    AN ACT concerning transportation.
  
 
    Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
 
represented in the General Assembly:
  



 
 
    Section 5. The Illinois Vehicle Code is amended  by changing 
Sections 11-501.1 and 11-501.2 as follows:
 
 

    (625 ILCS 5/11-501.1)

 
    (Text of Section before amendment by P.A. 96-1344)
    Sec. 11-501.1. Suspension of drivers license; statutory 
summary
alcohol, other drug or drugs, or intoxicating compound 
or
compounds related suspension; implied consent. 

    (a) Any person who drives or is in actual physical control 
of a motor
vehicle upon the public highways of this State shall 
be deemed to have given
consent, subject to the provisions of 
Section 11-501.2, to a chemical test or
tests of blood, breath, 
or urine for the purpose of determining the content of
alcohol, 
other drug or drugs, or intoxicating compound or compounds or

any combination thereof in the person's blood if arrested,
as 
evidenced by the issuance of a Uniform Traffic Ticket, for any 
offense
as defined in Section 11-501 or a similar provision of 
a local ordinance, or if arrested for violating Section 11-401.

If a law enforcement officer has probable cause to believe the 
person was under the influence of alcohol, other drug or drugs, 
intoxicating compound or compounds, or any combination 
thereof, the law enforcement officer shall request a chemical 
test or tests which The test or tests shall be administered at 
the direction of the arresting
officer. The law enforcement 
agency employing the officer shall designate which
of the 
aforesaid tests shall be administered.  A urine test may be 
administered
even after a blood or breath test or both has
been 
administered.  For purposes of this Section, an Illinois law

enforcement officer of this State who is investigating the 
person for any
offense defined in Section 11-501 may travel 
into an adjoining state, where
the person has been transported 
for medical care, to complete an
investigation and to request 
that the person submit to the test or tests
set forth in this 
Section.  The requirements of this Section that the
person be 
arrested are inapplicable, but the officer shall issue the 
person
a Uniform Traffic Ticket for an offense as defined in 
Section 11-501 or a
similar provision of a local ordinance 
prior to requesting that the person
submit to the test or 
tests.  The issuance of the Uniform Traffic Ticket
shall not 
constitute an arrest, but shall be for the purpose of notifying

the person that he or she is subject to the provisions of this 
Section and
of the officer's belief of the existence of 
probable cause to
arrest.  Upon returning to this State, the 
officer shall file the Uniform
Traffic Ticket with the Circuit 
Clerk of the county where the offense was
committed, and shall 
seek the issuance of an arrest warrant or a summons
for the 
person.

    (b) Any person who is dead, unconscious, or who is 
otherwise in a condition
rendering the person incapable of 
refusal, shall be deemed not to have
withdrawn the consent 
provided by paragraph (a) of this Section and the test or
tests 
may be administered, subject to the provisions of Section 
11-501.2.

    (c) A person requested to submit to a test as provided 
above shall
be warned by the law enforcement officer requesting 
the test that a
refusal to submit to the test will result in 
the statutory summary
suspension of the person's privilege to 
operate a motor vehicle, as provided
in Section 6-208.1 of this 
Code, and will also result in the disqualification of the 
person's privilege to operate a commercial motor vehicle, as 
provided in Section 6-514 of this Code, if the person is a CDL 
holder. The person shall also be warned by the law
enforcement 
officer that if the person submits to the test or tests

provided in paragraph (a) of this Section and the alcohol 
concentration in
the person's blood or breath is 0.08 or 
greater, or any amount of
a
drug, substance, or compound 
resulting from the unlawful use or consumption
of cannabis as 
covered by the Cannabis Control Act, a controlled
substance

listed in the Illinois Controlled Substances Act, an 
intoxicating compound
listed in the Use of Intoxicating 
Compounds Act, or methamphetamine as listed in the 
Methamphetamine Control and Community Protection Act is 
detected in the person's
blood or urine, a statutory summary 
suspension of the person's privilege to
operate a motor 
vehicle, as provided in Sections 6-208.1 and 11-501.1 of this

Code, and a disqualification of

the person's privilege to 
operate a commercial motor vehicle, as provided in Section 
6-514 of this Code, if the person is a CDL holder, will be 
imposed.

    A person who is under the age of 21 at the time the person 
is requested to
submit to a test as provided above shall, in 
addition to the warnings provided
for in this Section, be 
further warned by the law enforcement officer
requesting the 
test that if the person submits to the test or tests provided 
in
paragraph (a) of this Section and the alcohol concentration 
in the person's
blood or  breath is greater than 0.00 and less 
than 0.08, a
suspension of the
person's privilege to operate a 
motor vehicle, as provided under Sections
6-208.2 and 11-501.8 
of this Code, will be imposed.  The results of this test
shall 
be admissible in a civil or criminal action or proceeding 
arising from an
arrest for an offense as defined in Section 
11-501 of this Code or a similar
provision of a local ordinance 
or pursuant to Section 11-501.4 in prosecutions
for reckless 
homicide brought under the Criminal Code of 1961. These test

results, however, shall be admissible only in actions or 
proceedings directly
related to the incident upon which the 
test request was made.

    (d) If the person refuses testing or submits to a test that 
discloses
an alcohol concentration of 0.08 or more, or any 
amount of a drug,
substance, or intoxicating compound in the 
person's breath, blood,
or urine resulting from the
unlawful 
use or consumption of cannabis listed in the Cannabis Control 
Act, a controlled substance listed in the Illinois Controlled 
Substances
Act, an intoxicating compound listed in the Use of 
Intoxicating Compounds
Act, or methamphetamine as listed in the 
Methamphetamine Control and Community Protection Act, the law 
enforcement officer shall immediately submit a sworn report to

the
circuit court of venue and the Secretary of State, 
certifying that the test or
tests was or were requested under 
paragraph (a) and the person refused to
submit to a test, or 
tests, or submitted to testing that disclosed an alcohol

concentration of 0.08 or more.

    (e) Upon receipt of the sworn report of a law enforcement 
officer
submitted under paragraph (d), the Secretary of State 
shall enter the
statutory summary suspension and 
disqualification for the periods specified in Sections

6-208.1 
and 6-514, respectively,
and effective as provided in paragraph 
(g).

    If the person is a first offender as defined in Section 
11-500 of this
Code, and is not convicted of a violation of 
Section 11-501
of this Code or a similar provision of a local 
ordinance, then reports
received by the Secretary of State 
under this Section shall, except during
the actual time the 
Statutory Summary Suspension is in effect, be
privileged 
information and for use only by the courts, police officers,

prosecuting authorities or the Secretary of State, unless the 
person is a CDL holder, is operating a commercial motor vehicle 
or vehicle required to be placarded for hazardous materials, in 
which case the suspension shall not be privileged.
Reports 
received by the Secretary of State under this Section shall 
also be made available to the parent or guardian of a person 
under the age of 18 years that holds an instruction permit or a 
graduated driver's license, regardless of whether the 
statutory summary suspension is in effect.

    (f) The law enforcement officer submitting the sworn report 
under paragraph
(d) shall serve immediate notice of the 
statutory summary suspension on the
person and the suspension 
and disqualification shall be effective as provided in 
paragraph (g). In
cases where the blood alcohol concentration 
of 0.08 or greater or
any amount of
a drug, substance, or 
compound resulting from the unlawful use or consumption
of 
cannabis as covered by the Cannabis Control Act, a controlled

substance
listed in the Illinois Controlled Substances Act,
an 
intoxicating compound
listed in the Use of Intoxicating 
Compounds Act, or methamphetamine as listed in the 
Methamphetamine Control and Community Protection Act is 
established by a
subsequent
analysis of blood or urine 
collected at the time of arrest, the arresting
officer or 
arresting agency shall give notice as provided in this Section 
or by
deposit in the United States mail of the notice in an 
envelope with postage
prepaid and addressed to the person at 
his address as shown on the Uniform
Traffic Ticket and the 
statutory summary suspension and disqualification shall begin 
as provided in
paragraph (g).  The officer shall confiscate any 
Illinois driver's license or
permit on the person at the time 
of arrest. If the person has a valid driver's
license or 
permit, the officer shall issue the person a receipt, in
a form 
prescribed by the Secretary of State, that will allow that 
person
to drive during the periods provided for in paragraph 
(g). The officer
shall immediately forward the driver's license 
or permit to the circuit
court of venue along with the sworn 
report provided for in
paragraph (d).

    (g) The statutory summary suspension and disqualification

referred to in this Section shall
take effect on the 46th day 
following the date the notice of the statutory
summary 
suspension was given to the person.

    (h) The following procedure shall apply
whenever a person 
is arrested for any offense as defined in Section 11-501
or a 
similar provision of a local ordinance:

    Upon receipt of the sworn report from the law enforcement 
officer,
the Secretary of State shall confirm the statutory 
summary suspension by
mailing a notice of the effective date of 
the suspension to the person and
the court of venue. The 
Secretary of State shall also mail notice of the effective date 
of the disqualification to the person. However, should the 
sworn report be defective by not
containing sufficient 
information or be completed in error, the
confirmation of the 
statutory summary suspension shall not be mailed to the
person 
or entered to the record; instead, the sworn report shall
be

forwarded to the court of venue with a copy returned to the 
issuing agency
identifying any defect.

    (625 ILCS 5/11-501.2)  (from Ch. 95 1/2, par. 11-501.2)


    Sec. 11-501.2. Chemical and other tests. 

    (a) Upon the trial of any civil or criminal action or 
proceeding arising out
of an arrest for an offense as defined 
in Section 11-501 or a similar local
ordinance or proceedings 
pursuant to Section 2-118.1, evidence of the
concentration of 
alcohol, other drug or drugs, or intoxicating compound or

compounds, or any combination thereof in a person's blood
or 
breath at the time alleged, as determined by analysis of the 
person's blood,
urine, breath or other bodily substance, shall 
be admissible.  Where such test
is made the following provisions 
shall apply:


        1. Chemical analyses of the person's blood, urine, 
    breath or other bodily
substance to be considered valid 
    under the provisions of this Section shall
have been 
    performed according to standards promulgated by the 
    Department of State Police
by
a licensed physician, 
    registered nurse, trained phlebotomist, certified 
    paramedic, or other individual
possessing a valid permit 
    issued by that Department for
this purpose.  The Director of 
    State Police is authorized to approve satisfactory

    techniques or methods, to ascertain the qualifications and 
    competence of
individuals to conduct such analyses, to 
    issue permits which shall be subject
to termination or 
    revocation at the discretion of that Department and to

    certify the accuracy of breath testing equipment. The 
    Department
of
State Police shall prescribe regulations as 
    necessary to
implement this
Section.


        2. When a person in this State shall submit to a blood 
    test at the request
of a law enforcement officer under the 
    provisions of Section 11-501.1, only a
physician 
    authorized to practice medicine, a registered nurse, 
    trained
phlebotomist, or certified paramedic, or other

    qualified person approved by the Department of State Police 
    may withdraw blood
for the purpose of determining the 
    alcohol, drug, or alcohol and drug content
therein. This 
    limitation shall not apply to the taking of breath or urine

    specimens.


        When a blood test of a person who has been taken to an 
    adjoining state
for medical treatment is requested by an 
    Illinois law enforcement officer,
the blood may be 
    withdrawn only by a physician authorized to practice

    medicine in the adjoining state, a registered nurse, a 
    trained
phlebotomist acting under the direction of the 
    physician, or certified
paramedic. The law
enforcement 
    officer requesting the test shall take custody of the blood

    sample, and the blood sample shall be analyzed by a 
    laboratory certified by the
Department of State Police for 
    that purpose.


        3. The person tested may have a physician, or a 
    qualified technician,
chemist, registered nurse, or other 
    qualified person of their own choosing
administer a 
    chemical test or tests in addition to any administered at 
    the
direction of a law enforcement officer.  The failure or 
    inability to obtain
an additional test by a person shall 
    not preclude the admission of evidence
relating to the test 
    or tests taken at the direction of a law enforcement

    officer.


        4. Upon the request of the person who shall submit to a 
    chemical test
or tests at the request of a law enforcement 
    officer, full information
concerning the test or tests 
    shall be made available to the person or such
person's 
    attorney.


        5. Alcohol concentration shall mean either grams of 
    alcohol per 100
milliliters of blood or grams of alcohol 
    per 210 liters of breath.

    (b) Upon the trial of any civil or criminal action or 
proceeding arising
out of acts alleged to have been committed 
by any person while driving or
in actual physical control of a 
vehicle while under the influence of alcohol,
the concentration 
of alcohol in the person's blood or breath at the time
alleged 
as shown by analysis of the person's blood, urine, breath, or 
other
bodily substance shall give rise to the following 
presumptions:


        1. If there was at that time an alcohol concentration 
    of 0.05 or less,
it shall be presumed that the person was 
    not under the influence of alcohol.


        2. If there was at that time an alcohol concentration 
    in excess of 0.05
but less than 0.08, such facts shall not 
    give rise to any
presumption that
the person was or was not 
    under the influence of alcohol, but such fact
may be 
    considered with other competent evidence in determining 
    whether the
person was under the influence of alcohol.


        3. If there was at that time an alcohol concentration 
    of 0.08
or more,
it shall be presumed that the person was 
    under the influence of alcohol.


        4. The foregoing provisions of this Section shall not 
    be construed as
limiting the introduction of any other 
    relevant evidence bearing upon the
question whether the 
    person was under the influence of alcohol.


    (c) 1. If a person under arrest refuses to submit to a 
chemical test
under
the provisions of Section 11-501.1, 
evidence of refusal shall be admissible
in any civil or 
criminal action or proceeding arising out of acts alleged
to 
have been committed while the person under the influence of 
alcohol,
other drug or drugs, or intoxicating compound or 
compounds, or
any combination thereof was driving or in actual 
physical
control of a motor vehicle.


    2. Notwithstanding any ability to refuse under this Code to 
submit to
these tests or any ability to revoke the implied 
consent to these tests, if a
law enforcement officer has 
probable cause to believe that a motor vehicle
driven by or in 
actual physical control of a person under the influence of

alcohol, other drug or drugs, or intoxicating compound or

compounds,
or any combination thereof
has caused the death or

personal injury to another, the law enforcement officer shall 
request, and that person shall submit, upon the request of a 
law
enforcement officer, to a chemical test or tests of his or 
her blood, breath or
urine for the purpose of
determining the 
alcohol content thereof or the presence of any other drug or

combination of both.
