granting the privilege of driving a motor vehicle between the

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

HB5056 Engrossed - 6 - LRB097 19016 HEP 64255 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

HB5056 Engrossed - 7 - LRB097 19016 HEP 64255 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driver's license, permit, or privilege was revoked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

(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

HB5056 Engrossed - 8 - LRB097 19016 HEP 64255 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

HB5056 Engrossed - 9 - LRB097 19016 HEP 64255 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).

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

HB5056 Engrossed - 10 - LRB097 19016 HEP 64255 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.

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

HB5056 Engrossed - 12 - LRB097 19016 HEP 64255 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.

HB5056 Engrossed - 23 - LRB097 19016 HEP 64255 b
appeal, the date of the conviction shall relate back to the

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

HB5056 Engrossed - 25 - LRB097 19016 HEP 64255 b
privilege of driving a motor vehicle between the
petitioner's residence and petitioner's place of
employment or within the scope of the petitioner's

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

HB5056 Engrossed - 26 - LRB097 19016 HEP 64255 b
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.
(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

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

HB5056 Engrossed - 27 - LRB097 19016 HEP 64255 b
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.
(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

HB5056 Engrossed - 28 - LRB097 19016 HEP 64255 b
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 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

HB5056 Engrossed - 29 - LRB097 19016 HEP 64255 b
available to the driver licensing administrator of any other
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,

HB5056 Engrossed - 30 - LRB097 19016 HEP 64255 b
cancelled, or disqualified under any provisions of this Code.

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

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

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

plate or parking decals or devices under this Code.
(a-2) A driver of a vehicle displaying disability license
plates or a parking decal or device issued to a qualified
person with a disability under Section 3-616, 11-1301.1, or

violation of this Section if (i) the person to whom the
disability license plate or parking decal or device was issued
is deceased and (ii) the driver uses the disability license
plate or parking decal or device to exercise any privileges
granted through a disability license plate or parking decal or
device 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 $250 in addition to any costs or

HB5056 Engrossed - 33 - LRB097 19016 HEP 64255 b
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 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 $500. Any
person found guilty of violating subsection (a-1) a second or
subsequent time shall be fined $1,000 $750. Any person who
violates found guilty of violating subsection (a-2) is guilty
of a Class A misdemeanor and (a-1) a third or subsequent time
shall be fined $2,500 $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

or a similar provision of a local ordinance 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. Any person who commits a violation of subsection (a-2)
