31 the time of the offense.
32 (b) The Secretary of State shall also immediately revoke
33 the license or permit of any driver in the following
34 situations:
-3- LRB9105190LDdvA
1 1. Of any minor upon receiving the notice provided
2 for in Section 5-901 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987

6 2. Of any person when any other law of this State
7 requires either the revocation or suspension of a license

9 (c) Whenever a person is convicted of any of the
10 offenses enumerated in this Section, the court may recommend
11 and the Secretary of State in his discretion, without regard
12 to whether the recommendation is made by the court, may, upon
13 application, issue to the person a restricted driving permit
14 granting the privilege of driving a motor vehicle between the
15 petitioner's residence and petitioner's place of employment
16 or within the scope of the petitioner's employment related
17 duties, or to allow transportation for the petitioner or a
18 household member of the petitioner's family for the receipt
19 of necessary medical care or, if the professional evaluation
20 indicates, provide transportation for the petitioner for
21 alcohol remedial or rehabilitative activity, or for the
22 petitioner to attend classes, as a student, in an accredited
23 educational institution; if the petitioner is able to
24 demonstrate that no alternative means of transportation is
25 reasonably available and the petitioner will not endanger the
26 public safety or welfare; provided that the Secretary's
27 discretion shall be limited to cases where undue hardship
28 would result from a failure to issue the restricted driving
29 permit. In each case the Secretary of State may issue a
30 restricted driving permit for a period he deems appropriate,
31 except that the permit shall expire within one year from the
32 date of issuance. A restricted driving permit issued under
33 this Section shall be subject to cancellation, revocation,
34 and suspension by the Secretary of State in like manner and
-4- LRB9105190LDdvA
1 for like cause as a driver's license issued under this Code
2 may be cancelled, revoked, or suspended; except that a
3 conviction upon one or more offenses against laws or
4 ordinances regulating the movement of traffic shall be deemed
5 sufficient cause for the revocation, suspension, or
6 cancellation of a restricted driving permit. The Secretary of
7 State may, as a condition to the issuance of a restricted
8 driving permit, require the applicant to participate in a
9 designated driver remedial or rehabilitative program. The
10 Secretary of State is authorized to cancel a restricted
11 driving permit if the permit holder does not successfully
12 complete the program. However, if an individual's driving
13 privileges have been revoked in accordance with paragraph 13
14 of subsection (a) of this Section, no restricted driving
15 permit shall be issued until the individual has served 6
16 months of the revocation period.
17 (d) Whenever a person under the age of 21 is convicted
18 under Section 11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a
19 local ordinance, the Secretary of State shall revoke the
20 driving privileges of that person. One year after the date
21 of revocation, and upon application, the Secretary of State
22 may, if satisfied that the person applying will not endanger
23 the public safety or welfare, issue a restricted driving
24 permit granting the privilege of driving a motor vehicle only
25 between the hours of 5 a.m. and 9 p.m. or as otherwise
26 provided by this Section for a period of one year. After
27 this one year period, and upon reapplication for a license as
28 provided in Section 6-106, upon payment of the appropriate
29 reinstatement fee provided under paragraph (b) of Section
30 6-118, the Secretary of State, in his discretion, may issue
31 the applicant a license, or extend the restricted driving
32 permit as many times as the Secretary of State deems
33 appropriate, by additional periods of not more than 12 months
34 each, until the applicant attains 21 years of age. A
-5- LRB9105190LDdvA
1 restricted driving permit issued under this Section shall be
2 subject to cancellation, revocation, and suspension by the
3 Secretary of State in like manner and for like cause as a
4 driver's license issued under this Code may be cancelled,
5 revoked, or suspended; except that a conviction upon one or
6 more offenses against laws or ordinances regulating the
7 movement of traffic shall be deemed sufficient cause for the
8 revocation, suspension, or cancellation of a restricted
9 driving permit. Any person under 21 years of age who has a
10 driver's license revoked for a second or subsequent
11 conviction for driving under the influence, prior to the age
12 of 21, shall not be eligible to submit an application for a
13 full reinstatement of driving privileges or a restricted
14 driving permit until age 21 or one additional year from the
15 date of the latest such revocation, whichever is the longer.
16 The revocation periods contained in this subparagraph shall
17 apply to similar out-of-state convictions.
18 (e) This Section is subject to the provisions of the
19 Driver License Compact.
20 (f) Any revocation imposed upon any person under
21 subsections 2 and 3 of paragraph (b) that is in effect on
22 December 31, 1988 shall be converted to a suspension for a
23 like period of time.
24 (g) The Secretary of State shall not issue a restricted
25 driving permit to a person under the age of 16 years whose
26 driving privileges have been revoked under any provisions of
27 this Code.
28 (h) The Secretary of State may use ignition interlock
29 device requirements when granting driving relief to
30 individuals who have been arrested for an a second or
31 subsequent offense under Section 11-501 of this Code or a
32 similar provision of a local ordinance. The Secretary shall
33 establish by rule and regulation the procedures for use of
34 the interlock system authorized by this Act and Section
-6- LRB9105190LDdvA
1 5-6-3.1 of the Unified Code of Corrections.

7 Sec. 6-206.1. Judicial Driving Permit. Declaration of
8 Policy. It is hereby declared a policy of the State of
9 Illinois that the driver who is impaired by alcohol, other
10 drug or drugs, or intoxicating compound or compounds is a
11 threat to the public safety and welfare. Therefore, to
12 provide a deterrent to such practice and to remove problem
13 drivers from the highway, a statutory summary driver's
14 license suspension is appropriate. It is also recognized that
15 driving is a privilege and therefore, that in some cases the
16 granting of limited driving privileges, where consistent with
17 public safety, is warranted during the period of suspension
18 in the form of a judicial driving permit to drive for the
19 purpose of employment, receiving drug treatment or medical
20 care, and educational pursuits, where no alternative means of
21 transportation is available.
22 The following procedures shall apply whenever a first
23 offender is arrested for any offense as defined in Section
24 11-501 or a similar provision of a local ordinance:
25 (a) Subsequent to a notification of a statutory summary
26 suspension of driving privileges as provided in Section
27 11-501.1, the first offender as defined in Section 11-500 may
28 petition the circuit court of venue for a Judicial Driving
29 Permit, hereinafter referred as a JDP, to relieve undue
30 hardship. The court may issue a court order, pursuant to
31 the criteria contained in this Section, directing the
32 Secretary of State to issue such a JDP to the petitioner. A
33 JDP shall not become effective prior to the 31st day of the
-7- LRB9105190LDdvA
1 original statutory summary suspension and shall always be
2 subject to the following criteria:
3 1. If ordered for the purposes of employment, the
4 JDP shall be only for the purpose of providing the
5 petitioner the privilege of driving a motor vehicle
6 between the petitioner's residence and the petitioner's
7 place of employment and return; or within the scope of
8 the petitioner's employment related duties, shall be
9 effective only during and limited to those specific times
10 and routes actually required to commute or perform the
11 petitioner's employment related duties.
12 2. The court, by a court order, may also direct the
13 Secretary of State to issue a JDP to allow transportation
14 for the petitioner, or a household member of the
15 petitioner's family, to receive alcohol, drug, or
16 intoxicating compound treatment or medical care, if the
17 petitioner is able to demonstrate that no alternative
18 means of transportation is reasonably available. Such JDP
19 shall be effective only during the specific times
20 actually required to commute.
21 3. The court, by a court order, may also direct the
22 Secretary of State to issue a JDP to allow transportation
23 by the petitioner for educational purposes upon
24 demonstrating that there are no alternative means of
25 transportation reasonably available to accomplish those
26 educational purposes. Such JDP shall be only for the
27 purpose of providing transportation to and from the
28 petitioner's residence and the petitioner's place of
29 educational activity, and only during the specific times
30 and routes actually required to commute or perform the
31 petitioner's educational requirement.
32 4. The Court shall not issue an order granting a
33 JDP to:
34 (i) Any person unless and until the court,
-8- LRB9105190LDdvA
1 after considering the results of a current
2 professional evaluation of the person's alcohol or
3 other drug use by an agency pursuant to Section
4 15-10 of the Alcoholism and Other Drug Abuse and
5 Dependency Act and other appropriate investigation
6 of the person, is satisfied that granting the
7 privilege of driving a motor vehicle on the highways
8 will not endanger the public safety or welfare.
9 (ii) Any person who has been convicted of
10 reckless homicide within the previous 5 years.
11 (iii) Any person whose privilege to operate a
12 motor vehicle was invalid at the time of arrest for
13 the current violation of Section 11-501, or a
14 similar provision of a local ordinance, except in
15 cases where the cause for a driver's license
16 suspension has been removed at the time a JDP is
17 effective. In any case, should the Secretary of
18 State enter a suspension or revocation of driving
19 privileges pursuant to the provisions of this Code
20 while the JDP is in effect or pending, the Secretary
21 shall take the prescribed action and provide a
22 notice to the person and the court ordering the
23 issuance of the JDP that all driving privileges,
24 including those provided by the issuance of the JDP,
25 have been withdrawn.
26 (iv) Any person under the age of 18 years.
27 (b) Prior to ordering the issuance of a JDP the Court
28 should consider at least, but not be limited to, the
29 following issues:
30 1. Whether the person is employed and no other
31 means of commuting to the place of employment is
32 available or that the person must drive as a condition of
33 employment. The employer shall certify the hours of
34 employment and the need and parameters necessary for
-9- LRB9105190LDdvA
1 driving as a condition to employment.
2 2. Whether the person must drive to secure alcohol
3 or other medical treatment for himself or a family
4 member.
5 3. Whether the person must drive for educational
6 purposes. The educational institution shall certify the
7 person's enrollment in and academic schedule at the
8 institution.
9 4. Whether the person has been repeatedly convicted
10 of traffic violations or involved in motor vehicle
11 accidents to a degree which indicates disrespect for
12 public safety.
13 5. Whether the person has been convicted of a
14 traffic violation in connection with a traffic accident
15 resulting in the death of any person within the last 5
16 years.
17 6. Whether the person is likely to obey the limited
18 provisions of the JDP.
19 7. Whether the person has any additional traffic
20 violations pending in any court.
21 For purposes of this Section, programs conducting
22 professional evaluations of a person's alcohol, other drug,
23 or intoxicating compound use must report, to the court of
24 venue, using a form prescribed by the Secretary of State. A
25 copy of such evaluations shall be sent to the Secretary of
26 State by the court. However, the evaluation information shall
27 be privileged and only available to courts and to the
28 Secretary of State, but shall not be admissible in the
29 subsequent trial on the underlying charge.
30 (c) The scope of any court order issued for a JDP under
31 this Section shall be limited to the operation of a motor
32 vehicle as provided for in subsection (a) of this Section and
33 shall specify the petitioner's residence, place of employment
34 or location of educational institution, and the scope of job
-10- LRB9105190LDdvA
1 related duties, if relevant. The JDP shall also specify days
2 of the week and specific hours of the day when the petitioner
3 is able to exercise the limited privilege of operating a
4 motor vehicle. If the Petitioner, who has been granted a JDP,
5 is issued a citation for a traffic related offense, including
6 operating a motor vehicle outside the limitations prescribed
7 in the JDP or a violation of Section 6-303, or is convicted
8 of any such an offense during the term of the JDP, the court
9 shall consider cancellation of the limited driving permit.
10 In any case, if the Petitioner commits an offense, as defined
11 in Section 11-501, or a similar provision of a local
12 ordinance, as evidenced by the issuance of a Uniform Traffic
13 Ticket, the JDP shall be forwarded by the court of venue to
14 the court ordering the issuance of the JDP, for cancellation.
15 The court shall notify the Secretary of State of any such
16 cancellation.
17 (d) The Secretary of State shall, upon receiving a court
18 order from the court of venue, issue a JDP to a successful
19 Petitioner under this Section. Such court order form shall
20 also contain a notification, which shall be sent to the
21 Secretary of State, providing the name, driver's license
22 number and legal address of the successful petitioner, and
23 the full and detailed description of the limitations of the
24 JDP. This information shall be available only to the courts,
25 police officers, and the Secretary of State, except during
26 the actual period the JDP is valid, during which time it
27 shall be a public record. The Secretary of State shall design
28 and furnish to the courts an official court order form to be
29 used by the courts when directing the Secretary of State to
30 issue a JDP.
31 Any submitted court order that contains insufficient data
32 or fails to comply with this Code shall not be utilized for
33 JDP issuance or entered to the driver record but shall be
34 returned to the issuing court indicating why the JDP cannot
-11- LRB9105190LDdvA
1 be so entered. A notice of this action shall also be sent to
2 the JDP petitioner by the Secretary of State.
3 (e) The circuit court of venue may conduct the judicial
4 hearing, as provided in Section 2-118.1, and the JDP hearing
5 provided in this Section, concurrently. Such concurrent
6 hearing shall proceed in the court in the same manner as in
7 other civil proceedings.
8 (f) The circuit court of venue may, as a condition of
9 the issuance of a JDP, prohibit the person from operating a
10 motor vehicle not equipped with an ignition interlock device.

18 motor vehicle not equipped with an ignition interlock device
19 to request or solicit any other person to blow into an
20 ignition interlock device or to start a motor vehicle
21 equipped with the device for the purpose of providing the
22 person so restricted with an operable motor vehicle.
23 (b) It is unlawful to blow into an ignition interlock
24 device or to start a motor vehicle equipped with the device
25 for the purpose of providing an operable motor vehicle to a

27 prohibited from operating a motor vehicle not equipped with
28 an ignition interlock device.
29 (c) It is unlawful to tamper with, or circumvent the
30 operation of, an ignition interlock device.
31 (d) Except as provided in subsection (c)(17) of Section

1 to a person known to have his or her driving privilege
2 restricted by being prohibited from operating a vehicle not
3 equipped with an ignition interlock device, unless the
4 vehicle is equipped with a functioning ignition interlock
5 device. Any person whose driving privilege is so restricted
6 shall notify any person intending to rent, lease, or loan a
7 motor vehicle to the restricted person of the driving
8 restriction imposed upon him or her.
9 A person convicted of a violation of this subsection
10 shall be punished by imprisonment for not more than 6 months

20 date of the most recent revocation. The 20 year period
21 shall be computed by using the dates the offenses were
22 committed and shall also include similar out-of-state
23 offenses.
24 3. However, except as provided in subparagraph 4,
25 if such person is convicted of committing a third, or

1 Sec. 5-6-3.1. Incidents and Conditions of Supervision.
2 (a) When a defendant is placed on supervision, the court
3 shall enter an order for supervision specifying the period of
4 such supervision, and shall defer further proceedings in the
5 case until the conclusion of the period.
6 (b) The period of supervision shall be reasonable under
7 all of the circumstances of the case, but may not be longer
8 than 2 years, unless the defendant has failed to pay the
9 assessment required by Section 10.3 of the Cannabis Control
10 Act or Section 411.2 of the Illinois Controlled Substances

12 years. Additionally, the court shall order the defendant to
13 perform no less than 30 hours of community service and not
14 more than 120 hours of community service, if community
15 service is available in the jurisdiction and is funded and
16 approved by the county board where the offense was committed,
17 when the offense (1) was related to or in furtherance of the
18 criminal activities of an organized gang or was motivated by
19 the defendant's membership in or allegiance to an organized
20 gang; or (2) is a violation of any Section of Article 24 of
21 the Criminal Code of 1961 where a disposition of supervision
22 is not prohibited by Section 5-6-1 of this Code. The
23 community service shall include, but not be limited to, the
24 cleanup and repair of any damage caused by violation of
25 Section 21-1.3 of the Criminal Code of 1961 and similar
26 damages to property located within the municipality or county
27 in which the violation occurred. Where possible and
28 reasonable, the community service should be performed in the
29 offender's neighborhood.
30 For the purposes of this Section, "organized gang" has
31 the meaning ascribed to it in Section 10 of the Illinois
32 Streetgang Terrorism Omnibus Prevention Act.
33 (c) The court may in addition to other reasonable
34 conditions relating to the nature of the offense or the
-24- LRB9105190LDdvA
1 rehabilitation of the defendant as determined for each
2 defendant in the proper discretion of the court require that

3 person under paragraph (1) of this subsection, a copy of
4 the order of protection shall be transmitted to the
5 person or agency so designated by the court;
6 (12) reimburse any "local anti-crime program" as
7 defined in Section 7 of the Anti-Crime Advisory Council

10 of the fine authorized for the offense for which the
11 defendant was sentenced;
12 (13) contribute a reasonable sum of money, not to

5 ignition interlock device in the course and scope of the
6 defendant's employment.
7 (d) The court shall defer entering any judgment on the

9 (e) At the conclusion of the period of supervision, if
10 the court determines that the defendant has successfully
11 complied with all of the conditions of supervision, the court
12 shall discharge the defendant and enter a judgment dismissing
13 the charges.
14 (f) Discharge and dismissal upon a successful conclusion
15 of a disposition of supervision shall be deemed without
16 adjudication of guilt and shall not be termed a conviction
17 for purposes of disqualification or disabilities imposed by
18 law upon conviction of a crime. Two years after the
19 discharge and dismissal under this Section, unless the
20 disposition of supervision was for a violation of Sections
21 3-707, 3-708, 3-710, 5-401.3, or 11-503 of the Illinois
22 Vehicle Code or a similar provision of a local ordinance, or

24 Code of 1961, in which case it shall be 5 years after
25 discharge and dismissal, a person may have his record of
26 arrest sealed or expunged as may be provided by law.

2 expunged.
3 (g) A defendant placed on supervision and who during the
4 period of supervision undergoes mandatory drug or alcohol
5 testing, or both, or is assigned to be placed on an approved
6 electronic monitoring device, shall be ordered to pay the
7 costs incidental to such mandatory drug or alcohol testing,
8 or both, and costs incidental to such approved electronic
9 monitoring in accordance with the defendant's ability to pay
10 those costs. The county board with the concurrence of the
11 Chief Judge of the judicial circuit in which the county is
12 located shall establish reasonable fees for the cost of
13 maintenance, testing, and incidental expenses related to the
14 mandatory drug or alcohol testing, or both, and all costs
15 incidental to approved electronic monitoring, of all
16 defendants placed on supervision. The concurrence of the
17 Chief Judge shall be in the form of an administrative order.
18 The fees shall be collected by the clerk of the circuit
19 court. The clerk of the circuit court shall pay all moneys
20 collected from these fees to the county treasurer who shall
21 use the moneys collected to defray the costs of drug testing,
22 alcohol testing, and electronic monitoring. The county
23 treasurer shall deposit the fees collected in the county
24 working cash fund under Section 6-27001 or Section 6-29002 of
25 the Counties Code, as the case may be.
26 (h) A disposition of supervision is a final order for
27 the purposes of appeal.

29 supervision after January 1, 1992, as a condition of
30 supervision, a fee of $25 for each month of supervision
31 ordered by the court, unless after determining the inability
32 of the person placed on supervision to pay the fee, the court
33 assesses a lesser fee. The court may not impose the fee on a
34 minor who is made a ward of the State under the Juvenile
-28- LRB9105190LDdvA
1 Court Act of 1987 while the minor is in placement. The fee
2 shall be imposed only upon a defendant who is actively
3 supervised by the probation and court services department.
4 The fee shall be collected by the clerk of the circuit court.

6 from this fee to the county treasurer for deposit in the
7 probation and court services fund pursuant to Section 15.1 of
8 the Probation and Probation Officers Act.
9 (j) All fines and costs imposed under this Section for
10 any violation of Chapters 3, 4, 6, and 11 of the Illinois
11 Vehicle Code, or a similar provision of a local ordinance,
12 and any violation of the Child Passenger Protection Act, or a
13 similar provision of a local ordinance, shall be collected
14 and disbursed by the circuit clerk as provided under Section
15 27.5 of the Clerks of Courts Act.
16 (k) A defendant at least 17 years of age who is placed
17 on supervision for a misdemeanor in a county of 3,000,000 or
18 more inhabitants and who has not been previously convicted of
19 a misdemeanor or felony may as a condition of his or her
20 supervision be required by the court to attend educational
21 courses designed to prepare the defendant for a high school
22 diploma and to work toward a high school diploma or to work
23 toward passing the high school level Test of General

28 vocational training required by this subsection (k). The
29 defendant placed on supervision shall be required to pay for
30 the cost of the educational courses or GED test, if a fee is
31 charged for those courses or test. The court shall revoke
32 the supervision of a person who wilfully fails to comply with
33 this subsection (k). The court shall resentence the
34 defendant upon revocation of supervision as provided in
