VEH CD-DEALERS-NEW KEY ISSUED                                              

Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Amends the Illinois Vehicle Code.  Provides that  other  than  at      
   the  time  of  sale of the vehicle, no vehicle dealer may issue to any      
   person a new key to a vehicle unless the person can prove that  he  or      
   she  is  the  owner of that vehicle by the certificate of title or the      
   vehicle registration card.  Effective immediately.                          
        SENATE AMENDMENT NO. 1.                                                
        Deletes the amendatory provisions of the original bill and             
   reinserts them with changes. Provides that the new provisions do not        
   apply at the time of repossession (as well as not applying at the time      
   of sale) of the vehicle. Provides that the requirements of the new          
   provisions are satisfied if the person presents the purchase documents      
   and finance contract or the rental or lease agreement (as well as if        
   the person presents the certificate of title or the motor vehicle           
   registration card). Provides that the vehicle dealer must make a copy       
   of the driver's license or State identification card of the person          
   requesting the newly created key and must retain the copy for 6             
   months. Provides that a vehicle dealer who violates these requirements      
   is guilty of a petty offense. Provides that a violation is not cause        
   to suspend, revoke, cancel, or deny renewal of the vehicle dealer's         
   license.                                                                    
        SENATE AMENDMENT NO. 2.                                                
        Provides that (in addition to the other  permitted  methods)  the      
   vehicle  dealer  may verify ownership of the vehicle by contacting the      
   vehicle dealer from whom the vehicle was purchased to confirm that the      
   person requesting the newly created key is the  person  who  purchased      
   the vehicle.                                                                
          FISCAL NOTE (Department of Transportation)                           
          Passage of SB 115 will cause no fiscal impact to IDOT.               
        HOUSE AMENDMENT NO. 2.                                                 
        Deletes the amendatory provisions of the bill as amended and           
   reinserts them with changes. Provides that the only requirement of          
   the new provisions is that the dealer must make a copy of the person's      
   driver's license or State identification card and retain the copy for       
   30 days.
