash accident involving its
equipment which resulted in loss | ||||||
12 | of life to any person. In
addition to reports required to be | ||||||
13 | filed with the Department of
Transportation, under Article IV | ||||||
14 | of Chapter 11 and Chapter 7 of this
Code, such carrier shall | ||||||
15 | file a written report with the
Commission, in accordance with | ||||||
16 | regulations adopted hereunder,
of any crash accident which | ||||||
17 | results in injury or loss of life to
any employee, or damage to | ||||||
18 | the person or property of any
member of the public. The | ||||||
19 | Commission and the Department of
Transportation may adopt, by
| ||||||
20 | reference, such state or federal reporting requirements as
| ||||||
21 | will effectuate the purposes of this Section and promote
| ||||||
22 | uniformity in bus crash accident reporting.
| ||||||
23 | (2) Investigations.
The Commission and the Department of | ||||||
24 | Transportation may investigate any
bus crash accident reported | ||||||
25 | to
it or of which it acquires knowledge independent of reports
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | made by motor carriers of passengers, and shall have the
power | ||||||
2 | to enter such orders and adopt such regulations as will
| ||||||
3 | minimize the risk of future crashes accidents .

6 | Sec. 18c-7402. Safety requirements for railroad | ||||||
7 | operations.
| ||||||
8 | (1) Obstruction of crossings.
| ||||||
9 | (a) Obstruction of emergency vehicles.
Every railroad | ||||||
10 | shall be operated in such a manner as to
minimize | ||||||
11 | obstruction of emergency vehicles at crossings.
Where such | ||||||
12 | obstruction occurs and the train crew is
aware of the | ||||||
13 | obstruction, the train crew shall
immediately take any | ||||||
14 | action, consistent with safe
operating procedure, | ||||||
15 | necessary to remove the
obstruction. In the Chicago and | ||||||
16 | St. Louis switching
districts, every railroad dispatcher | ||||||
17 | or other person
responsible for the movement of railroad | ||||||
18 | equipment in a
specific area who receives notification | ||||||
19 | that railroad
equipment is obstructing the movement of an | ||||||
20 | emergency
vehicle at any crossing within such area shall
| ||||||
21 | immediately notify the train crew through use of
existing | ||||||
22 | communication facilities. Upon notification,
the train | ||||||
23 | crew shall take immediate action in accordance
with this | ||||||
24 | paragraph.
| ||||||
25 | (b) Obstruction of highway at grade crossing |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | prohibited.
It is unlawful for a rail carrier to permit | ||||||
2 | any train,
railroad car or engine to obstruct public | ||||||
3 | travel at a
railroad-highway grade crossing for a period | ||||||
4 | in excess
of 10 minutes, except where such train or | ||||||
5 | railroad car
is continuously moving or cannot be moved by | ||||||
6 | reason of
circumstances over which the rail carrier has no
| ||||||
7 | reasonable control.
| ||||||
8 | In a county with a population of greater than | ||||||
9 | 1,000,000, as determined by
the most recent federal | ||||||
10 | census, during the
hours of 7:00 a.m. through 9:00 a.m. | ||||||
11 | and 4:00 p.m. through 6:00 p.m. it is
unlawful for a rail | ||||||
12 | carrier to permit any single train or railroad car to
| ||||||
13 | obstruct
public travel at a railroad-highway grade | ||||||
14 | crossing in excess of a total of 10
minutes during a 30 | ||||||
15 | minute period, except where the train or railroad
car
| ||||||
16 | cannot be moved by reason or circumstances over which the | ||||||
17 | rail carrier has no
reasonable control. Under no | ||||||
18 | circumstances will a moving train be stopped for
the | ||||||
19 | purposes of
issuing a citation related to this Section.
| ||||||
20 | However, no employee acting under the rules or orders | ||||||
21 | of the rail carrier or
its supervisory personnel may be | ||||||
22 | prosecuted for a violation of this
subsection (b).
| ||||||
23 | (c) Punishment for obstruction of grade crossing.
Any | ||||||
24 | rail carrier violating paragraph (b) of this
subsection | ||||||
25 | shall be guilty of a petty offense and fined
not less than | ||||||
26 | $200 nor more than $500 if the duration of
the obstruction |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | is in excess of 10 minutes but no longer
than 15 minutes. | ||||||
2 | If the duration of the obstruction
exceeds 15 minutes the | ||||||
3 | violation shall be a business
offense and the following | ||||||
4 | fines shall be imposed: if
the duration of the obstruction | ||||||
5 | is in excess of 15
minutes but no longer than 20 minutes, | ||||||
6 | the fine shall be
$500; if the duration of the obstruction | ||||||
7 | is in excess of
20 minutes but no longer than 25 minutes, | ||||||
8 | the fine shall
be $700; if the duration of the obstruction | ||||||
9 | is in excess
of 25 minutes, but no longer than 30 minutes, | ||||||
10 | the fine
shall be $900; if the duration of the obstruction | ||||||
11 | is in
excess of 30 minutes but no longer than 35 minutes, | ||||||
12 | the
fine shall be $1,000; if the duration of the | ||||||
13 | obstruction
is in excess of 35 minutes, the fine shall be | ||||||
14 | $1,000
plus an additional $500 for each 5 minutes of
| ||||||
15 | obstruction in excess of 25 minutes of obstruction.
| ||||||
16 | (2) Other operational requirements.
| ||||||
17 | (a) Bell and whistle-crossings.
Every rail carrier | ||||||
18 | shall cause a bell, and a whistle or
horn to be placed and | ||||||
19 | kept on each locomotive, and shall
cause the same to be | ||||||
20 | rung or sounded by the engineer or
fireman, at the | ||||||
21 | distance of at least 1,320 feet, from the
place where the | ||||||
22 | railroad crosses or intersects any
public highway, and | ||||||
23 | shall be kept ringing or sounding
until the highway is | ||||||
24 | reached; provided that at crossings
where the Commission | ||||||
25 | shall by order direct, only after a hearing has been
held | ||||||
26 | to determine the public is reasonably and sufficiently |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | protected, the rail
carrier may be excused from giving | ||||||
2 | warning provided by
this paragraph.
| ||||||
3 | (a-5) The requirements of paragraph (a) of this
| ||||||
4 | subsection (2) regarding ringing a bell and sounding a
| ||||||
5 | whistle or horn do not apply at a railroad crossing that
| ||||||
6 | has a permanently installed automated audible warning
| ||||||
7 | device authorized by the Commission under Section
| ||||||
8 | 18c-7402.1 that sounds automatically when an approaching
| ||||||
9 | train is at least 1,320 feet from the crossing and that
| ||||||
10 | keeps sounding until the lead locomotive has crossed the
| ||||||
11 | highway. The engineer or fireman may ring the bell or
| ||||||
12 | sound the whistle or horn at a railroad crossing that has a
| ||||||
13 | permanently installed audible warning device.
| ||||||
14 | (b) Speed limits.
Each rail carrier shall operate its | ||||||
15 | trains in compliance
with speed limits set by the | ||||||
16 | Commission. The Commission
may set train speed limits only | ||||||
17 | where such limits are
necessitated by extraordinary | ||||||
18 | circumstances affecting
the public safety, and shall | ||||||
19 | maintain such train speed
limits in effect only for such | ||||||
20 | time as the extraordinary
circumstances prevail.
| ||||||
21 | The Commission and the Department of Transportation | ||||||
22 | shall conduct a study
of the relation between train speeds | ||||||
23 | and railroad-highway grade crossing
safety. The Commission | ||||||
24 | shall report the findings of the study to the General
| ||||||
25 | Assembly no later than January 5, 1997.
| ||||||
26 | (c) Special speed limit; pilot project. The Commission |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | and the
Board of the Commuter Rail Division of the | ||||||
2 | Regional Transportation Authority
shall conduct a pilot | ||||||
3 | project in the Village of
Fox River Grove, the site of the
| ||||||
4 | fatal school bus crash accident at a railroad crossing
on | ||||||
5 | October 25, 1995, in order to improve railroad crossing | ||||||
6 | safety. For this
project, the Commission is directed to | ||||||
7 | set the maximum train speed limit for
Regional | ||||||
8 | Transportation Authority trains at 50 miles per hour at | ||||||
9 | intersections
on
that portion of
the intrastate rail line | ||||||
10 | located in the Village of Fox River Grove.
If the Regional | ||||||
11 | Transportation Authority deliberately fails to comply with | ||||||
12 | this
maximum speed
limit, then any entity, governmental or | ||||||
13 | otherwise, that provides capital or
operational funds to | ||||||
14 | the Regional Transportation
Authority shall appropriately | ||||||
15 | reduce or eliminate that funding.
The Commission shall | ||||||
16 | report
to the Governor and the General Assembly on the | ||||||
17 | results of this pilot
project in January
1999, January | ||||||
18 | 2000, and January 2001. The Commission shall also submit a | ||||||
19 | final
report on the pilot project to the Governor and the | ||||||
20 | General Assembly in January
2001. The provisions of this
| ||||||
21 | subsection (c), other than this sentence, are inoperative | ||||||
22 | after February 1,
2001.
| ||||||
23 | (d) Freight train crew size. No rail carrier shall | ||||||
24 | operate or cause to operate a train or light engine used in | ||||||
25 | connection with the movement of freight unless it has an | ||||||
26 | operating crew consisting of at least 2 individuals. The |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | minimum freight train crew size indicated in this | ||||||
2 | subsection (d) shall remain in effect until a federal law | ||||||
3 | or rule encompassing the subject matter has been adopted. | ||||||
4 | The Commission, with respect to freight train crew member | ||||||
5 | size under this subsection (d), has the power to conduct | ||||||
6 | evidentiary hearings, make findings, and issue and enforce | ||||||
7 | orders, including sanctions under Section 18c-1704 of this | ||||||
8 | Chapter. As used in this subsection (d), "train or light | ||||||
9 | engine" does not include trains operated by a hostler | ||||||
10 | service or utility employees. | ||||||
11 | (3) Report and investigation of rail accidents.
| ||||||
12 | (a) Reports.
Every rail carrier shall report to the | ||||||
13 | Commission, by
the speediest means possible, whether | ||||||
14 | telephone,
telegraph, or otherwise, every accident | ||||||
15 | involving its
equipment, track, or other property which | ||||||
16 | resulted in
loss of life to any person. In addition, such | ||||||
17 | carriers
shall file a written report with the Commission.
| ||||||
18 | Reports submitted under this paragraph shall be strictly
| ||||||
19 | confidential, shall be specifically prohibited from
| ||||||
20 | disclosure, and shall not be admissible in any
| ||||||
21 | administrative or judicial proceeding relating to the
| ||||||
22 | accidents reported.
| ||||||
23 | (b) Investigations.
The Commission may investigate all | ||||||
24 | railroad accidents
reported to it or of which it acquires | ||||||
25 | knowledge
independent of reports made by rail carriers, | ||||||
26 | and shall
have the power, consistent with standards and
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | procedures established under the Federal Railroad Safety | ||||||
2 | Act, as amended, to
enter such
temporary orders as will | ||||||
3 | minimize the risk of future accidents pending notice,
| ||||||
4 | hearing, and final action by the Commission.

| |||||||
1 | (625 ILCS 25/2) (from Ch. 95 1/2, par. 1102)
| ||||||
2 | Sec. 2. Legislative Finding - Purpose. The General | ||||||
3 | Assembly finds that
a substantial number of passengers under | ||||||
4 | the age of 8 years riding in
motor
vehicles, which are most | ||||||
5 | frequently operated by a parent, annually die or
sustain | ||||||
6 | serious physical injury as a direct result of not being placed | ||||||
7 | in
an appropriate child passenger restraint system.
Motor | ||||||
8 | vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death for children
of | ||||||
9 | every age from 4 to 14 years old.
The General Assembly further | ||||||
10 | finds that
the safety of the motoring public is seriously | ||||||
11 | threatened as indicated by
the significant number of traffic | ||||||
12 | crashes accidents annually caused, directly or
indirectly, by | ||||||
13 | driver distraction or other impairment of driving ability
| ||||||
14 | induced by the movement or actions of unrestrained passengers | ||||||
15 | under the age of
8 years.
| ||||||
16 | It is the purpose of this Act to further protect the | ||||||
17 | health, safety and
welfare of motor vehicle passengers under | ||||||
18 | the age of 8 years and the
motoring
public through the proper | ||||||
19 | utilization of approved child restraint systems.

22 | Protection Act is amended by changing Section 5 as follows:
| ||||||
23 | (625 ILCS 27/5)
| ||||||
24 | Sec. 5. Legislative findings. The General Assembly finds |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | and declares
the
following:
| ||||||
2 | (a) Amendments enacted in 1988 which limit negligent | ||||||
3 | drivers' liability
for damage to vehicles rented from motor | ||||||
4 | vehicle rental companies to $200 have
had the unintended, | ||||||
5 | anti-consumer effect of unfairly transferring most of the
| ||||||
6 | costs of liability for renters' negligence to car rental | ||||||
7 | companies.
| ||||||
8 | (b) This transfer of liability from negligent renters has | ||||||
9 | forced
Illinois rental companies and dealers to experience | ||||||
10 | significant financial
losses in the form of actual costs to | ||||||
11 | repair, service, and replace vehicles and
loss of economic | ||||||
12 | opportunity by being deprived of the rental use of damaged or
| ||||||
13 | destroyed rental cars; as a result, many Illinois vehicle | ||||||
14 | rental companies in
Illinois have been forced to close because | ||||||
15 | of the current amendments, and high
risk to capital threatens | ||||||
16 | to close existing companies; economic losses
have also | ||||||
17 | resulted in Illinois renters paying daily and weekly vehicle | ||||||
18 | rental
rates almost two-fold higher than renters in other | ||||||
19 | states, including those
states surrounding Illinois.
| ||||||
20 | (c) As the vast majority of renters in Illinois are | ||||||
21 | non-Illinois
residents, the increased damage costs of rental | ||||||
22 | car companies and dealers are
absorbed and paid by all | ||||||
23 | Illinois consumers and business.
| ||||||
24 | (d) The current law also threatens the public safety of | ||||||
25 | all Illinois
citizens as it has contributed to an almost | ||||||
26 | three-fold increase in driver crash
accident and fatality |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | rates in Illinois.

4 | amended by changing Section 10 as follows: | ||||||
5 | (625 ILCS 57/10) | ||||||
6 | (Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2023)
| ||||||
7 | Sec. 10. Insurance. | ||||||
8 | (a) Transportation network companies and participating TNC | ||||||
9 | drivers shall comply with the automobile liability insurance | ||||||
10 | requirements of this Section as required. | ||||||
11 | (b) The following automobile liability insurance | ||||||
12 | requirements shall apply from the moment a participating TNC | ||||||
13 | driver logs on to the transportation network company's digital | ||||||
14 | network or software application until the TNC driver accepts a | ||||||
15 | request to transport a passenger, and from the moment the TNC | ||||||
16 | driver completes the transaction on the digital network or | ||||||
17 | software application or the ride is complete, whichever is | ||||||
18 | later, until the TNC driver either accepts another ride | ||||||
19 | request on the digital network or software application or logs | ||||||
20 | off the digital network or software application: | ||||||
21 | (1) Automobile liability insurance shall be in the | ||||||
22 | amount of at least $50,000 for death and personal injury | ||||||
23 | per person, $100,000 for death and personal injury per | ||||||
24 | incident, and $25,000 for property damage. |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (2) Contingent automobile liability insurance in the | ||||||
2 | amounts required in paragraph (1) of this subsection (b) | ||||||
3 | shall be maintained by a transportation network company | ||||||
4 | and provide coverage in the event a participating TNC | ||||||
5 | driver's own automobile liability policy excludes coverage | ||||||
6 | according to its policy terms or does not provide at least | ||||||
7 | the limits of coverage required in paragraph (1) of this | ||||||
8 | subsection (b). | ||||||
9 | (c) The following automobile liability insurance | ||||||
10 | requirements shall apply from the moment a TNC driver accepts | ||||||
11 | a ride request on the transportation network company's digital | ||||||
12 | network or software application until the TNC driver completes | ||||||
13 | the transaction on the digital network or software application | ||||||
14 | or until the ride is complete, whichever is later:
| ||||||
15 | (1) Automobile liability insurance shall be primary | ||||||
16 | and in the amount of $1,000,000 for death, personal | ||||||
17 | injury, and property damage. The requirements for the | ||||||
18 | coverage required by this paragraph (1) may be satisfied | ||||||
19 | by any of the following:
| ||||||
20 | (A) automobile liability insurance maintained by a | ||||||
21 | participating TNC driver;
| ||||||
22 | (B) automobile liability company insurance | ||||||
23 | maintained by a transportation network company; or
| ||||||
24 | (C) any combination of subparagraphs (A) and (B).
| ||||||
25 | (2) Insurance coverage provided under this subsection | ||||||
26 | (c) shall also provide for uninsured motorist coverage and |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | underinsured motorist coverage in the amount of $50,000 | ||||||
2 | from the moment a passenger enters the vehicle of a | ||||||
3 | participating TNC driver until the passenger exits the | ||||||
4 | vehicle.
| ||||||
5 | (3) The insurer, in the case of insurance coverage | ||||||
6 | provided under this subsection (c), shall have the duty to | ||||||
7 | defend and indemnify the insured.
| ||||||
8 | (4) Coverage under an automobile liability insurance | ||||||
9 | policy required under this subsection (c) shall not be | ||||||
10 | dependent on a personal automobile insurance policy first | ||||||
11 | denying a claim nor shall a personal automobile insurance | ||||||
12 | policy be required to first deny a claim. | ||||||
13 | (d) In every instance when automobile liability insurance | ||||||
14 | maintained by a participating TNC driver to fulfill the | ||||||
15 | insurance obligations of this Section has lapsed or ceased to | ||||||
16 | exist, the transportation network company shall provide the | ||||||
17 | coverage required by this Section beginning with the first | ||||||
18 | dollar of a claim. | ||||||
19 | (e) This Section shall not limit the liability of a | ||||||
20 | transportation network company arising out of an automobile | ||||||
21 | crash accident involving a participating TNC driver in any | ||||||
22 | action for damages against a transportation network company | ||||||
23 | for an amount above the required insurance coverage. | ||||||
24 | (f) The transportation network company shall disclose in | ||||||
25 | writing to TNC drivers, as part of its agreement with those TNC | ||||||
26 | drivers, the following:
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (1) the insurance coverage and limits of liability | ||||||
2 | that the transportation network company provides while the | ||||||
3 | TNC driver uses a vehicle in connection with a | ||||||
4 | transportation network company's digital network or | ||||||
5 | software application; and
| ||||||
6 | (2) that the TNC driver's own insurance policy may not | ||||||
7 | provide coverage while the TNC driver uses a vehicle in | ||||||
8 | connection with a transportation network company digital | ||||||
9 | network depending on its terms. | ||||||
10 | (g) An insurance policy required by this Section may be | ||||||
11 | placed with an admitted Illinois insurer, or with an | ||||||
12 | authorized surplus line insurer under Section 445 of the | ||||||
13 | Illinois Insurance Code; and is not subject to any restriction | ||||||
14 | or limitation on the issuance of a policy contained in Section | ||||||
15 | 445a of the Illinois Insurance Code. | ||||||
16 | (h) Any insurance policy required by this Section shall | ||||||
17 | satisfy the financial responsibility requirement for a motor | ||||||
18 | vehicle under Sections 7-203 and 7-601 of the Illinois Vehicle | ||||||
19 | Code.
| ||||||
20 | (i) If a transportation network company's insurer makes a | ||||||
21 | payment for a claim covered under comprehensive coverage or | ||||||
22 | collision coverage, the transportation network company shall | ||||||
23 | cause its insurer to issue the payment directly to the | ||||||
24 | business repairing the vehicle, or jointly to the owner of the | ||||||
25 | vehicle and the primary lienholder on the covered vehicle. | ||||||

15 | of the Illinois Vehicle Code (625 ILCS 5/11-401) and | ||||||
16 | either: (A) aggravated driving under the influence of | ||||||
17 | alcohol, other drug or drugs, or intoxicating compound or | ||||||
18 | compounds, or any combination thereof under Section 11-501 | ||||||
19 | of the Illinois Vehicle Code (625 ILCS 5/11-501), (B) | ||||||
20 | reckless homicide under Section 9-3 of the Criminal Code | ||||||
21 | of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012 (720 ILCS 5/9-3), or | ||||||
22 | (C) both an offense described in item (A) and an offense | ||||||
23 | described in item (B). | ||||||
24 | (5) The defendant was convicted of a violation of | ||||||
25 | Section 9-3.1 or Section 9-3.4 (concealment of homicidal | ||||||
26 | death) or Section 12-20.5 (dismembering a human body) of |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | the Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012 (720 | ||||||
2 | ILCS 5/9-3.1 or 5/12-20.5). | ||||||

4 | Section 24-3.7 (use of a stolen firearm in the commission | ||||||
5 | of an offense) of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal | ||||||

7 | (6) If the defendant was in the custody of the | ||||||
8 | Department of Corrections at the
time of the commission of | ||||||
9 | the offense, the sentence shall be served consecutive to | ||||||
10 | the sentence under which the defendant is held by the | ||||||
11 | Department of Corrections. If, however, the defendant is | ||||||
12 | sentenced to punishment by death, the sentence shall be | ||||||
13 | executed at such time as the court may fix without regard | ||||||
14 | to the sentence under which the defendant may be held by | ||||||
15 | the Department. | ||||||
16 | (7) A sentence under Section 3-6-4 (730 ILCS 5/3-6-4) | ||||||
17 | for escape or attempted escape shall be served
consecutive | ||||||
18 | to the terms under which the offender is held by the | ||||||
19 | Department of Corrections. | ||||||
20 | (8) If a person charged with a felony commits a | ||||||
21 | separate felony while on pretrial
release or in pretrial | ||||||
22 | detention in a county jail facility or county detention | ||||||
23 | facility, then the sentences imposed upon conviction of | ||||||
24 | these felonies shall be served consecutively regardless of | ||||||
25 | the order in which the judgments of conviction are | ||||||
26 | entered. |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (8.5) If a person commits a battery against a county | ||||||
2 | correctional officer or sheriff's employee while serving a | ||||||
3 | sentence or in pretrial detention in a county jail | ||||||
4 | facility, then the sentence imposed upon conviction of the | ||||||
5 | battery shall be served consecutively with the sentence | ||||||
6 | imposed upon conviction of the earlier misdemeanor or | ||||||
7 | felony, regardless of the order in which the
judgments of | ||||||
8 | conviction are entered. | ||||||
9 | (9) If a person admitted to bail following conviction | ||||||
10 | of a felony commits a
separate felony while free on bond or | ||||||
11 | if a person detained in a county jail facility or county | ||||||
12 | detention facility following conviction of a felony | ||||||
13 | commits a separate felony while in detention, then any | ||||||
14 | sentence following conviction of the separate felony shall | ||||||
15 | be consecutive to that of the original sentence for which | ||||||
16 | the defendant was on bond or detained.
| ||||||
17 | (10) If a person is found to be in possession of an | ||||||
18 | item of contraband, as defined in Section 31A-0.1 of the | ||||||
19 | Criminal Code of 2012, while serving a sentence in a | ||||||
20 | county jail or while in pre-trial detention in a county | ||||||
21 | jail, the sentence imposed upon conviction for the offense | ||||||
22 | of possessing contraband in a penal institution shall be | ||||||
23 | served consecutively to the sentence imposed for the | ||||||
24 | offense in which the person is serving sentence in the | ||||||
25 | county jail or serving pretrial detention, regardless of | ||||||
26 | the order in which the judgments of conviction are |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | entered. | ||||||
2 | (11) If a person is sentenced for a violation of bail | ||||||
3 | bond under Section 32-10 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or | ||||||
4 | the Criminal Code of 2012, any sentence imposed for that | ||||||
5 | violation shall be served
consecutive to the sentence | ||||||
6 | imposed for the charge for which bail had been
granted and | ||||||
7 | with respect to which the defendant has been convicted. | ||||||
8 | (e) Consecutive terms; subsequent non-Illinois term. If an | ||||||
9 | Illinois court has imposed a
sentence of imprisonment on a | ||||||
10 | defendant and the defendant is subsequently sentenced to a | ||||||
11 | term of imprisonment by a court of another state or a federal | ||||||
12 | court, then the Illinois sentence shall run consecutively to | ||||||
13 | the sentence imposed by the court of the other state or the | ||||||
14 | federal court. That same Illinois court, however, may order | ||||||
15 | that the Illinois sentence run concurrently with the sentence | ||||||
16 | imposed by the court of the other state or the federal court, | ||||||
17 | but only if the defendant applies to that same Illinois court | ||||||
18 | within 30 days after the sentence imposed by the court of the | ||||||
19 | other state or the federal court is finalized. | ||||||
20 | (f) Consecutive terms; aggregate maximums and minimums. | ||||||
21 | The aggregate maximum
and aggregate minimum of consecutive | ||||||
22 | sentences shall be determined as follows: | ||||||
23 | (1) For sentences imposed under law in effect prior to | ||||||
24 | February 1, 1978, the
aggregate maximum of consecutive | ||||||
25 | sentences shall not exceed the maximum term authorized | ||||||
26 | under Section 5-8-1 (730 ILCS 5/5-8-1) or Article 4.5 of |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | Chapter V for the 2 most serious felonies involved. The | ||||||
2 | aggregate minimum period of consecutive sentences shall | ||||||
3 | not exceed the highest minimum term authorized under | ||||||
4 | Section 5-8-1 (730 ILCS 5/5-8-1) or Article 4.5 of Chapter | ||||||
5 | V for the 2 most serious felonies involved. When sentenced | ||||||
6 | only for misdemeanors, a defendant shall not be | ||||||
7 | consecutively sentenced to more than the maximum for one | ||||||
8 | Class A misdemeanor. | ||||||
9 | (2) For sentences imposed under the law in effect on | ||||||
10 | or after February 1, 1978,
the aggregate of consecutive | ||||||
11 | sentences for offenses that were committed as part of a | ||||||
12 | single
course of conduct during which there was no | ||||||
13 | substantial change in the nature of the criminal objective | ||||||
14 | shall not exceed the sum of the maximum terms authorized | ||||||
15 | under Article 4.5 of Chapter V for the 2 most serious | ||||||
16 | felonies involved, but no such limitation shall apply for | ||||||
17 | offenses that were not committed as part of a single | ||||||
18 | course of conduct during which there was no substantial | ||||||
19 | change in the nature of the criminal objective. When | ||||||
20 | sentenced only for misdemeanors, a defendant shall not be | ||||||
21 | consecutively sentenced to more than the maximum for one | ||||||
22 | Class A misdemeanor.
| ||||||
23 | (g) Consecutive terms; manner served. In determining the | ||||||
24 | manner in which consecutive sentences of imprisonment, one or | ||||||
25 | more of which is for a felony, will be served, the Department | ||||||
26 | of Corrections shall treat the defendant as though he or she |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | had been committed for a single term subject to each of the | ||||||
2 | following: | ||||||
3 | (1) The maximum period of a term of imprisonment shall | ||||||
4 | consist of the aggregate
of the maximums of the imposed | ||||||
5 | indeterminate terms, if any, plus the aggregate of the | ||||||
6 | imposed determinate sentences for felonies, plus the | ||||||
7 | aggregate of the imposed determinate sentences for | ||||||
8 | misdemeanors, subject to subsection (f) of this Section. | ||||||
9 | (2) The parole or mandatory supervised release term | ||||||
10 | shall be as provided in
paragraph (e) of Section 5-4.5-50 | ||||||
11 | (730 ILCS 5/5-4.5-50) for the most serious of the offenses | ||||||
12 | involved. | ||||||
13 | (3) The minimum period of imprisonment shall be the | ||||||
14 | aggregate of the minimum
and determinate periods of | ||||||
15 | imprisonment imposed by the court, subject to subsection | ||||||
16 | (f) of this Section. | ||||||
17 | (4) The defendant shall be awarded credit against the | ||||||
18 | aggregate maximum term
and the aggregate minimum term of | ||||||
19 | imprisonment for all time served in an institution since | ||||||
20 | the commission of the offense or offenses and as a | ||||||
21 | consequence thereof at the rate specified in
Section 3-6-3 | ||||||
22 | (730 ILCS 5/3-6-3).
| ||||||
23 | (h) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section, | ||||||
24 | all sentences imposed by an Illinois court under this Code | ||||||
25 | shall run concurrent to any and all sentences imposed under | ||||||
26 | the Juvenile Court Act of 1987.

2 | Section 145. The Cannabis and Controlled Substances Tort | ||||||
3 | Claims Act is amended by changing Section 2 as follows:
| ||||||
4 | (740 ILCS 20/2) (from Ch. 70, par. 902)
| ||||||
5 | Sec. 2. Findings and intent.
| ||||||
6 | (a) The General Assembly finds
that the abuse of cannabis | ||||||
7 | and controlled substances:
| ||||||
8 | (1) greatly increases incidents involving crimes of | ||||||
9 | violence and threats
of crimes of violence;
| ||||||
10 | (2) causes death or severe and often irreversible
| ||||||
11 | injuries to newborn children;
| ||||||
12 | (3) accounts for the commission of the
majority of | ||||||
13 | property crimes committed within this State;
| ||||||
14 | (4) causes motor vehicle crashes and job-related , job | ||||||
15 | related, and numerous other types of
accidents that | ||||||
16 | frequently result in death or permanent injuries;
| ||||||
17 | (5) contributes to the disintegration of the family;
| ||||||
18 | (6) interferes with the duty of parents and legal | ||||||
19 | guardians to provide
for the physical, mental, and | ||||||
20 | emotional well-being of their unemancipated
children and | ||||||
21 | with the rights of parents and legal guardians to raise | ||||||
22 | the
children free from the physical, mental, and emotional | ||||||
23 | trauma that is
caused by the abuse of cannabis and | ||||||
24 | controlled substances;
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (7) encourages and fosters the growth of
urban gangs | ||||||
2 | engaged in violent and nonviolent crime;
| ||||||
3 | (8) furthers the interests of elements of organized | ||||||
4 | criminals;
| ||||||
5 | (9) increases the dropout, truancy, and failure rates | ||||||
6 | of children
attending schools within this State;
| ||||||
7 | (10) stifles educational opportunities for both drug | ||||||
8 | users and nonusers;
| ||||||
9 | (11) contributes to the unemployment rate within this | ||||||
10 | State;
| ||||||
11 | (12) reduces the productivity of employees, retards | ||||||
12 | competitiveness
within the established business community, | ||||||
13 | and hinders the formation and
growth of new businesses;
| ||||||
14 | (13) reduces the value of real property;
| ||||||
15 | (14) costs the citizens of this State billions of | ||||||
16 | dollars in federal,
State, and local taxes for increased | ||||||
17 | costs for law enforcement, welfare, and education;
| ||||||
18 | (15) costs the citizens of this State billions of | ||||||
19 | dollars in increased
costs for consumer goods and | ||||||
20 | services, insurance premiums, and medical treatment;
| ||||||
21 | (16) hinders citizens from freely using public parks, | ||||||
22 | streets, schools,
forest preserves, playgrounds, and other | ||||||
23 | public areas; and
| ||||||
24 | (17) contributes to a lower quality of life and | ||||||
25 | standard of living for
the citizens of this State.
| ||||||
26 | (b) The General Assembly finds that, in light of the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | findings made
in subsection (a), any violation of the Cannabis | ||||||
2 | Control Act, the Methamphetamine Control and Community | ||||||
3 | Protection Act, or the
Illinois Controlled Substances Act that | ||||||
4 | involves the nonconsensual use of
the real or personal | ||||||
5 | property of another person, whether that person is an
| ||||||
6 | individual or a governmental or private entity representing a | ||||||
7 | collection of
individuals, is so injurious to the property | ||||||
8 | interests and the well-being
of that person that the violation | ||||||
9 | gives rise to a cause of action sounding
in tort. The General | ||||||
10 | Assembly also finds that the delivery of a controlled
| ||||||
11 | substance or cannabis in violation of the Illinois Controlled | ||||||
12 | Substances
Act, the Methamphetamine Control and Community | ||||||
13 | Protection Act, or the Cannabis Control Act to an | ||||||
14 | unemancipated minor under the age of
18 is so injurious to the | ||||||
15 | rights and duties of parents and legal guardians
relating to | ||||||
16 | the physical, mental, and emotional well-being of that minor
| ||||||
17 | that the violation also gives rise to a cause of action | ||||||
18 | sounding in tort.
The General Assembly further finds that | ||||||
19 | although the damage a person
suffers through the nonconsensual | ||||||
20 | use of his property to facilitate such a
violation or the | ||||||
21 | damage a parent or legal guardian suffers as the result of
the | ||||||
22 | delivery to the minor of cannabis or a substance in violation | ||||||
23 | of the
Cannabis Control Act, the Methamphetamine Control and | ||||||
24 | Community Protection Act, or the Illinois Controlled | ||||||
25 | Substances Act is often
subtle and incapable of precise | ||||||
26 | articulation, that damage is nonetheless
real and substantial. |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | It is therefore the intent of the General Assembly
to create a | ||||||
2 | cause of action with statutorily prescribed damages for the
| ||||||
3 | conduct described in this Act.
| ||||||
4 | (Source: P.A. 94-556, eff. 9-11-05.)
