Sec. 3-805.10. Autonomous vehicles.
(a) As used in this Section:
"Automated driving system" means a motor vehicle's

performing the entire dynamic driving task on a sustained
basis, regardless of whether the system is limited to a
specific operational design domain, in a reasonably safe

"Driver" means an individual person who has a valid
driver's license issued under this Code or another recognized
jurisdiction.
"Dynamic driving task" means the operation and tactical
aspects of driving or operating a motor vehicle. "Dynamic
driving task" does not include the strategic aspects, such as

HB5192 - 2 - LRB100 18555 LNS 33774 b
determining destinations or routes, of operating a motor
vehicle.
"Level 3 automated driving system" means the driving
mode-specific performance by an automated driving system of all
aspects of the dynamic driving task with the expectation that
the human driver will respond appropriately to a request to
intervene.
"Level 4 automated driving system" means the driving
mode-specific performance by an automated driving system of all
aspects of the dynamic driving task, even if a human driver
does not respond appropriately to a request to intervene.
"Level 5 automated driving system" means the full-time
performance by an automated driving system of all aspects of
the dynamic driving task under all roadway and environmental
conditions that can be managed by a human driver.
(b) The Secretary shall develop a unique registration plate
to identify an autonomous vehicle of 12,000 pounds or less. The
unique registration plate shall, in accordance with the
registration fees based on weight set forth in Section 3-815 of
this Code, be issued or renewed on an annual basis.
(c) Prior to the issuance of any registration to an
