Illinois Compiled Statutes

Information maintained by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

    (a-4) If an applicant for a driver's license or instruction permit has a current identification card issued by the Secretary of State, the Secretary may require the applicant to utilize the same residence address and name on the identification card, driver's license, and instruction permit records maintained by the Secretary. The Secretary may promulgate rules to implement this provision.

To assist the State in identifying these veterans and delivering these vital services and benefits, the Secretary of State is authorized to issue drivers' licenses with the word "veteran" appearing on the face of the licenses. This authorization is predicated on the unique status of veterans. The Secretary may not issue any other driver's license which identifies an occupation, status, affiliation, hobby, or other unique characteristics of the license holder which is unrelated to the purpose of the driver's license.
    (e-5) Beginning on or before July 1, 2015, the Secretary of State shall designate a space on each original or renewal driver's license where, at the request of the applicant, the word "veteran" shall be placed.

The Secretary is authorized to extend driver's license expiration dates, and assign specific times, dates and locations where these commercial driver's tests shall be conducted.

    (g) The Secretary of State may issue a special restricted license for a period of 48 months to individuals using vision aid arrangements other than standard eyeglasses or contact lenses, allowing the operation of a motor vehicle during nighttime hours. The Secretary of State shall adopt rules defining the terms and conditions by which the individual may obtain and renew this special restricted license. At a minimum, all drivers must meet the following requirements:

a motor vehicle during daylight hours for a period of 12 months using vision aid arrangements other than standard eyeglasses or contact lenses.

    (i) The Secretary of State may issue a special restricted training permit for a period of 6 months to individuals using vision aid arrangements other than standard eyeglasses or contact lenses, allowing the operation of a motor vehicle between sunset and 10:00 p.m. provided the driver is accompanied by a person holding a valid driver's license without nighttime operation restrictions.

An individual who agrees to having his or her name included in the First Person Consent organ and tissue donor registry has given full legal consent to the donation of any of his or her organs or tissue upon his or her death. A brochure explaining this method of executing an anatomical gift must be given to each applicant for issuance or renewal of a driver's license or identification card. The brochure must advise the applicant or licensee (i) that he or she is under no compulsion to have his or her name included in this registry and (ii) that he or she may wish to consult with family, friends, or clergy before doing so.

        (4) An individual may withdraw his or her consent to
    
be listed in the First Person Consent organ and tissue donor registry maintained by the Secretary of State by notifying the Secretary of State in writing, or by any other means approved by the Secretary, of the individual's decision to have his or her name removed from the registry.
        (5) The Secretary of State may undertake additional
    
efforts, including education and awareness activities, to promote organ and tissue donation.
        (6) In the absence of gross negligence or willful
    
misconduct, the Secretary of State and his or her employees are immune from any civil or criminal liability in connection with an individual's consent to be listed in the organ and tissue donor registry.

    (Text of Section before amendment by P.A. 103-210)
    Sec. 6-121. Issuance of confidential drivers' licenses.
    (a) Requirements for use of confidential drivers' licenses. Confidential drivers' licenses may be issued to local, state, and federal government agencies for bona fide law enforcement purposes. The drivers' licenses may be issued with fictitious names and addresses, and may be used only for confidential, investigative, or undercover law enforcement operations. Confidential drivers' licenses may be issued as REAL ID compliant or non-compliant driver's licenses.
    (b) Application procedures for confidential drivers' licenses:
        (1) Applications by local, state, and federal
    
government agencies for confidential drivers' licenses must be made to the Secretary of State Police Department on a form and in a manner prescribed by the Secretary of State Police Department.
        (2) The application form must include information,
    
as specific as possible without compromising investigations or techniques, setting forth the need for the drivers' licenses and the uses to which the licenses will be limited.
        (3) The application form must be signed and verified
    
by the local, state, or federal government agency head or designee.
        (4) Registration information maintained by the
    
Secretary of State Police Department for confidential drivers' licenses must show the fictitious names and addresses on all records subject to public disclosure. All other information concerning these confidential drivers' licenses are exempt from disclosure unless the disclosure is ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction.
    (c) Revocation and cancellation procedures for confidential drivers' licenses:
        (1) The Secretary of State Police Department may
    
revoke or refuse to renew confidential drivers' licenses when they have reasonable cause to believe the licenses are being used for purposes other than those set forth in the application form or authorized by this Section. Confidential drivers' licenses may also be revoked where traffic violation citations have been issued to the driver and subsequent investigation reveals that the issuance of the citations was unrelated to the purposes for which the confidential driver's license was issued. In such cases, the citations and any resulting court orders, convictions, supervisions or other sanctions must be treated by the Secretary of State as though they were issued in relation to the true driver's license of the individual to whom the confidential driver's license was issued.
        (2) A government agency must request cancellation of
    
confidential drivers' licenses that are no longer required for the purposes for which they were issued.
        (3) All revoked confidential drivers' licenses must
    
be promptly returned to the Secretary of State Police Department by the government agency to which they were issued.
