| be suspended if the person
submits to a chemical test, or | 9 |
| tests, and the test discloses an alcohol
concentration of | 10 |
| 0.06
0.08 or more, or any amount of a drug, substance,
or | 11 |
| compound in the person's blood or urine resulting from the | 12 |

the Secretary may upon application,
to relieve undue | 25 |

a restricted driving permit granting the | 26 |
| privilege of driving a motor
vehicle between the | 27 |

professional evaluation | 32 |
| indicates, provide transportation for alcohol
remedial or | 33 |

| If a person's license or permit has been revoked or | 4 |
| suspended due to 2
or more convictions 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, arising out
of | 7 |

| driving permit,
may not operate a vehicle unless it has | 9 |
| been equipped with an ignition
interlock device as defined | 10 |
| in Section 1-129.1.
| 11 |
| If a person's license or permit has been revoked or | 12 |
| suspended 2 or more
times within a 10 year period due to a | 13 |
| single conviction of violating Section
11-501 of this Code | 14 |
| or a similar provision of a local ordinance or a similar
| 15 |
| out-of-state offense, and a statutory summary suspension | 16 |
| under Section
11-501.1, or 2 or more statutory summary | 17 |
| suspensions, or combination of 2
offenses, or of an offense | 18 |
| and a statutory summary suspension, arising out of
separate | 19 |
| occurrences, that person, if issued a restricted driving | 20 |
| permit, may
not operate a vehicle unless it has been
| 21 |
| equipped with an ignition interlock device as defined in | 22 |
| Section 1-129.1.
The person must pay to the Secretary of | 23 |
| State DUI Administration Fund an amount
not to exceed $20 | 24 |
| per month. The Secretary shall establish by rule the amount
| 25 |
| and the procedures, terms, and conditions relating to these | 26 |
| fees. If the
restricted driving permit was issued for | 27 |
| employment purposes, then this
provision does not apply to | 28 |
| the operation of an occupational vehicle owned or
leased by | 29 |
| that person's employer. In each case the Secretary may | 30 |
| issue a
restricted driving permit for a period deemed | 31 |
| appropriate, except that all
permits shall expire within | 32 |
| one year from the date of issuance. The Secretary
may not, | 33 |
| however, issue a restricted driving permit to any person | 34 |
| whose current
revocation is the result of a second or | 35 |
| subsequent conviction for a violation
of Section 11-501 of | 36 |

manner and for like cause as | 10 |

| more
offenses against laws or ordinances regulating the | 13 |
| movement of traffic
shall be deemed sufficient cause for | 14 |
| the revocation, suspension, or
cancellation of a | 15 |

a | 16 |
| condition to the issuance of a restricted driving permit, | 17 |
| require the
applicant to participate in a designated driver | 18 |
| remedial or rehabilitative
program. The Secretary of State | 19 |

driving permit if the | 20 |

Code.

| 10 |
| (a) A person who is less than 21 years of age and who | 11 |
| drives or
is in actual physical control of a motor vehicle upon | 12 |
| the
public highways of this State shall be deemed to have given | 13 |
| consent to a
chemical test or tests of blood, breath, or urine | 14 |
| for the purpose of
determining the alcohol content of the | 15 |
| person's blood if arrested, as evidenced
by the issuance of a | 16 |
| Uniform Traffic Ticket for any violation of the Illinois
| 17 |
| Vehicle Code or a similar provision of a local ordinance, if a | 18 |
| police officer
has probable cause to believe that the driver | 19 |
| has consumed any amount of an
alcoholic beverage based upon | 20 |
| evidence of the driver's physical condition or
other first hand | 21 |
| knowledge of the police officer. The test or tests shall be
| 22 |
| administered at the direction of the arresting officer. The law | 23 |
| enforcement
agency employing the officer shall designate which | 24 |
| of the aforesaid tests shall
be administered. A urine test may | 25 |
| be administered even after a blood or
breath test or both has | 26 |
| been administered.
| 27 |
| (b) A person who is dead, unconscious, or who is otherwise | 28 |
| in a condition
rendering that person incapable of refusal, | 29 |
| shall be deemed not to have
withdrawn the consent provided by | 30 |
| paragraph (a) of this Section and the test or
tests may be | 31 |
| administered subject to the following provisions:
| 32 |
| (i) Chemical analysis of the person's blood, urine, | 33 |
| breath, or
other bodily substance, to be considered valid | 34 |
| under the provisions of this
Section, shall have been | 35 |
| performed according to standards promulgated by the |

LRB093 16606 DRH 42256 b |
|
| 1 |
| Department of State
Police
by an individual possessing a | 2 |
| valid permit issued by that Department for this
purpose. | 3 |
| The Director of State Police is authorized to approve | 4 |
| satisfactory
techniques or methods, to ascertain the | 5 |
| qualifications and competence of
individuals to conduct | 6 |
| analyses, to issue permits that shall be subject to
| 7 |
| termination or revocation at the direction of that | 8 |
| Department, and to certify
the accuracy of breath testing | 9 |
| equipment. The Department of
State Police shall prescribe | 10 |
| regulations as necessary.
| 11 |
| (ii) When a person submits to a blood test at the | 12 |
| request of a law
enforcement officer under the provisions | 13 |
| of this Section, only a physician
authorized to practice | 14 |
| medicine, a registered nurse, or other qualified person
| 15 |
| trained in venipuncture and acting under the direction of a | 16 |
| licensed physician
may withdraw blood for the purpose of | 17 |
| determining the alcohol content therein.
This limitation | 18 |
| does not apply to the taking of breath or urine specimens.
| 19 |
| (iii) The person tested may have a physician, qualified | 20 |
| technician,
chemist, registered nurse, or other qualified | 21 |
| person of his or her own choosing
administer a chemical | 22 |
| test or tests in addition to any test or tests
administered | 23 |
| at the direction of a law enforcement officer. The failure | 24 |
| or
inability to obtain an additional test by a person shall | 25 |
| not preclude the
consideration of the previously performed | 26 |
| chemical test.
| 27 |
| (iv) Upon a request of the person who submits to a | 28 |
| chemical test or
tests at the request of a law enforcement | 29 |
| officer, full information concerning
the test or tests | 30 |
| shall be made available to the person or that person's
| 31 |
| attorney.
| 32 |
| (v) Alcohol concentration means either grams of | 33 |
| alcohol per 100
milliliters of blood or grams of alcohol | 34 |
| per 210 liters of breath.
| 35 |
| (vi) If a driver is receiving medical treatment as a | 36 |
| result of a motor
vehicle accident, a physician licensed to |
|
|
|
HB4325 |
- 42 - |
LRB093 16606 DRH 42256 b |
|
| 1 |
| practice medicine, registered nurse,
or other qualified | 2 |
| person trained in venipuncture and
acting under the | 3 |
| direction of a licensed physician shall
withdraw blood for | 4 |
| testing purposes to ascertain the presence of alcohol upon
| 5 |
| the specific request of a law enforcement officer. However, | 6 |
| that testing
shall not be performed until, in the opinion | 7 |
| of the medical personnel on scene,
the withdrawal can be | 8 |
| made without interfering with or endangering the
| 9 |
| well-being of the patient.
| 10 |
| (c) A person requested to submit to a test as provided | 11 |
| above shall be warned
by the law enforcement officer requesting | 12 |
| the test that a refusal to submit to
the test, or submission to | 13 |
| the test resulting in an alcohol concentration of
more than | 14 |
| 0.00, may result in the loss of that person's privilege to | 15 |
| operate a
motor vehicle. The loss of driving privileges shall | 16 |
| be imposed in accordance
with Section 6-208.2 of this Code.
| 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 | 20 |
| the Secretary of State on a form
prescribed by the Secretary of | 21 |
| State, certifying that the test or tests were
requested under | 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 | 27 |
| and the testing discloses an alcohol concentration of
more than | 28 |
| 0.00 and less than 0.06
0.08 .
| 29 |
| Upon receipt of the sworn report of a law enforcement | 30 |
| officer, the Secretary
of State shall enter the driver's | 31 |
| license sanction on the individual's driving
record and the | 32 |
| sanctions shall be effective on the 46th day following the date
| 33 |
| notice of the sanction was given to the person. If this | 34 |
| sanction is the
individual's first driver's license suspension | 35 |
| under this Section, reports
received by the Secretary of State | 36 |
| under this Section shall, except during the
time the suspension |
|
|
|
HB4325 |
- 43 - |
LRB093 16606 DRH 42256 b |
|
| 1 |
| is in effect, be privileged information and for use only by
the | 2 |
| courts, police officers, prosecuting authorities, the | 3 |
| Secretary of State,
or the individual personally.
| 4 |
| The law enforcement officer submitting the sworn report | 5 |
| shall serve immediate
notice of this driver's license sanction | 6 |
| on the person and the sanction shall
be effective on the 46th | 7 |
| day following the date notice was given.
| 8 |
| In cases where the blood alcohol concentration of more than | 9 |
| 0.00 is
established by a subsequent analysis of blood or urine, | 10 |
| the police officer or
arresting agency shall give notice as | 11 |
| provided in this Section or by deposit
in the United States | 12 |
| mail of that notice in an envelope with postage prepaid
and | 13 |
| addressed to that person at his last known address and the loss | 14 |
| of driving
privileges shall be effective on the 46th day | 15 |
| following the date notice was
given.
| 16 |
| Upon receipt of the sworn report of a law enforcement | 17 |
| officer, the Secretary
of State shall also give notice of the | 18 |
| driver's license sanction to the driver
by mailing a notice of | 19 |
| the effective date of the sanction to the individual.
However, | 20 |
| should the sworn report be defective by not containing | 21 |
| sufficient
information or be completed in error, the notice of | 22 |
| the driver's license
sanction may not be mailed to the person | 23 |
| or entered to the driving record,
but rather the sworn report | 24 |
| shall be returned to the issuing law enforcement
agency.
| 25 |
| (e) A driver may contest this driver's license sanction by | 26 |
| requesting an
administrative hearing with the Secretary of | 27 |
| State in accordance with Section
2-118 of this Code. An | 28 |
| individual whose blood alcohol concentration is shown
to be | 29 |
| more than 0.00 is not subject to this Section if he or she | 30 |
| consumed
alcohol in the performance of a religious service or | 31 |
| ceremony. An individual
whose blood alcohol concentration is | 32 |
| shown to be more than 0.00 shall not be
subject to this Section | 33 |
| if the individual's blood alcohol concentration
resulted only | 34 |
| from ingestion of the prescribed or recommended dosage of
| 35 |
| medicine that contained alcohol. The petition for that hearing | 36 |
| shall not stay
or delay the effective date of the impending |
|
|
|
HB4325 |
- 44 - |
LRB093 16606 DRH 42256 b |
|
| 1 |
| suspension. The scope of this
hearing shall be limited to the | 2 |
| issues of:
| 3 |
| (1) whether the police officer had probable cause to | 4 |
| believe that the
person was driving or in actual physical | 5 |
| control of a motor vehicle upon the
public highways of the | 6 |
| State and the police officer had reason to believe that
the | 7 |
| person was in violation of any provision of the Illinois | 8 |
| Vehicle Code or a
similar provision of a local ordinance; | 9 |
| and
| 10 |
| (2) whether the person was issued a Uniform Traffic | 11 |
| Ticket for any
violation of the Illinois Vehicle Code or a | 12 |
| similar provision of a local
ordinance; and
| 13 |
| (3) whether the police officer had probable cause to | 14 |
| believe that the
driver
had consumed any amount of an | 15 |
| alcoholic beverage based upon the driver's
physical | 16 |
| actions or other first-hand knowledge of the police | 17 |
| officer; and
| 18 |
| (4) whether the person, after being advised by the | 19 |
| officer that the
privilege to operate a motor vehicle would | 20 |
| be suspended if the person refused
to submit to and | 21 |
| complete the test or tests, did refuse to submit to or
| 22 |
| complete the test or tests to determine the person's | 23 |
| alcohol concentration;
and
| 24 |
| (5) whether the person, after being advised by the | 25 |
| officer that the
privileges to operate a motor vehicle | 26 |
| would be suspended if the person submits
to a chemical test | 27 |
| or tests and the test or tests disclose an alcohol
| 28 |
| concentration of more than 0.00, did submit to and
complete | 29 |
| the
test or tests that determined an alcohol concentration | 30 |
| of more than 0.00; and
| 31 |
| (6) whether the test result of an alcohol concentration | 32 |
| of more than 0.00
was based upon the person's consumption | 33 |
| of alcohol in the performance of a
religious service or | 34 |
| ceremony; and
| 35 |
| (7) whether the test result of an alcohol concentration | 36 |
| of more than 0.00
was based upon the person's consumption |
|
|
|
HB4325 |
- 45 - |
LRB093 16606 DRH 42256 b |
|
| 1 |
| of alcohol through ingestion of the
prescribed or | 2 |
| recommended dosage of medicine.
| 3 |
| Provided that the petitioner may subpoena the officer, the | 4 |
| hearing may be
conducted upon a review of the law enforcement | 5 |
| officer's own official reports.
Failure of the officer to | 6 |
| answer the subpoena shall be grounds for a
continuance if, in | 7 |
| the hearing officer's discretion, the continuance is
| 8 |
| appropriate. At the conclusion of the hearing held under | 9 |
| Section 2-118 of
this Code, the Secretary of State may rescind, | 10 |
| continue, or modify the driver's
license sanction. If the | 11 |
| Secretary of State does not rescind the sanction, a
restricted | 12 |
| driving permit may be granted by the Secretary of State upon
| 13 |
| application being made and good cause shown. A restricted | 14 |
| driving permit may be
granted to relieve undue hardship by | 15 |
| allowing driving for employment,
educational, and medical | 16 |
| purposes as outlined in item (3) of part (c) of
Section 6-206 | 17 |
| of this Code. The provisions of item (3) of part (c) of Section
| 18 |
| 6-206 of this Code shall apply. The Secretary of State shall | 19 |
| promulgate rules
providing for participation in an alcohol | 20 |
| education and awareness program or
activity, a drug education | 21 |
| and awareness program or activity, or both as a
condition to | 22 |
| the issuance of a restricted driving permit for suspensions
| 23 |
| imposed under this Section.
| 24 |
| (f) The results of any chemical testing performed in | 25 |
| accordance with
subsection (a) of this Section are not | 26 |
| admissible in any civil or criminal
proceeding, except that the | 27 |
| results of the testing may be considered at a
hearing held | 28 |
| under Section 2-118 of this Code. However, the results of
the | 29 |
| testing may not be used to impose driver's license sanctions | 30 |
| under
Section 11-501.1 of this Code. A law enforcement officer | 31 |
| may, however, pursue
a statutory summary suspension of driving | 32 |
| privileges under Section 11-501.1 of
this Code if other | 33 |
| physical evidence or first hand knowledge forms the basis
of | 34 |
| that suspension.
| 35 |
| (g) This Section applies only to drivers who are under
age | 36 |
| 21 at the time of the issuance of a Uniform Traffic Ticket for |
|
|
|
HB4325 |
- 46 - |
LRB093 16606 DRH 42256 b |
|
| 1 |
| a
violation of the Illinois Vehicle Code or a similar provision | 2 |
| of a local
ordinance, and a chemical test request is made under | 3 |
| this Section.
| 4 |
| (h) The action of the Secretary of State in suspending, | 5 |
| revoking, or
denying any license, permit, registration, or | 6 |
| certificate of title shall be
subject to judicial review in the | 7 |
| Circuit Court of Sangamon County or in the
Circuit Court of | 8 |
| Cook County, and the provisions of the Administrative Review
| 9 |
| Law and its rules are hereby adopted and shall apply to and | 10 |
| govern every action
for the judicial review of final acts or | 11 |
| decisions of the Secretary of State
under this Section.

|
14 |
| Section 10. The Snowmobile Registration and Safety Act is | 15 |
| amended by changing Section 5-7.1 as follows:
| 16 |
| (625 ILCS 40/5-7.1)
| 17 |
| Sec. 5-7.1. Implied consent.
| 18 |
| (a) A person who operates or is in actual physical control | 19 |
| of a
snowmobile in this State is deemed to have
given consent | 20 |
| to a chemical test or tests of blood, breath, or urine for the
| 21 |
| purpose of determining the content of alcohol, other drug or
| 22 |
| drugs, intoxicating compound or compounds, or a combination of | 23 |
| them in that person's blood if
arrested for a violation of | 24 |
| Section 5-7. The chemical test or tests shall
be
administered | 25 |
| at the direction of the arresting officer. The law enforcement
| 26 |
| agency employing the officer shall designate which tests shall | 27 |
| be
administered. A urine test may be administered even after a | 28 |
| blood or breath
test or both has been administered.
| 29 |
| (a-1) For the purposes of this Section, an Illinois law | 30 |
| enforcement
officer of this State who is investigating the | 31 |
| person for any offense defined
in Section 5-7 may travel into | 32 |
| an adjoining state, where the person has been
transported for | 33 |
| medical care to complete an investigation and to request that
| 34 |
| the person submit to the test or tests set forth in this |
|
|
|
HB4325 |
- 47 - |
LRB093 16606 DRH 42256 b |
|
| 1 |
| Section. The
requirements of this Section that the person be | 2 |
| arrested are inapplicable, but
the officer shall issue the | 3 |
| person a uniform citation for an offense as defined
in Section | 4 |
| 5-7 or a similar provision of a local ordinance prior to | 5 |
| requesting
that the person submit to the test or tests. The | 6 |
| issuance of the uniform
citation shall not
constitute an | 7 |
| arrest, but shall be for the purpose of notifying the person | 8 |
| that
he or she is subject to the provisions of this Section and | 9 |
| of the officer's
belief of the existence of probable cause to | 10 |
| arrest. Upon returning to this
State, the officer shall file | 11 |
| the uniform citation with the circuit clerk of
the county where | 12 |
| the offense was committed and shall seek the issuance of an
| 13 |
| arrest warrant or a summons for the person.
| 14 |
| (a-2) Notwithstanding any ability to refuse under this Act | 15 |
| to submit to
these
tests or any ability to revoke the implied | 16 |
| consent to these tests, if a law
enforcement officer has | 17 |
| probable cause to believe that a snowmobile operated by
or | 18 |
| under actual physical control of a person under the influence | 19 |
| of alcohol,
other drug or drugs, intoxicating
compound or | 20 |
| compounds, or any combination of them has caused the death or
| 21 |
| personal injury to another, that person shall submit, upon the | 22 |
| request of a law
enforcement officer, to a chemical test or | 23 |
| tests of his or her blood, breath,
or
urine for the purpose of | 24 |
| determining the alcohol content or the
presence of any other | 25 |
| drug or combination of both. For the purposes of this
Section, | 26 |
| a personal injury includes severe bleeding wounds, distorted
| 27 |
| extremities, and injuries that require the injured party to be | 28 |
| carried from the
scene for immediate professional attention in | 29 |
| either a doctor's office or a
medical facility.
| 30 |
| (b) A person who is dead, unconscious, or who is otherwise | 31 |
| in a condition
rendering that person incapable of refusal, is | 32 |
| deemed not to have
withdrawn the consent provided in subsection | 33 |
| (a), and the test or tests may
be administered.
| 34 |
| (c) A person requested to submit to a test as provided in | 35 |
| this Section shall
be verbally advised by the law enforcement | 36 |
| officer requesting the test that a
refusal to submit to the |
|
|
|
HB4325 |
- 48 - |
LRB093 16606 DRH 42256 b |
|
| 1 |
| test will result in suspension of that person's
privilege to | 2 |
| operate a snowmobile for a minimum of 2 years.
| 3 |
| (d) Following this warning, if a person under arrest | 4 |
| refuses upon the
request of a law enforcement officer to submit | 5 |
| to a test designated by the
officer, no tests may be given, but | 6 |
| the law enforcement officer
shall file with
the clerk of the | 7 |
| circuit court for the county in which the arrest was made,
and | 8 |
| with the Department of Natural Resources, a
sworn statement | 9 |
| naming the person refusing to take and complete the
chemical | 10 |
| test or
tests requested under the provisions of this Section. | 11 |
| The sworn statement
shall identify the arrested person, the | 12 |
| person's current residence address and
shall specify that a | 13 |
| refusal by that person to take the chemical test or
tests was | 14 |
| made.
The sworn statement shall include a statement
that the | 15 |
| officer had reasonable cause to believe the person was | 16 |
| operating or
was in actual physical control of the
snowmobile | 17 |
| within this State while under the influence of alcohol,
other | 18 |
| drug or drugs, an intoxicating compound or compound, or a | 19 |
| combination
of them
and that a chemical test or tests were | 20 |
| requested as an incident to and
following the
lawful
arrest for | 21 |
| an offense as defined in Section 5-7 or a similar provision of | 22 |
| a
local ordinance, and that the person, after being arrested | 23 |
| for an offense
arising out of acts alleged to have been | 24 |
| committed while operating a
snowmobile,
refused to submit to | 25 |
| and complete a chemical test or tests as requested by
the law
| 26 |
| enforcement officer.
| 27 |
| (e) The law enforcement officer submitting the sworn | 28 |
| statement shall serve
immediate written notice upon the person | 29 |
| refusing the chemical test or tests
that the person's privilege | 30 |
| to operate a snowmobile within this State will be
suspended for | 31 |
| a period of 2 years unless, within
28 days from the date of the | 32 |
| notice, the person requests in writing a hearing
on the | 33 |
| suspension.
| 34 |
| If the person desires a hearing, the person shall file a | 35 |
| complaint in the
circuit court in the county where that person | 36 |
| was arrested within 28 days from
the date of the notice.
The |

LRB093 16606 DRH 42256 b |
|
| 1 |
| hearing shall proceed in the court in the same manner as other | 2 |
| civil
proceedings. The hearing shall cover only the following | 3 |
| issues: (1) whether
the person was placed under
arrest for an | 4 |
| offense as defined in Section 5-7 or a similar provision of a
| 5 |
| local
ordinance as evidenced by the issuance of a uniform | 6 |
| citation; (2) whether the
arresting officer had reasonable | 7 |
| grounds to believe that the person was
operating a snowmobile | 8 |
| while under the influence of alcohol, other
drug or
drugs, an | 9 |
| intoxicating compound or compounds, or a combination of them; | 10 |
| and
(3) whether that person refused to submit to and complete | 11 |
| the chemical
test or tests upon
the
request of the law | 12 |
| enforcement officer. Whether the person was informed that
the | 13 |
| person's privilege to operate a snowmobile would be suspended | 14 |
| if that
person refused to submit to the chemical test or tests | 15 |
| may not be an issue
in the hearing.
| 16 |
| If the person fails to request a hearing in writing within | 17 |
| 28 days of the
date of the notice, or if a hearing is held and | 18 |
| the court finds against the
person on the issues before the | 19 |
| court,
the clerk shall immediately notify the Department of | 20 |
| Natural Resources, and the Department shall suspend the | 21 |
| snowmobile operation
privileges of
that person for at least 2 | 22 |
| years.
| 23 |
| (f) (Blank).
| 24 |
| (f-1) If the person submits to a test that discloses an | 25 |
| alcohol
concentration of 0.06
0.08 or more, or any amount of a | 26 |
| drug, substance, or
intoxicating compound in the person's | 27 |
| breath, blood, or urine resulting from
the unlawful use of | 28 |
| cannabis listed in the Cannabis Control Act, a controlled
| 29 |
| substance listed in the Illinois Controlled Substances Act, or | 30 |
| an intoxicating
compound listed in the Use of Intoxicating | 31 |
| Compounds Act, the law enforcement
officer shall
immediately | 32 |
| submit a sworn report to the circuit clerk of venue and the
| 33 |
| Department of Natural
Resources, certifying that the test or | 34 |
| tests was or were requested under
subsection (a-1) of this | 35 |
| Section and the person submitted to testing that

| control of any
watercraft upon the waters of this
State | 17 |
| shall be deemed to have given consent to a chemical test or | 18 |
| tests of
blood, breath or urine for the purpose of | 19 |
| determining the content of
alcohol, other
drug or drugs, | 20 |
| intoxicating compound or compounds, or combination thereof
| 21 |
| in the person's blood if arrested for
any offense of | 22 |
| subsection (A) above. The chemical test or tests shall be
| 23 |
| administered at
the direction of the arresting officer.
The | 24 |
| law enforcement agency employing the
officer shall | 25 |
| designate which of the tests shall be administered. A
urine | 26 |
| test may be
administered even after a blood or breath test | 27 |
| or both has been administered.
| 28 |
| 1.1. For the purposes of this Section, an Illinois Law | 29 |
| Enforcement
officer of
this
State who is investigating the | 30 |
| person for any offense defined in Section 5-16
may travel
| 31 |
| into an adjoining state, where the person has been | 32 |
| transported for medical care
to
complete an investigation, | 33 |
| and may request that the person submit to the test
or
tests | 34 |
| set
forth in this Section. The requirements of this Section | 35 |
| that the person be
arrested are
inapplicable, but the | 36 |
| officer shall issue the person a uniform citation for an
|
|
|
|
HB4325 |
- 54 - |
LRB093 16606 DRH 42256 b |
|
| 1 |
| offense as
defined in Section 5-16 or a similar provision | 2 |
| of a local ordinance prior to
requesting that
the person | 3 |
| submit to the test or tests. The issuance of the uniform | 4 |
| citation
shall not
constitute an arrest, but shall be for | 5 |
| the purpose of notifying the person that
he or she is
| 6 |
| subject to the provisions of this Section and of the | 7 |
| officer's belief in the
existence of
probable cause to | 8 |
| arrest. Upon returning to this State, the officer shall | 9 |
| file
the uniform
citation with the circuit clerk of the | 10 |
| county where the offense was committed
and shall
seek the | 11 |
| issuance of an arrest warrant or a summons for the person.
| 12 |
| 1.2. Notwithstanding any ability to refuse under this | 13 |
| Act to submit to
these
tests
or any ability to revoke the | 14 |
| implied consent to these tests, if a law
enforcement | 15 |
| officer
has probable cause to believe that a watercraft | 16 |
| operated by or under actual
physical
control of a person | 17 |
| under the influence of alcohol, other drug or drugs,
| 18 |
| intoxicating
compound or compounds, or any combination of | 19 |
| them has caused the death of or
personal
injury to another, | 20 |
| that person shall submit, upon the request of a law
| 21 |
| enforcement officer,
to a chemical test or tests of his or | 22 |
| her blood, breath, or urine for the
purpose of
determining | 23 |
| the alcohol content or the presence of any other drug, | 24 |
| intoxicating
compound, or
combination
of them. For the | 25 |
| purposes of this Section, a personal injury includes severe
| 26 |
| bleeding
wounds, distorted extremities, and injuries that | 27 |
| require the injured party to
be carried
from the scene for | 28 |
| immediate professional attention in either a doctor's | 29 |
| office
or a
medical facility.
| 30 |
| 2. Any person who is dead, unconscious or who is | 31 |
| otherwise in a condition
rendering such person incapable of | 32 |
| refusal, shall be deemed not to have
withdrawn the consent | 33 |
| provided above, and the test may be administered.
| 34 |
| 3. A person requested to submit to a chemical test as | 35 |
| provided above
shall be
verbally advised by the law | 36 |
| enforcement officer requesting the test that a
refusal to |
|
|
|
HB4325 |
- 55 - |
LRB093 16606 DRH 42256 b |
|
| 1 |
| submit to the test will result in suspension of such | 2 |
| person's
privilege to operate a watercraft for a minimum of | 3 |
| 2 years. Following this
warning, if a person
under arrest | 4 |
| refuses upon the request of a law enforcement officer to
| 5 |
| submit to a test designated by the officer, no test
shall | 6 |
| be given, but the law enforcement officer shall file with | 7 |
| the clerk
of the circuit court for the county in which the | 8 |
| arrest was made, and with
the Department of Natural | 9 |
| Resources, a sworn
statement naming the person refusing to | 10 |
| take and complete the chemical test
or tests
requested | 11 |
| under the provisions of this Section. Such sworn statement | 12 |
| shall
identify the arrested person, such person's current | 13 |
| residence address and
shall specify that a refusal by such | 14 |
| person to take the chemical test or
tests was
made. Such | 15 |
| sworn statement shall include a statement that the | 16 |
| arresting
officer had reasonable cause to believe the | 17 |
| person was operating or was in
actual physical control of | 18 |
| the
watercraft within this State while under the influence | 19 |
| of alcohol, other
drug or drugs, intoxicating compound or | 20 |
| compounds, or combination thereof
and that such
chemical | 21 |
| test or tests were made as an
incident to and following the | 22 |
| lawful arrest for an offense as defined in
this Section or | 23 |
| a similar provision of a local ordinance, and that the
| 24 |
| person after being arrested for an offense arising out of | 25 |
| acts alleged to
have been committed while so operating a | 26 |
| watercraft refused to submit to
and complete a chemical | 27 |
| test or tests as requested by the law enforcement
officer.
| 28 |
| 3.1. The law enforcement officer submitting the sworn | 29 |
| statement as
provided in
paragraph 3 of this subsection (B) | 30 |
| shall serve immediate written notice upon
the
person | 31 |
| refusing the chemical test or tests that the person's | 32 |
| privilege to
operate a
watercraft within this State will be | 33 |
| suspended for a period of 2 years unless,
within 28 days | 34 |
| from the date of the notice, the person requests in writing | 35 |
| a
hearing
on the suspension.
| 36 |
| If the person desires a hearing, such person
shall file |
|
|
|
HB4325 |
- 56 - |
LRB093 16606 DRH 42256 b |
|
| 1 |
| a complaint in the circuit court for and in the county in | 2 |
| which
such person was arrested for such hearing. Such | 3 |
| hearing shall proceed in
the court in the same manner as | 4 |
| other civil proceedings, shall cover only
the issues of | 5 |
| whether the person was placed under arrest for an offense | 6 |
| as
defined in this Section or a similar provision of a | 7 |
| local ordinance as
evidenced by the issuance of a uniform | 8 |
| citation; whether the arresting
officer had reasonable | 9 |
| grounds to believe that such person was operating a
| 10 |
| watercraft while under the influence of alcohol, other drug | 11 |
| or drugs,
intoxicating compound or compounds, or | 12 |
| combination
thereof; and whether such person refused to | 13 |
| submit and complete the
chemical test or
tests upon the | 14 |
| request of the law enforcement officer. Whether the person
| 15 |
| was informed that such person's privilege to operate a | 16 |
| watercraft would be
suspended if such person refused to | 17 |
| submit to the chemical test or tests
shall not be an
issue.
| 18 |
| If the person fails to request in writing a hearing | 19 |
| within 28 days from
the date of notice, or if a hearing is | 20 |
| held and the court finds against the
person on the issues | 21 |
| before the court, the
clerk shall immediately notify the | 22 |
| Department of Natural Resources, and the Department shall | 23 |
| suspend the watercraft operation
privileges of the person | 24 |
| for at least 2 years.
| 25 |
| 3.2. If the person submits to a test that discloses an | 26 |
| alcohol
concentration
of 0.06
0.08
or more, or any amount | 27 |
| of a drug, substance or intoxicating compound in the
| 28 |
| person's
breath, blood, or urine resulting from the | 29 |
| unlawful use of cannabis listed in
the Cannabis
Control | 30 |
| Act, a controlled substance listed in the Illinois | 31 |
| Controlled
Substances Act, or an
intoxicating compound | 32 |
| listed in the Use of Intoxicating Compounds Act, the law
| 33 |
| enforcement officer shall immediately submit a sworn | 34 |
| report to the circuit
clerk of venue
and the Department of | 35 |
| Natural Resources, certifying that the test or tests were
| 36 |
| requested
under paragraph 1 of this subsection (B) and the |
|
|
|
HB4325 |
- 57 - |

|
| 1 |
| person submitted to testing
that
disclosed an alcohol | 2 |
| concentration of 0.06
0.08 or more.
| 3 |
| In cases where the blood alcohol concentration of 0.06
| 4 |
| 0.08 or greater or any
amount of
drug, substance or | 5 |
| compound resulting from the unlawful use of cannabis, a
| 6 |
| controlled
substance or an intoxicating compound is | 7 |
| established by a subsequent analysis
of blood
or urine | 8 |
| collected at the time of arrest, the arresting officer or | 9 |
| arresting
agency shall
immediately submit a sworn report to | 10 |
| the circuit clerk of venue and the
Department of
Natural | 11 |
| Resources upon receipt of the test results.
| 12 |
| 4. A person must submit to each chemical test offered | 13 |
| by the law
enforcement
officer
in order to comply with the | 14 |
| implied consent provisions of this Section.
| 15 |
| 5. The provisions of Section 11-501.2 of the Illinois | 16 |
| Vehicle Code, as
amended, concerning the certification and | 17 |
| use of chemical tests apply to the
use of such tests under | 18 |
| this Section.
| 19 |
| (C) 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 operating a
watercraft while under the | 22 |
| influence of alcohol, the concentration of alcohol
in the | 23 |
| person's blood or breath at the time alleged as shown by | 24 |
| analysis of a
person's blood, urine, breath, or other bodily | 25 |
| substance shall give rise to the
presumptions specified in | 26 |
| subdivisions 1, 2, and 3 of
subsection (b) of Section 11-501.2 | 27 |
| of the Illinois Vehicle Code. The foregoing
provisions of this | 28 |
| subsection (C) shall not be
construed
as limiting the | 29 |
| introduction of any other relevant evidence bearing upon the
| 30 |
| question whether the person was under the influence of alcohol.
| 31 |
| (D) If a person under arrest refuses to submit to a | 32 |
| chemical test under
the provisions of this Section, evidence of | 33 |
| refusal shall be admissible in
any civil or criminal action or | 34 |
| proceeding arising out of acts alleged to
have been committed | 35 |
| while the person under the influence of alcohol,
other drug or | 36 |
| drugs, intoxicating compound or compounds, or combination

| permit a watercraft to be
operated by any person under the | 5 |
| influence of alcohol, other drug or drugs,
intoxicating | 6 |
| compound or compounds, or
combination thereof.
| 7 |
| (F) Whenever any person is convicted or found guilty of a | 8 |
| violation of
this
Section, including any person placed on court | 9 |
| supervision, the court shall
notify the Office of Law | 10 |
| Enforcement of the
Department of Natural Resources, to provide | 11 |
| the Department with the records
essential for the performance | 12 |
| of the Department's duties to monitor and enforce
any order of | 13 |
