1 AN ACT to amend the Illinois Vehicle Code by changing
2 Sections 3-405 and 3-416.
3 Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
4 represented in the General Assembly:
5 Section 5. The Illinois Vehicle Code is amended by
6 changing Sections 3-405 and 3-416 as follows:
7 (625 ILCS 5/3-405) (from Ch. 95 1/2, par. 3-405)
8 Sec. 3-405. Application for registration.
9 (a) Every owner of a vehicle subject to registration
10 under this Code shall make application to the Secretary of
11 State for the registration of such vehicle upon the
12 appropriate form or forms furnished by the Secretary. Every
13 such application shall bear the signature of the owner
14 written with pen and ink and contain:
15 1. The name, bona fide residence (except as
16 otherwise provided in this paragraph 1) and mail address
17 of the owner or business address of the owner if a firm,
18 association or corporation. If the mailing address is a
19 post office box number, the address listed on the driver
20 license record may be used to verify residence. A police
21 officer, a deputy sheriff, an elected sheriff, a law
22 enforcement officer for the Department of State Police,
23 or a fire investigator may elect to furnish the address
24 of the headquarters of the governmental entity or police
25 district where he or she works instead of his or her
26 residence address, in which case that address shall be
27 deemed to be his or her residence address for all
28 purposes under this Act. In this paragraph 1: (A)
29 "police officer" has the meaning ascribed to "policeman"
30 in Section 10-3-1 of the Illinois Municipal Code; (B)
31 "deputy sheriff" means a deputy sheriff appointed under
-2- LRB9105351KStm
1 Section 3-6008 of the Counties Code; (c) "elected
2 sheriff" means a sheriff commissioned pursuant to Section
3 3-6001 of the Counties Code; and (D) "fire investigator"
4 means a person classified as a peace officer under the
5 Peace Officer Fire Investigation Act.
6 2. A description of the vehicle, including such
7 information as is required in an application for a
8 certificate of title, determined under such standard
9 rating as may be prescribed by the Secretary.
10 3. Information, as may be required by the
11 Secretary, relating to the insurance policy for a motor
12 vehicle, including, but not limited to, the name of the
13 insurer which issued the policy.
14 4. Such further information as may reasonably be
15 required by the Secretary to enable him to determine
16 whether the vehicle is lawfully entitled to registration
17 and the owner entitled to a certificate of title.
18 5. An affirmation by the applicant that all
19 information set forth is true and correct. If the
20 application is for the registration of a motor vehicle,
21 the applicant also shall affirm that the motor vehicle is
22 insured as required by this Code, that such insurance
23 will be maintained throughout the period for which the
24 motor vehicle shall be registered, and that neither the
25 owner, nor any person operating the motor vehicle with
26 the owner's permission, shall operate the motor vehicle
27 unless the required insurance is in effect. If the
28 person signing the affirmation is not the sole owner of
29 the vehicle, such person shall be deemed to have affirmed
30 on behalf of all the owners of the vehicle. If the
31 person signing the affirmation is not an owner of the
32 vehicle, such person shall be deemed to have affirmed on
33 behalf of the owner or owners of the vehicle. The lack of
34 signature on the application shall not in any manner
-3- LRB9105351KStm
1 exempt the owner or owners from any provisions,
2 requirements or penalties of this Code.
3 (b) When such application refers to a new vehicle
4 purchased from a dealer the application shall be accompanied
5 by a Manufacturer's Statement of Origin from the dealer, and
6 a statement showing any lien retained by the dealer.

12 address named in the application or shown upon a registration
13 card or certificate of title such person shall within 10 days
14 thereafter notify the Secretary of State in writing of his
15 old and new address.
16 (a-5) A police officer, a deputy sheriff, an elected
17 sheriff, a law enforcement officer for the Department of
18 State Police, or a fire investigator who, in accordance with
19 Section 3-405, has furnished the address of the office of the
20 headquarters of the governmental entity or police district
21 where he or she works instead of his or her residence address
22 shall, within 10 days after he or she is no longer employed
23 by that governmental entity or police district as a police
24 officer, a deputy sheriff, an elected sheriff, a law
25 enforcement officer for the Department of State Police or a
26 fire investigator, notify the Secretary of State of the old
27 address and his or her new address.
