Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Illinois Vehicle Code. Provides that the driver's license of a person with one or more outstanding arrest warrants shall be suspended by the Secretary of State at all times while the arrest warrant or warrants are outstanding. Provides that the Secretary of State may cross-reference any of its databases with the Law Enforcement Agencies Data System (LEADS) to determine whether drivers have outstanding warrants.

House Committee Amendment No. 1
Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Amends the Illinois Vehicle Code. Provides that upon receipt of a properly completed and sworn affidavit stating that a person has an outstanding warrant and a copy of the outstanding warrant from a law enforcement agency, the Secretary of State shall immediately suspend the driving privileges of the person. Provides that after the warrant is no longer outstanding, it shall be the responsibility of the person to apply to have his or her driving privileges restored.

House Floor Amendment No. 2
Replaces everything after the enacting clause with the provisions of the introduced bill, as amended, and makes changes. Provides that the Secretary of State may suspend a person's driving privileges only if the outstanding warrant is for a felony (rather than any type of outstanding warrant). Provides that the Secretary of State shall prescribe the forms for the sworn affidavit causing suspension and the application form for reinstatement of driving privileges after the warrant is no longer outstanding. Provides that the person applying to have his or her driving privileges reinstated shall also submit to the Secretary of State a certified copy of the court transcript demonstrating that the warrant is no longer outstanding.
