HB4150 Engrossed LRB102 20025 LNS 28838 b
AN ACT concerning transportation.
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
represented in the General Assembly:
Section 5. The Illinois Vehicle Code is amended by
changing Section 3-405.2 as follows:
(625 ILCS 5/3-405.2) (from Ch. 95 1/2, par. 3-405.2)
Sec. 3-405.2. Improper plates. The Secretary of State
shall refuse to issue any license plates bearing a combination
of letters or numbers, or both, which creates a potential
duplication or, in the opinion of the Secretary, (1) would
substantially interfere with plate identification for law
enforcement purposes, (2) is misleading, or (3) creates a
connotation that is offensive to good taste and decency,
including any license plate bearing a reference to an
organization or person included on the Federal Bureau of
Investigation's or United States Department of Homeland
Security's domestic and international terrorist lists.
The Secretary may revoke any such plates issued
previously. Any person who has his or her plates revoked under
this Section may acquire at no charge new plates and any
required stickers of the same category and for the same period
of registration.
