1 2. If the Secretary of State suspends the driver's
2 license of a person under subsection 2 of paragraph (a)
3 of this Section, a person's privilege to operate a

13 submit the affidavit on forms to be provided by the
14 Secretary of State setting forth the facts of the
15 person's occupation. The affidavit shall also state the
16 number of offenses committed while operating a vehicle in
17 connection with the driver's regular occupation. The
18 affidavit shall be accompanied by the driver's license.
19 Upon receipt of a properly completed affidavit, the
20 Secretary of State shall issue the driver a permit to
21 operate a vehicle in connection with the driver's regular
22 occupation only. Unless the permit is issued by the
23 Secretary of State prior to the date of suspension, the
24 privilege to drive any motor vehicle shall be suspended
25 as set forth in the notice that was mailed under this
26 Section. If an affidavit is received subsequent to the
27 effective date of this suspension, a permit may be issued
28 for the remainder of the suspension period.
29 The provisions of this subparagraph shall not apply
30 to any driver required to obtain a commercial driver's

33 Section 6-514.
34 Any person who falsely states any fact in the
-19- LRB9103493KSgcam02
1 affidavit required herein shall be guilty of perjury
2 under Section 6-302 and upon conviction thereof shall
3 have all driving privileges revoked without further
4 rights.
5 3. At the conclusion of a hearing under Section
6 2-118 of this Code, the Secretary of State shall either
7 rescind or continue an order of revocation or shall
8 substitute an order of suspension; or, good cause
9 appearing therefor, rescind, continue, change, or extend
10 the order of suspension. If the Secretary of State does
11 not rescind the order, the Secretary may upon
12 application, to relieve undue hardship, issue a
13 restricted driving permit granting the privilege of
14 driving a motor vehicle between the petitioner's
15 residence and petitioner's place of employment or within
16 the scope of his employment related duties, or to allow
17 transportation for the petitioner, or a household member
18 of the petitioner's family, to receive necessary medical
19 care and if the professional evaluation indicates,
20 provide transportation for alcohol remedial or
21 rehabilitative activity, or for the petitioner to attend
22 classes, as a student, in an accredited educational
23 institution; if the petitioner is able to demonstrate
24 that no alternative means of transportation is reasonably
25 available and the petitioner will not endanger the public
26 safety or welfare. In each case the Secretary may issue a
27 restricted driving permit for a period deemed
28 appropriate, except that all permits shall expire within
29 one year from the date of issuance. A restricted driving
30 permit issued under this Section shall be subject to
31 cancellation, revocation, and suspension by the Secretary
32 of State in like manner and for like cause as a driver's
33 license issued under this Code may be cancelled, revoked,
34 or suspended; except that a conviction upon one or more
-20- LRB9103493KSgcam02
1 offenses against laws or ordinances regulating the
2 movement of traffic shall be deemed sufficient cause for
3 the revocation, suspension, or cancellation of a
4 restricted driving permit. The Secretary of State may, as
5 a condition to the issuance of a restricted driving
6 permit, require the applicant to participate in a
7 designated driver remedial or rehabilitative program. The
8 Secretary of State is authorized to cancel a restricted
9 driving permit if the permit holder does not successfully
10 complete the program.
11 (c-5) The Secretary of State may, as a condition of the
12 reissuance of a driver's license or permit to an applicant
13 under the age of 18 years whose driver's license or permit
14 has been suspended pursuant to any of the provisions of this
15 Section, require the applicant to participate in a driver
16 remedial education course and be retested under Section 6-109
17 of this Code.
18 (d) This Section is subject to the provisions of the
19 Drivers License Compact.
20 (e) The Secretary of State shall not issue a restricted
21 driving permit to a person under the age of 16 years whose
22 driving privileges have been suspended or revoked under any
23 provisions of this Code.

28 Sec. 6-206.1. Judicial Driving Permit. Declaration of
29 Policy. It is hereby declared a policy of the State of
30 Illinois that the driver who is impaired by alcohol, other
31 drug or drugs, or intoxicating compound or compounds is a
32 threat to the public safety and welfare. Therefore, to
33 provide a deterrent to such practice and to remove problem
-21- LRB9103493KSgcam02
1 drivers from the highway, a statutory summary driver's
2 license suspension is appropriate. It is also recognized that
3 driving is a privilege and therefore, that in some cases the
4 granting of limited driving privileges, where consistent with
5 public safety, is warranted during the period of suspension
6 in the form of a judicial driving permit to drive for the
7 purpose of employment, receiving drug treatment or medical
8 care, and educational pursuits, where no alternative means of
9 transportation is available.
10 The following procedures shall apply whenever a first
11 offender is arrested for any offense as defined in Section
12 11-501 or a similar provision of a local ordinance or has
13 refused to submit to a preliminary breath screening test or
14 field sobriety test or tests pursuant to Section 11-501.5:
15 (a) Subsequent to a notification of a statutory summary
16 suspension of driving privileges as provided in Section
17 11-501.1 or 11-501.5, the first offender as defined in
18 Section 11-500 may petition the circuit court of venue for a
19 Judicial Driving Permit, hereinafter referred as a JDP, to
20 relieve undue hardship. The court may issue a court order,
21 pursuant to the criteria contained in this Section, directing
22 the Secretary of State to issue such a JDP to the petitioner.
23 A JDP shall not become effective prior to the 31st day of the
24 original statutory summary suspension and shall always be
25 subject to the following criteria:
26 1. If ordered for the purposes of employment, the
27 JDP shall be only for the purpose of providing the
28 petitioner the privilege of driving a motor vehicle
29 between the petitioner's residence and the petitioner's
30 place of employment and return; or within the scope of
31 the petitioner's employment related duties, shall be
32 effective only during and limited to those specific times
33 and routes actually required to commute or perform the
34 petitioner's employment related duties.
-22- LRB9103493KSgcam02
1 2. The court, by a court order, may also direct the
2 Secretary of State to issue a JDP to allow transportation
3 for the petitioner, or a household member of the
4 petitioner's family, to receive alcohol, drug, or
5 intoxicating compound treatment or medical care, if the
6 petitioner is able to demonstrate that no alternative
7 means of transportation is reasonably available. Such JDP
8 shall be effective only during the specific times
9 actually required to commute.
10 3. The court, by a court order, may also direct the
11 Secretary of State to issue a JDP to allow transportation
12 by the petitioner for educational purposes upon
13 demonstrating that there are no alternative means of
14 transportation reasonably available to accomplish those
15 educational purposes. Such JDP shall be only for the
16 purpose of providing transportation to and from the
17 petitioner's residence and the petitioner's place of
18 educational activity, and only during the specific times
19 and routes actually required to commute or perform the
20 petitioner's educational requirement.
21 4. The Court shall not issue an order granting a
22 JDP to:
23 (i) Any person unless and until the court,
24 after considering the results of a current
25 professional evaluation of the person's alcohol or
26 other drug use by an agency pursuant to Section
27 15-10 of the Alcoholism and Other Drug Abuse and
28 Dependency Act and other appropriate investigation
29 of the person, is satisfied that granting the
30 privilege of driving a motor vehicle on the highways
31 will not endanger the public safety or welfare.
32 (ii) Any person who has been convicted of
33 reckless homicide within the previous 5 years.
34 (iii) Any person whose privilege to operate a
-23- LRB9103493KSgcam02
1 motor vehicle was invalid at the time of arrest for
2 the current violation of Section 11-501, or a
3 similar provision of a local ordinance, except in
4 cases where the cause for a driver's license
5 suspension has been removed at the time a JDP is
6 effective. In any case, should the Secretary of
7 State enter a suspension or revocation of driving
8 privileges pursuant to the provisions of this Code
9 while the JDP is in effect or pending, the Secretary
10 shall take the prescribed action and provide a
11 notice to the person and the court ordering the
12 issuance of the JDP that all driving privileges,
13 including those provided by the issuance of the JDP,
14 have been withdrawn.
15 (iv) Any person under the age of 18 years.
16 (b) Prior to ordering the issuance of a JDP the Court
17 should consider at least, but not be limited to, the
18 following issues:
19 1. Whether the person is employed and no other
20 means of commuting to the place of employment is
21 available or that the person must drive as a condition of
22 employment. The employer shall certify the hours of
23 employment and the need and parameters necessary for
24 driving as a condition to employment.
25 2. Whether the person must drive to secure alcohol
26 or other medical treatment for himself or a family
27 member.
28 3. Whether the person must drive for educational
29 purposes. The educational institution shall certify the
30 person's enrollment in and academic schedule at the
31 institution.
32 4. Whether the person has been repeatedly convicted
33 of traffic violations or involved in motor vehicle
34 accidents to a degree which indicates disrespect for
-24- LRB9103493KSgcam02
1 public safety.
2 5. Whether the person has been convicted of a
3 traffic violation in connection with a traffic accident
4 resulting in the death of any person within the last 5
5 years.
6 6. Whether the person is likely to obey the limited
7 provisions of the JDP.
8 7. Whether the person has any additional traffic
9 violations pending in any court.
10 For purposes of this Section, programs conducting
11 professional evaluations of a person's alcohol, other drug,
12 or intoxicating compound use must report, to the court of
13 venue, using a form prescribed by the Secretary of State. A
14 copy of such evaluations shall be sent to the Secretary of
15 State by the court. However, the evaluation information shall
16 be privileged and only available to courts and to the
17 Secretary of State, but shall not be admissible in the
18 subsequent trial on the underlying charge.
19 (c) The scope of any court order issued for a JDP under
20 this Section shall be limited to the operation of a motor
21 vehicle as provided for in subsection (a) of this Section and
22 shall specify the petitioner's residence, place of employment
23 or location of educational institution, and the scope of job
24 related duties, if relevant. The JDP shall also specify days
25 of the week and specific hours of the day when the petitioner
26 is able to exercise the limited privilege of operating a
27 motor vehicle. If the Petitioner, who has been granted a JDP,
28 is issued a citation for a traffic related offense, including
29 operating a motor vehicle outside the limitations prescribed
30 in the JDP or a violation of Section 6-303, or is convicted
31 of any such an offense during the term of the JDP, the court
32 shall consider cancellation of the limited driving permit.
33 In any case, if the Petitioner commits an offense, as defined
34 in Section 11-501, or a similar provision of a local
-25- LRB9103493KSgcam02
1 ordinance, as evidenced by the issuance of a Uniform Traffic
2 Ticket, the JDP shall be forwarded by the court of venue to
3 the court ordering the issuance of the JDP, for cancellation.
4 The court shall notify the Secretary of State of any such
5 cancellation.
6 (d) The Secretary of State shall, upon receiving a court
7 order from the court of venue, issue a JDP to a successful
8 Petitioner under this Section. Such court order form shall
9 also contain a notification, which shall be sent to the
10 Secretary of State, providing the name, driver's license
11 number and legal address of the successful petitioner, and
12 the full and detailed description of the limitations of the
13 JDP. This information shall be available only to the courts,
14 police officers, and the Secretary of State, except during
15 the actual period the JDP is valid, during which time it
16 shall be a public record. The Secretary of State shall design
17 and furnish to the courts an official court order form to be
18 used by the courts when directing the Secretary of State to
19 issue a JDP.
20 Any submitted court order that contains insufficient data
21 or fails to comply with this Code shall not be utilized for
22 JDP issuance or entered to the driver record but shall be
23 returned to the issuing court indicating why the JDP cannot
24 be so entered. A notice of this action shall also be sent to
25 the JDP petitioner by the Secretary of State.
26 (e) The circuit court of venue may conduct the judicial
27 hearing, as provided in Section 2-118.1, and the JDP hearing
28 provided in this Section, concurrently. Such concurrent
29 hearing shall proceed in the court in the same manner as in
30 other civil proceedings.

29 provision of a local ordinance; or

25 11-500 of this Code, and is not convicted of a violation of
26 Section 11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a local

29 person is arrested for any offense as defined in Section
30 11-501 or a similar provision of a local ordinance:
31 Upon receipt of the sworn report from the law enforcement
32 officer, the Secretary of State shall confirm the statutory
33 summary suspension by mailing a notice of the effective date
34 of the suspension to the person and the court of venue.

10 (625 ILCS 5/11-501.5) (from Ch. 95 1/2, par. 11-501.5)
11 Sec. 11-501.5. Preliminary breath screening test and
12 field sobriety tests.
13 (a) Any person who drives or is in actual physical
14 control of a motor vehicle within this State shall be deemed
15 to have given consent to providing If a law enforcement
16 officer has reasonable suspicion to believe that a person is
17 violating or has violated Section 11-501 or a similar
18 provision of a local ordinance, the officer, prior to an
19 arrest, may request the person to provide a sample of his or
20 her breath for a preliminary breath screening test using a
21 portable device approved by the Department of Public Health
22 and to performing any field sobriety test or tests approved
23 by the Illinois Law Enforcement Training Standards Board if
24 the law enforcement officer has reasonable suspicion based on
25 specific and articulable facts and rationale inferences from
26 those facts to believe that the person is violating or has
27 violated Section 11-501 or a similar provision of a local
28 ordinance. The results of the field sobriety tests or the
29 this preliminary breath screening test may be used by the law
30 enforcement officer for the purpose of assisting with the
31 determination of whether to require a chemical test as
32 authorized under Sections 11-501.1 and 11-501.2, and the
33 appropriate type of test to request. Any chemical test
-46- LRB9103493KSgcam02
1 authorized under Sections 11-501.1 and 11-501.2 may be
2 requested by the officer regardless of the result of the
3 field sobriety tests and preliminary breath screening test,
4 if probable cause for an arrest exists. The result of a
5 preliminary breath screening test may be used by the
6 defendant as evidence in any administrative or court
7 proceeding involving a violation of Section 11-501 or
8 11-501.1 and may be used by the State as evidence in any
9 administrative or court proceeding to establish probable
10 cause for a violation of Section 11-501 or as a reason to
11 request a test pursuant to Section 11-501.1. The result of a
12 field sobriety test may be used by the defendant or State in
13 any administrative or court proceeding.
14 For the purposes of this Section, a law enforcement
15 officer of this State who is investigating a person for any
16 offense set forth in Section 11-501 may travel to an
17 adjoining state to which the person has been transported for
18 medical care to complete an investigation and request that
19 the person submit to the test or tests set forth in this
20 Section.
21 (b) A law enforcement officer who has reasonable
22 suspicion based on specific and articulable facts and
23 rational inferences from those facts to believe that a person
24 is violating or has violated Section 11-501 of this Code or a
25 similar provision of a local ordinance shall administer to
26 that person all field sobriety tests approved by the Illinois
27 Law Enforcement Training Standards Board. The performance of
28 any field sobriety test may be dispensed with where, in the
29 judgment of the law enforcement officer administering the
30 field sobriety tests, the performance of that test would
31 jeopardize the safety of any person, is not advisable due to
32 weather, traffic or terrain conditions, or is not practical
33 or appropriate due to a disability or medical condition of
34 the person subject to taking the test. If the law
-47- LRB9103493KSgcam02
1 enforcement officer has probable cause to believe the person
2 is in violation of Section 11-501 or a similar provision of a
3 local ordinance, the law enforcement officer may, in his or
4 her discretion, administer the field sobriety tests but is
5 not required to do so. The administration of the preliminary
6 breath screening test shall at all times be at the discretion
7 of the law enforcement officer.
8 (c) A person shall be excused from performing a test if
9 he or she has a disability or medical condition that prevents
10 the person from performing the test. A person who has been
11 requested to submit to any test and who has failed to do so
12 shall have the burden of proving by a preponderance of the
13 evidence the existence of the disability or medical condition
14 that prevented him or her from performing the requested test.
15 (d) A person is excused from performing a test or tests
16 under this Section if the person, although not under arrest,
17 volunteers for and takes a chemical test or tests of blood,
18 breath, or urine pursuant to Section 11-501.1. A law
19 enforcement officer informing a person of his or her rights
20 under this Section shall inform the person that he or she has
21 the option of foregoing a field sobriety test or a
22 preliminary breath screening test and instead take the
23 chemical test a tests pursuant to Section 11-501.1 but that
24 the person is not required to do so at that time and that the
25 person will not be subject to any penalties for failure to
26 volunteer for the chemical test and tests.
27 (e) Unless the law enforcement officer has reason to
28 believe that the provisions of subsection (c) of Section
29 6-203.1 apply, a person requested to submit to any test as
30 provided in subsection (b) of this Section shall be warned by
31 the law enforcement officer requesting the test prior to
32 administering the test or tests that a refusal to submit to
33 any test will result in the statutory summary suspension of
34 the person's privilege to operate a motor vehicle as provided
-48- LRB9103493KSgcam02
1 in Section 6-208.1 of this Code.
2 (f) If a person refuses to perform any of the field
3 sobriety tests or to take a preliminary breath screening test
4 requested by a law enforcement officer, the law enforcement
5 officer shall immediately submit a sworn report to the
6 Secretary of State, certifying which test or tests was or
7 were requested under this Section and which test or tests the
8 person refused to perform.
9 (g) Upon receipt of the sworn report of a law
10 enforcement officer submitted under subsection (f), the
11 Secretary of State, except as set forth in subsection (c) of
12 Section 6-203.1, shall enter the statutory summary suspension
13 for the periods specified in Section 6-208.1, and effective
14 as provided in subsection (i). If the person is a first
15 offender as defined in Section 11-500 of this Code, and is
16 not convicted of a violation of Section 11-501 of this Code
17 or a similar provision of a local ordinance, then reports
18 received by the Secretary of State under this Section shall,
19 except during the actual time the statutory summary
20 suspension is in effect, be privileged information and for
21 use only by the courts, police officers, prosecuting
22 authorities, or the Secretary of State. If the provisions of
23 subsection (c) of Section 6-203.1 apply, the Secretary of
24 State shall not suspend the person's driving privileges but
25 shall ensure that the failure of the person to submit to a
26 preliminary breath screening test or field sobriety test or
27 tests is entered on the person's driving record.
28 (h) Unless the law enforcement officer has reason to
29 believe that the provisions of subsection (c) of Section
30 6-203.1 apply, the law enforcement officer submitting the
31 sworn report under subsection (f) shall serve immediate
32 notice of the statutory summary suspension on the person and
33 the suspension shall be effective as provided in subsection
34 (i). The officer shall confiscate any Illinois driver's
-49- LRB9103493KSgcam02
1 license or permit on the person at the time of the person's
2 refusal to take any test pursuant to this Section or of the
3 person's arrest for violation of Section 11-501 or similar
4 ordinance. If the person has a valid driver's license or
5 permit, the officer shall issue the person a receipt, in a
6 form prescribed by the Secretary of State, that will allow
7 that person to drive during the periods provided for in
8 subsection (i). If the person has been arrested or issued a
9 citation for a violation of this Code or a provision of a
10 local ordinance, the officer shall immediately forward the
11 driver's license or permit to the circuit court of venue
12 along with the sworn report provided for in subsection (f).
13 (i) The statutory summary suspension referred to in this
14 Section shall take effect on the 46th day following the date
15 the notice of the statutory summary suspension was given to
16 the person.
17 (j) The following procedure shall apply whenever (i) a
18 person is arrested for any offense as defined in Section
19 11-501 or a similar provision of a local ordinance, or (ii) a
20 person has refused to submit to a preliminary screening
21 breath test or to a field sobriety test or tests requested
22 pursuant to this Section: Upon receipt of the sworn report
23 from the law enforcement officer, the Secretary of State,
24 unless the provisions of subsection (c) of Section 6-203.1
25 apply, shall confirm the statutory summary suspension by
26 mailing a notice of the effective date of the suspension to
27 the person and to the court of venue. If the sworn report is
28 defective because it does not contain sufficient information
29 or it has been completed in error, the confirmation of the
30 statutory summary suspension shall not be mailed to the
31 person or entered to the record; instead, the sworn report
32 shall be forwarded to the court of venue with a copy returned
33 to the issuing agency identifying any defect.
34 (k) When a person's refusal to submit to or complete a
-50- LRB9103493KSgcam02
1 preliminary breath screening test or field sobriety test or
2 tests and specific and articulable facts and the inferences
3 from those facts give rise to a rational basis for concluding
4 the continued operation of the vehicle by the person would
5 constitute a clear and present danger to any person, the law
6 enforcement officer may secure the person's vehicle for up to
7 6 hours. For the purpose of this subsection, "secure" means
8 that the officer may: (i) direct the person not to drive;
9 (ii) take possession of the person's vehicle keys, or (iii)
10 take other reasonable steps to ensure the person does not
11 operate the vehicle. The law enforcement officer may release
12 the vehicle to a person other than the driver if: (i) that
13 other person is the owner or renter of the vehicle or the
14 driver is owner of the vehicle and gives permission to the
15 other person to operate the vehicle and (ii) the other person
16 possesses a valid operator's license and would not, as
17 determined by the law enforcement officer, either have a lack
18 of ability to operate the vehicle in a safe manner or be in
19 violation of this Code.

21 Section 10. The Unified Code of Corrections is amended
22 by changing Section 5-6-1 as follows:
23 (730 ILCS 5/5-6-1) (from Ch. 38, par. 1005-6-1)
24 Sec. 5-6-1. Sentences of Probation and of Conditional
25 Discharge and Disposition of Supervision. The General
26 Assembly finds that in order to protect the public, the
27 criminal justice system must compel compliance with the
28 conditions of probation by responding to violations with
29 swift, certain and fair punishments and intermediate
30 sanctions. The Chief Judge of each circuit shall adopt a
31 system of structured, intermediate sanctions for violations
32 of the terms and conditions of a sentence of probation,
-51- LRB9103493KSgcam02
1 conditional discharge or disposition of supervision.
2 (a) Except where specifically prohibited by other
3 provisions of this Code, the court shall impose a sentence of
4 probation or conditional discharge upon an offender unless,
5 having regard to the nature and circumstance of the offense,
6 and to the history, character and condition of the offender,
7 the court is of the opinion that:
8 (1) his imprisonment or periodic imprisonment is
9 necessary for the protection of the public; or
10 (2) probation or conditional discharge would
11 deprecate the seriousness of the offender's conduct and
12 would be inconsistent with the ends of justice.
13 The court shall impose as a condition of a sentence of
14 probation, conditional discharge, or supervision, that the
15 probation agency may invoke any sanction from the list of
16 intermediate sanctions adopted by the chief judge of the
17 circuit court for violations of the terms and conditions of
18 the sentence of probation, conditional discharge, or
19 supervision, subject to the provisions of Section 5-6-4 of
20 this Act.
21 (b) The court may impose a sentence of conditional
22 discharge for an offense if the court is of the opinion that
23 neither a sentence of imprisonment nor of periodic
24 imprisonment nor of probation supervision is appropriate.
25 (c) The court may, upon a plea of guilty or a
26 stipulation by the defendant of the facts supporting the
27 charge or a finding of guilt, defer further proceedings and
28 the imposition of a sentence, and enter an order for
29 supervision of the defendant, if the defendant is not charged
30 with a Class A misdemeanor, as defined by the following
31 provisions of the Criminal Code of 1961: Sections 12-3.2;
32 12-15; 31-1; 31-6; 31-7; subsections (b) and (c) of Section
33 21-1; paragraph (1) through (5), (8), (10), and (11) of
34 subsection (a) of Section 24-1; and Section 1 of the Boarding
-52- LRB9103493KSgcam02
1 Aircraft With Weapon Act; or a felony. If the defendant is
2 not barred from receiving an order for supervision as
3 provided in this subsection, the court may enter an order for
4 supervision after considering the circumstances of the
5 offense, and the history, character and condition of the
6 offender, if the court is of the opinion that:
7 (1) the offender is not likely to commit further
8 crimes;
9 (2) the defendant and the public would be best
10 served if the defendant were not to receive a criminal
11 record; and
12 (3) in the best interests of justice an order of
13 supervision is more appropriate than a sentence otherwise
14 permitted under this Code.
15 (d) The provisions of paragraph (c) shall not apply to a
16 defendant charged with violating Section 11-501 of the
17 Illinois Vehicle Code or a similar provision of a local
18 ordinance when the defendant has previously been:
19 (1) convicted for a violation of Section 11-501 of
20 the Illinois Vehicle Code or a similar provision of a
21 local ordinance or out-of-state jurisdiction; or
22 (2) assigned supervision for a violation of Section
23 11-501 of the Illinois Vehicle Code or a similar
24 provision of a local ordinance or out-of-state
25 jurisdiction; or
26 (3) pleaded guilty to or stipulated to the facts
27 supporting a charge or a finding of guilty to a violation
28 of Section 11-503 of the Illinois Vehicle Code or a
29 similar provision of a local ordinance or out-of-state
30 jurisdiction, and the plea or stipulation was the result
31 of a plea agreement.
32 The court shall consider the statement of the prosecuting
33 authority with regard to the standards set forth in this
34 Section.
-53- LRB9103493KSgcam02
1 (e) The provisions of paragraph (c) shall not apply to a
2 defendant charged with violating Section 16A-3 of the
3 Criminal Code of 1961 if said defendant has within the last 5
4 years been:
5 (1) convicted for a violation of Section 16A-3 of
6 the Criminal Code of 1961; or
7 (2) assigned supervision for a violation of Section
8 16A-3 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or similar provision
9 of an out-of-state jurisdiction.
10 The court shall consider the statement of the prosecuting
11 authority with regard to the standards set forth in this
12 Section.
13 (f) The provisions of paragraph (c) shall not apply to a
14 defendant charged with violating Sections 15-111, 15-112,
15 15-301, paragraph (b) of Section 6-104, Section 11-605, or
16 Section 11-1414 of the Illinois Vehicle Code or a similar
17 provision of a local ordinance or out-of-state jurisdiction.
18 (g) Except as otherwise provided in paragraph (i) of
19 this Section, the provisions of paragraph (c) shall not apply
20 to a defendant charged with violating Section 3-707, 3-708,
21 3-710, or 5-401.3 of the Illinois Vehicle Code or a similar
22 provision of a local ordinance if the defendant has within
23 the last 5 years been:
24 (1) convicted for a violation of Section 3-707,
25 3-708, 3-710, or 5-401.3 of the Illinois Vehicle Code or
26 a similar provision of a local ordinance or out-of-state
27 jurisdiction; or
28 (2) assigned supervision for a violation of Section
29 3-707, 3-708, 3-710, or 5-401.3 of the Illinois Vehicle
30 Code or a similar provision of a local ordinance or
31 out-of-state jurisdiction.
32 The court shall consider the statement of the prosecuting
33 authority with regard to the standards set forth in this
34 Section.

8 approved by the court under standards set by the
9 Conference of Chief Circuit Judges. The accused shall be
10 responsible for payment of any traffic safety program
11 fees. If the accused fails to file a certificate of
12 successful completion on or before the termination date
13 of the supervision order, the supervision shall be
14 summarily revoked and conviction entered. The provisions
15 of Supreme Court Rule 402 relating to pleas of guilty do
16 not apply in cases when a defendant enters a guilty plea
17 under this provision; or
18 (2) if the defendant has previously been sentenced
19 under the provisions of paragraph (c) on or after January
20 1, 1998 for any serious traffic offense as defined in
21 Section 1-187.001 of the Illinois Vehicle Code.
22 (i) The provisions of paragraph (c) shall not apply to a
23 defendant charged with violating Section 3-707 of the
24 Illinois Vehicle Code or a similar provision of a local
