Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Boat Registration and Safety Act. Provides that, in cases involving death or personal injury, the failure of the operator of a watercraft involved in an accident to remain at the scene as required by the Act is a Class A misdemeanor. Provides that a person who has failed to remain at the scene of an accident involving death or personal injury as required by the Act must, within a specified time, report specified information concerning the accident at a police station or sheriff's office near the location where the accident occurred. Provides that failure to comply with this reporting requirement is a Class 4 felony in a case not involving the death of a person and a Class 2 felony in a case involving the death of a person. Provides that, if the defendant is sentenced to a term of imprisonment in a case involving the death of a person, the term shall be not less than 3 years and not more than 14 years. Provides for mandatory suspension of watercraft operation privileges under specified circumstances. Increases penalties for reckless operation of a watercraft. Provides that penalties for operating a watercraft under the influence also apply if a person is in actual physical control of a watercraft. Provides that a second or subsequent violation of operating a watercraft while watercraft operating privileges are suspended is a Class 4 felony. Amends the Unified Code of Corrections. Provides that a person may not receive court supervision more than once for operating a watercraft under the influence. Makes other changes.

Senate Floor Amendment No. 1
Provides that in the Boat Registration and Safety Act provision regarding reports on collisions, accidents, and casualties, a personal injury is any injury requiring medical treatment beyond first aid (rather than any injury requiring immediate professional treatment at a medical facility or doctor's office). Provides that a person convicted of reckless operation of a watercraft shall, in addition to any other penalties authorized under the Act, have his or her privilege of operating any watercraft on any of the waterways of this State suspended for a period of not less than one year (rather than being refused the privilege of operating a watercraft for a period of not less than one year).
