granting the privilege of driving a motor vehicle between the

alcohol or drug remedial or rehabilitative activity
recommended by a licensed service provider, or to allow the
petitioner to transport himself or herself or a family member
of the petitioner's household to classes, as a student, at an
accredited educational institution, or to allow the petitioner
to transport children, elderly persons, or disabled persons who
do not hold driving privileges and are living in the
petitioner's household to and from daycare; if the petitioner
is able to demonstrate that no alternative means of
transportation is reasonably available and that the petitioner
will not endanger the public safety or welfare; provided that
the Secretary's discretion shall be limited to cases where
undue hardship, as defined by the rules of the Secretary of
State, would result from a failure to issue the restricted
driving permit. Those multiple offenders identified in
subdivision (b)4 of Section 6-208 of this Code, however, shall
not be eligible for the issuance of a restricted driving
permit.
(2) If a person's license or permit is revoked or

HB4075 - 6 - LRB097 16897 HEP 62085 b
suspended due to 2 or more convictions of violating Section
11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a local
ordinance or a similar out-of-state offense, or Section 9-3
of the Criminal Code of 1961, where the use of alcohol or
other drugs is recited as an element of the offense, or a
similar out-of-state offense, or a combination of these
offenses, arising out of separate occurrences, that
person, if issued a restricted driving permit, may not
operate a vehicle unless it has been equipped with an
ignition interlock device as defined in Section 1-129.1.
(3) If:
(A) a person's license or permit is revoked or
suspended 2 or more times within a 10 year period due
to any combination of:
(i) a single conviction of violating Section
11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a
local ordinance or a similar out-of-state offense,
or Section 9-3 of the Criminal Code of 1961, where
the use of alcohol or other drugs is recited as an
element of the offense, or a similar out-of-state
offense; or
(ii) a statutory summary suspension or
revocation under Section 11-501.1; or
(iii) a suspension pursuant to Section
6-203.1;
arising out of separate occurrences; or

HB4075 - 7 - LRB097 16897 HEP 62085 b
(B) a person has been convicted of one violation of
Section 6-303 of this Code committed while his or her
driver's license, permit, or privilege was revoked
because of a violation of Section 9-3 of the Criminal
Code of 1961, relating to the offense of reckless
homicide where the use of alcohol or other drugs was
recited as an element of the offense, or a similar
provision of a law of another state;
that person, if issued a restricted driving permit, may not
operate a vehicle unless it has been equipped with an
ignition interlock device as defined in Section 1-129.1.
(4) The person issued a permit conditioned on the use
of an ignition interlock device must pay to the Secretary
of State DUI Administration Fund an amount not to exceed
$30 per month. The Secretary shall establish by rule the
amount and the procedures, terms, and conditions relating
to these fees.
(5) If the restricted driving permit is issued for
employment purposes, then the prohibition against
operating a motor vehicle that is not equipped with an
ignition interlock device does not apply to the operation
of an occupational vehicle owned or leased by that person's
employer when used solely for employment purposes.
(6) In each case the Secretary of State may issue a
restricted driving permit for a period he deems
appropriate, except that the permit shall expire within one

HB4075 - 8 - LRB097 16897 HEP 62085 b
year from the date of issuance. The Secretary may not,
however, issue a restricted driving permit to any person
whose current revocation is the result of a second or
subsequent conviction for a violation of Section 11-501 of
this Code or a similar provision of a local ordinance or
any similar out-of-state offense, or Section 9-3 of the
Criminal Code of 1961, where the use of alcohol or other
drugs is recited as an element of the offense, or any
similar out-of-state offense, or any combination of these
offenses, until the expiration of at least one year from
the date of the revocation. A restricted driving permit
issued under this Section shall be subject to cancellation,
revocation, and suspension by the Secretary of State in
like manner and for like cause as a driver's license issued
under this Code may be cancelled, revoked, or suspended;
except that a conviction upon one or more offenses against
laws or ordinances regulating the movement of traffic shall
be deemed sufficient cause for the revocation, suspension,
or cancellation of a restricted driving permit. The
Secretary of State may, as a condition to the issuance of a
restricted driving permit, require the petitioner to
participate in a designated driver remedial or
rehabilitative program. The Secretary of State is
authorized to cancel a restricted driving permit if the
permit holder does not successfully complete the program.
However, if an individual's driving privileges have been

HB4075 - 9 - LRB097 16897 HEP 62085 b
revoked in accordance with paragraph 13 of subsection (a)
of this Section, no restricted driving permit shall be
issued until the individual has served 6 months of the
revocation period.
(c-5) (Blank).
(c-6) If a person is convicted of a second violation of
operating a motor vehicle while the person's driver's license,
permit or privilege was revoked, where the revocation was for a
violation of Section 9-3 of the Criminal Code of 1961 relating
to the offense of reckless homicide or a similar out-of-state
offense, the person's driving privileges shall be revoked
pursuant to subdivision (a)(15) of this Section. The person may
not make application for a license or permit until the
expiration of five years from the effective date of the
revocation or the expiration of five years from the date of
release from a term of imprisonment, whichever is later.
(c-7) If a person is convicted of a third or subsequent
violation of operating a motor vehicle while the person's
driver's license, permit or privilege was revoked, where the
revocation was for a violation of Section 9-3 of the Criminal
Code of 1961 relating to the offense of reckless homicide or a
similar out-of-state offense, the person may never apply for a
license or permit.
(d)(1) Whenever a person under the age of 21 is convicted
under Section 11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a
local ordinance or a similar out-of-state offense, the

HB4075 - 10 - LRB097 16897 HEP 62085 b
Secretary of State shall revoke the driving privileges of that
person. One year after the date of revocation, and upon
application, the Secretary of State may, if satisfied that the
person applying will not endanger the public safety or welfare,
issue a restricted driving permit granting the privilege of
driving a motor vehicle only between the hours of 5 a.m. and 9
p.m. or as otherwise provided by this Section for a period of
one year. After this one year period, and upon reapplication
for a license as provided in Section 6-106, upon payment of the
appropriate reinstatement fee provided under paragraph (b) of
Section 6-118, the Secretary of State, in his discretion, may
reinstate the petitioner's driver's license and driving
privileges, or extend the restricted driving permit as many
times as the Secretary of State deems appropriate, by
additional periods of not more than 12 months each.
(2) If a person's license or permit is revoked or
suspended due to 2 or more convictions of violating Section
11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a local
ordinance or a similar out-of-state offense, or Section 9-3
of the Criminal Code of 1961, where the use of alcohol or
other drugs is recited as an element of the offense, or a
similar out-of-state offense, or a combination of these
offenses, arising out of separate occurrences, that
person, if issued a restricted driving permit, may not
operate a vehicle unless it has been equipped with an
ignition interlock device as defined in Section 1-129.1.

HB4075 - 11 - LRB097 16897 HEP 62085 b

11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a local
ordinance or a similar out-of-state offense, or
Section 9-3 of the Criminal Code of 1961, where the use
of alcohol or other drugs is recited as an element of
the offense, or a similar out-of-state offense; or

under Section 11-501.1; or

device as defined in Section 1-129.1.
(4) The person issued a permit conditioned upon the use
of an interlock device must pay to the Secretary of State
DUI Administration Fund an amount not to exceed $30 per
month. The Secretary shall establish by rule the amount and
the procedures, terms, and conditions relating to these
fees.
(5) If the restricted driving permit is issued for
employment purposes, then the prohibition against driving
a vehicle that is not equipped with an ignition interlock
device does not apply to the operation of an occupational

HB4075 - 12 - LRB097 16897 HEP 62085 b
vehicle owned or leased by that person's employer when used
solely for employment purposes.
(6) A restricted driving permit issued under this
Section shall be subject to cancellation, revocation, and
suspension by the Secretary of State in like manner and for
like cause as a driver's license issued under this Code may
be cancelled, revoked, or suspended; except that a
conviction upon one or more offenses against laws or
ordinances regulating the movement of traffic shall be
deemed sufficient cause for the revocation, suspension, or
cancellation of a restricted driving permit.
(d-5) The revocation of the license, permit, or driving
privileges of a person convicted of a third or subsequent
violation of Section 6-303 of this Code committed while his or
her driver's license, permit, or privilege was revoked because
of a violation of Section 9-3 of the Criminal Code of 1961,
relating to the offense of reckless homicide, or a similar
provision of a law of another state, is permanent. The
Secretary may not, at any time, issue a license or permit to
that person.
(e) This Section is subject to the provisions of the Driver
License Compact.
(f) Any revocation imposed upon any person under
subsections 2 and 3 of paragraph (b) that is in effect on

Secretary of State may rescind or withhold the entry of the
order of suspension or revocation, as the case may be, provided
that a certified copy of a stay order of a court is filed with
the Secretary of State. If the conviction is affirmed on
appeal, the date of the conviction shall relate back to the

HB4075 - 23 - LRB097 16897 HEP 62085 b
time the original judgment of conviction was entered and the 6
month limitation prescribed shall not apply.
(c) 1. Upon suspending or revoking the driver's license or
permit of any person as authorized in this Section, the
Secretary of State shall immediately notify the person in
writing of the revocation or suspension. The notice to be
deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, to the

2. If the Secretary of State suspends the driver's

this Section, a person's privilege to operate a vehicle as
an occupation shall not be suspended, provided an affidavit
is properly completed, the appropriate fee received, and a
permit issued prior to the effective date of the

driving privileges shall be suspended by the Secretary of
State. Any driver prior to operating a vehicle for
occupational purposes only must submit the affidavit on
forms to be provided by the Secretary of State setting
forth the facts of the person's occupation. The affidavit
shall also state the number of offenses committed while
operating a vehicle in connection with the driver's regular
occupation. The affidavit shall be accompanied by the

of this Code, the Secretary of State shall either rescind
or continue an order of revocation or shall substitute an
order of suspension; or, good cause appearing therefor,
rescind, continue, change, or extend the order of
suspension. If the Secretary of State does not rescind the
order, the Secretary may upon application, to relieve undue
hardship (as defined by the rules of the Secretary of
State), issue a restricted driving permit granting the
privilege of driving a motor vehicle between the

HB4075 - 25 - LRB097 16897 HEP 62085 b
petitioner's residence and petitioner's place of
employment or within the scope of the petitioner's
employment related duties, or to allow the petitioner to
transport himself or herself, or a family member of the
petitioner's household to a medical facility, to receive
necessary medical care, to allow the petitioner to
transport himself or herself to and from alcohol or drug
remedial or rehabilitative activity recommended by a
licensed service provider, or to allow the petitioner to
transport himself or herself or a family member of the
petitioner's household to classes, as a student, at an
accredited educational institution, or to allow the
petitioner to transport children, elderly persons, or
disabled persons who do not hold driving privileges and are
living in the petitioner's household to and from daycare.
The petitioner must demonstrate that no alternative means
of transportation is reasonably available and that the
petitioner will not endanger the public safety or welfare.
Those multiple offenders identified in subdivision (b)4 of
Section 6-208 of this Code, however, shall not be eligible
for the issuance of a restricted driving permit.
(A) If a person's license or permit is revoked or
suspended due to 2 or more convictions of violating
Section 11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a
local ordinance or a similar out-of-state offense, or
Section 9-3 of the Criminal Code of 1961, where the use

HB4075 - 26 - LRB097 16897 HEP 62085 b
of alcohol or other drugs is recited as an element of
the offense, or a similar out-of-state offense, or a
combination of these offenses, arising out of separate
occurrences, that person, if issued a restricted
driving permit, may not operate a vehicle unless it has
been equipped with an ignition interlock device as
defined in Section 1-129.1.
(B) If a person's license or permit is revoked or
suspended 2 or more times within a 10 year period due
to any combination of:
(i) a single conviction of violating Section
11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a
local ordinance or a similar out-of-state offense
or Section 9-3 of the Criminal Code of 1961, where
the use of alcohol or other drugs is recited as an
element of the offense, or a similar out-of-state
offense; or
(ii) a statutory summary suspension or
revocation under Section 11-501.1; or
(iii) a suspension under Section 6-203.1;
arising out of separate occurrences; that person, if

vehicle unless it has been equipped with an ignition
interlock device as defined in Section 1-129.1.
(C) The person issued a permit conditioned upon the
use of an ignition interlock device must pay to the

HB4075 - 27 - LRB097 16897 HEP 62085 b
Secretary of State DUI Administration Fund an amount
not to exceed $30 per month. The Secretary shall
establish by rule the amount and the procedures, terms,
and conditions relating to these fees.
(D) If the restricted driving permit is issued for
employment purposes, then the prohibition against
operating a motor vehicle that is not equipped with an
ignition interlock device does not apply to the
operation of an occupational vehicle owned or leased by
that person's employer when used solely for employment
purposes.
(E) In each case the Secretary may issue a
restricted driving permit for a period deemed
appropriate, except that all permits shall expire
within one year from the date of issuance. The
Secretary may not, however, issue a restricted driving
permit to any person whose current revocation is the
result of a second or subsequent conviction for a
violation of Section 11-501 of this Code or a similar
provision of a local ordinance or any similar
out-of-state offense, or Section 9-3 of the Criminal
Code of 1961, where the use of alcohol or other drugs
is recited as an element of the offense, or any similar
out-of-state offense, or any combination of those
offenses, until the expiration of at least one year
from the date of the revocation. A restricted driving

HB4075 - 28 - LRB097 16897 HEP 62085 b
permit issued under this Section shall be subject to
cancellation, revocation, and suspension by the
Secretary of State in like manner and for like cause as
a driver's license issued under this Code may be
cancelled, revoked, or suspended; except that a
conviction upon one or more offenses against laws or
ordinances regulating the movement of traffic shall be
deemed sufficient cause for the revocation,
suspension, or cancellation of a restricted driving
permit. The Secretary of State may, as a condition to
the issuance of a restricted driving permit, require
the applicant to participate in a designated driver
remedial or rehabilitative program. The Secretary of
State is authorized to cancel a restricted driving
permit if the permit holder does not successfully
complete the program.
(c-3) In the case of a suspension under paragraph 43 of
subsection (a), reports received by the Secretary of State
under this Section shall, except during the actual time the
suspension is in effect, be privileged information and for use
only by the courts, police officers, prosecuting authorities,
the driver licensing administrator of any other state, the
Secretary of State, or the parent or legal guardian of a driver
under the age of 18. However, beginning January 1, 2008, if the
person is a CDL holder, the suspension shall also be made
available to the driver licensing administrator of any other

HB4075 - 29 - LRB097 16897 HEP 62085 b
state, the U.S. Department of Transportation, and the affected
driver or motor carrier or prospective motor carrier upon
request.
(c-4) In the case of a suspension under paragraph 43 of
subsection (a), the Secretary of State shall notify the person
by mail that his or her driving privileges and driver's license
will be suspended one month after the date of the mailing of
the notice.
(c-5) The Secretary of State may, as a condition of the
reissuance of a driver's license or permit to an applicant
whose driver's license or permit has been suspended before he
or she reached the age of 21 years pursuant to any of the
provisions of this Section, require the applicant to
participate in a driver remedial education course and be
retested under Section 6-109 of this Code.
(d) This Section is subject to the provisions of the
Drivers License Compact.
(e) The Secretary of State shall not issue a restricted
driving permit to a person under the age of 16 years whose
driving privileges have been suspended or revoked under any
provisions of this Code.
(f) In accordance with 49 C.F.R. 384, the Secretary of
State may not issue a restricted driving permit for the
operation of a commercial motor vehicle to a person holding a
CDL whose driving privileges have been suspended, revoked,
cancelled, or disqualified under any provisions of this Code.

Sec. 11-1301.3. Unauthorized use of parking places
reserved for persons with disabilities.
(a) It shall be prohibited to park any motor vehicle which
is not properly displaying registration plates or decals issued
to a person with disabilities, as defined by Section 1-159.1,
pursuant to Sections 3-616, 11-1301.1 or 11-1301.2, or to a
disabled veteran pursuant to Section 3-609 of this Act, as
evidence that the vehicle is operated by or for a person with
disabilities or disabled veteran, in any parking place,
including any private or public offstreet parking facility,
specifically reserved, by the posting of an official sign as
designated under Section 11-301, for motor vehicles displaying
such registration plates. It shall be prohibited to park any
motor vehicle in a designated access aisle adjacent to any
parking place specifically reserved for persons with
disabilities, by the posting of an official sign as designated
under Section 11-301, for motor vehicles displaying such
registration plates. When using the parking privileges for
persons with disabilities, the parking decal or device must be
displayed properly in the vehicle where it is clearly visible

HB4075 - 31 - LRB097 16897 HEP 62085 b
to law enforcement personnel, either hanging from the rearview
mirror or placed on the dashboard of the vehicle in clear view.
Disability license plates and parking decals and devices are
not transferable from person to person. Proper usage of the
disability license plate or parking decal or device requires
the authorized holder to be present and enter or exit the
vehicle at the time the parking privileges are being used. It
is a violation of this Section to park in a space reserved for
a person with disabilities if the authorized holder of the
disability license plate or parking decal or device does not
enter or exit the vehicle at the time the parking privileges
are being used. Any motor vehicle properly displaying a
disability license plate or a parking decal or device
containing the International symbol of access issued to persons
with disabilities by any local authority, state, district,
territory or foreign country shall be recognized by State and
local authorities as a valid license plate or device and
receive the same parking privileges as residents of this State.
(a-1) An individual with a vehicle displaying disability
license plates or a parking decal or device issued to a
qualified person with a disability under Sections 3-616,
11-1301.1, or 11-1301.2 or to a disabled veteran under Section
3-609 is in violation of this Section if (i) the person using
the disability license plate or parking decal or device is not
the authorized holder of the disability license plate or
parking decal or device or is not transporting the authorized

HB4075 - 32 - LRB097 16897 HEP 62085 b
holder of the disability license plate or parking decal or
device to or from the parking location and (ii) the person uses
the disability license plate or parking decal or device to
exercise any privileges granted through the disability license
plate or parking decals or devices under this Code.
(b) Any person or local authority owning or operating any
public or private offstreet parking facility may, after
notifying the police or sheriff's department, remove or cause
to be removed to the nearest garage or other place of safety
any vehicle parked within a stall or space reserved for use by
a person with disabilities which does not display person with
disabilities registration plates or a special decal or device
as required under this Section.
(c) Any person found guilty of violating the provisions of
subsection (a) shall be fined $300 $250 in addition to any
costs or charges connected with the removal or storage of any
motor vehicle authorized under this Section; but
municipalities by ordinance may impose a fine up to $350 and
shall display signs indicating the fine imposed. If the amount
of the fine is subsequently changed, the municipality shall
change the sign to indicate the current amount of the fine. It
shall not be a defense to a charge under this Section that
either the sign posted pursuant to this Section or the intended
accessible parking place does not comply with the technical
requirements of Section 11-301, Department regulations, or
local ordinance if a reasonable person would be made aware by

HB4075 - 33 - LRB097 16897 HEP 62085 b
the sign or notice on or near the parking place that the place
is reserved for a person with disabilities.
(c-1) Any person found guilty of violating the provisions
of subsection (a-1) a first time shall be fined $600 $500. Any
person found guilty of violating subsection (a-1) a second time
shall be fined $750. Any person found guilty of violating
subsection (a-1) a third or subsequent time shall be fined
$1,000. The circuit clerk shall distribute 50% of the fine
imposed on any person who is found guilty of or pleads guilty
to violating this Section, including any person placed on court
supervision for violating this Section, to the law enforcement
agency that issued the citation or made the arrest. If more
than one law enforcement agency is responsible for issuing the
citation or making the arrest, the 50% of the fine imposed
shall be shared equally. If an officer of the Secretary of
State Department of Police arrested a person for a violation of
this Section, 50% of the fine imposed shall be deposited into
the Secretary of State Police Services Fund.
(d) Local authorities shall impose fines as established in
subsections (c) and (c-1) for violations of this Section.
(e) As used in this Section, "authorized holder" means an
individual issued a disability license plate under Section
3-616 of this Code, an individual issued a parking decal or
device under Section 11-1301.2 of this Code, or an individual
issued a disabled veteran's license plate under Section 3-609
of this Code.

HB4075 - 34 - LRB097 16897 HEP 62085 b
(f) Any person who commits a violation of subsection (a-1)
shall may have his or her driving privileges suspended or
revoked by the Secretary of State for a period of time
determined by the Secretary of State. The Secretary of State
may also suspend or revoke the disability license plates or
parking decal or device for a period of time determined by the
Secretary of State.
(g) Any police officer may seize the parking decal or
device from any person who commits a violation of this Section.
Any police officer may seize the disability license plate upon
authorization from the Secretary of State. Any police officer
may request that the Secretary of State revoke the parking
decal or device or the disability license plate of any person
who commits a violation of this Section.
