Bill Title: Amends the Illinois Vehicle Code. Provides that an intersection equipped with an automated traffic law enforcement system must have a yellow change interval of 3 to 6 seconds, as described in the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices published by the U.S. Department of Transportation, and the yellow change interval selected upon installation of an automated traffic law enforcement system may not be reduced while the intersection is equipped with the automated traffic law enforcement system. Provides that when a county or municipality is found to have reduced such a yellow change interval, the automated traffic law system shall be suspended for one month for a first violation and 3 months for a second or subsequent violation in addition to a $10,000 fine payable to the Secretary of State. Provides that a county or municipality is found to have reduced such a yellow change interval must conduct a mandatory review of all intersections in the jurisdiction of the county or municipality that are equipped with an automated traffic law enforcement system, send a written report to the Secretary of State certifying compliance, and send a written letter to all persons issued a violation notice in the past 60 days from the automated traffic law enforcement system informing those persons that the county or municipality tampered with the yellow change interval of the intersection equipped with an automated traffic law system.
