18discretion and with the employee's consent, and the State shall
19indemnify the employee for any damages, court costs and
20attorneys' fees agreed to as part of the settlement, or shall
21pay such settlement. Where the employee is represented by

1Vehicle Code for the protection of persons insured thereunder
2who are legally entitled to recover damages from owners or
3operators of uninsured motor vehicles and hit-and-run motor
4vehicles because of bodily injury, sickness or disease,
5including death, resulting therefrom. Uninsured motor vehicle
6coverage does not apply to bodily injury, sickness, disease, or
7death resulting therefrom, of an insured while occupying a
8motor vehicle owned by, or furnished or available for the
9regular use of the insured, a resident spouse or resident
10relative, if that motor vehicle is not described in the policy
11under which a claim is made or is not a newly acquired or
12replacement motor vehicle covered under the terms of the
13policy. The limits for any coverage for any vehicle under the
14policy may not be aggregated with the limits for any similar
15coverage, whether provided by the same insurer or another
16insurer, applying to other motor vehicles, for purposes of
17determining the total limit of insurance coverage available for
18bodily injury or death suffered by a person in any one crash
19accident. No policy shall be renewed, delivered, or issued for
20delivery in this State unless it is provided therein that any
21dispute with respect to the coverage and the amount of damages
22shall be submitted for arbitration to the American Arbitration
23Association and be subject to its rules for the conduct of
24arbitration hearings as to all matters except medical opinions.
25As to medical opinions, if the amount of damages being sought
26is equal to or less than the amount provided for in Section

 

 

HB4835- 60 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

17-203 of the Illinois Vehicle Code, then the current American
2Arbitration Association Rules shall apply. If the amount being
3sought in an American Arbitration Association case exceeds that
4amount as set forth in Section 7-203 of the Illinois Vehicle
5Code, then the Rules of Evidence that apply in the circuit
6court for placing medical opinions into evidence shall govern.
7Alternatively, disputes with respect to damages and the
8coverage shall be determined in the following manner: Upon the
9insured requesting arbitration, each party to the dispute shall
10select an arbitrator and the 2 arbitrators so named shall
11select a third arbitrator. If such arbitrators are not selected
12within 45 days from such request, either party may request that
13the arbitration be submitted to the American Arbitration
14Association. Any decision made by the arbitrators shall be
15binding for the amount of damages not exceeding $75,000 for
16bodily injury to or death of any one person, $150,000 for
17bodily injury to or death of 2 or more persons in any one motor
18vehicle crash accident, or the corresponding policy limits for
19bodily injury or death, whichever is less. All 3-person
20arbitration cases proceeding in accordance with any uninsured
21motorist coverage conducted in this State in which the claimant
22is only seeking monetary damages up to the limits set forth in
23Section 7-203 of the Illinois Vehicle Code shall be subject to
24the following rules:

10            (3) property repair bills or estimates, when
11        identified and itemized setting forth the charges for
12        labor and material used or proposed for use in the

10or reissuance, substitute, amended, replacement or
11supplementary policy. No written rejection shall be required,
12and the absence of a premium payment for uninsured motor
13vehicle property damage shall constitute conclusive proof that

6damages shall be submitted for arbitration to the American
7Arbitration Association and be subject to its rules for the
8conduct of arbitration hearings or for determination in the

9equal to the insured's bodily injury liability limits unless
10specifically rejected by the insured as provided in paragraph
11(2) of this Section. Each insurance company providing the
12coverage must provide applicants with a brief description of
13the coverage and advise them of their right to reject the

1to purchase limits of uninsured motorist coverage which are
2less than bodily injury liability limits or to reject limits in

4in any renewal, reinstatement, reissuance, substitute,
5amended, replacement or supplementary policy, coverage in
6excess of that elected by the insured in connection with a
7policy previously issued to such insured by the same insurer
8unless the insured subsequently makes a written request for

4liability for an insurer providing underinsured motorist
5coverage shall be the limits of such coverage, less those
6amounts actually recovered under the applicable bodily injury
7insurance policies, bonds or other security maintained on the
8underinsured motor vehicle.

23    (5) Scope. Nothing herein shall prohibit an insurer from
24setting forth policy terms and conditions which provide that if
25the insured has coverage available under this Section under
26more than one policy or provision of coverage, any recovery or

 

 

HB4835- 73 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1benefits may be equal to, but may not exceed, the higher of the
2applicable limits of the respective coverage, and the limits of
3liability under this Section shall not be increased because of
4multiple motor vehicles covered under the same policy of
5insurance. Insurers providing liability coverage on an excess
6or umbrella basis are neither required to provide, nor are they
7prohibited from offering or making available coverages
8conforming to this Section on a supplemental basis.
9Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section, an insurer
10shall not be prohibited from solely providing a combination of
11uninsured and underinsured motorist coverages where the limits
12of liability under each coverage is in the same amount.
13    (6) Subrogation against underinsured motorists. No insurer
14shall exercise any right of subrogation under a policy
15providing additional uninsured motorist coverage against an
16underinsured motorist where the insurer has been provided with
17written notice in advance of a settlement between its insured
18and the underinsured motorist and the insurer fails to advance
19a payment to the insured, in an amount equal to the tentative
20settlement, within 30 days following receipt of such notice.
21    (7) A policy which provides underinsured motor vehicle
22coverage may include a clause which denies payment until the
23limits of liability or portion thereof under all bodily injury
24liability insurance policies applicable to the underinsured
25motor vehicle and its operators have been partially or fully
26exhausted by payment of judgment or settlement. A judgment or

 

 

HB4835- 74 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1settlement of the bodily injury claim in an amount less than
2the limits of liability of the bodily injury coverages
3applicable to the claim shall not preclude the claimant from
4making an underinsured motorist claim against the underinsured
5motorist coverage. Any such provision in a policy of insurance
6shall be inapplicable if the insured, or the legal
7representative of the insured, and the insurer providing
8underinsured motor vehicle coverage agree that the insured has
9suffered bodily injury or death as the result of the negligent
10operation, maintenance, or use of an underinsured motor vehicle
11and, without arbitration, agree also on the amount of damages
12that the insured is legally entitled to collect. The maximum
13amount payable pursuant to such an underinsured motor vehicle
14insurance settlement agreement shall not exceed the amount by
15which the limits of the underinsured motorist coverage exceed
16the limits of the bodily injury liability insurance of the
17owner or operator of the underinsured motor vehicle. Any such
18agreement shall be final as to the amount due and shall be
19binding upon both the insured and the underinsured motorist
20insurer regardless of the amount of any judgment, or any
21settlement reached between any insured and the person or
22persons responsible for the crash accident. No such settlement
23agreement shall be concluded unless: (i) the insured has
24complied with all other applicable policy terms and conditions;
25and (ii) before the conclusion of the settlement agreement, the
26insured has filed suit against the underinsured motor vehicle

 

 

HB4835- 75 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1owner or operator and has not abandoned the suit, or settled
2the suit without preserving the rights of the insurer providing
3underinsured motor vehicle coverage in the manner described in
4paragraph (6) of this Section.

6    Section 60. The Child Care Act of 1969 is amended by
7changing Section 5.1 as follows:
 
8    (225 ILCS 10/5.1)  (from Ch. 23, par. 2215.1)
9    Sec. 5.1. (a) The Department shall ensure that no day care
10center, group home or child care institution as defined in this
11Act shall on a regular basis transport a child or children with
12any motor vehicle unless such vehicle is operated by a person
13who complies with the following requirements:
14        1. is 21 years of age or older;
15        2. currently holds a valid driver's license, which has
16    not been revoked or suspended for one or more traffic
17    violations during the 3 years immediately prior to the date
18    of application;
19        3. demonstrates physical fitness to operate vehicles
20    by submitting the results of a medical examination
21    conducted by a licensed physician;
22        4. has not been convicted of more than 2 offenses
23    against traffic regulations governing the movement of
24    vehicles within a twelve month period;

 

 

HB4835- 76 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1        5. has not been convicted of reckless driving or
2    driving under the influence or manslaughter or reckless
3    homicide resulting from the operation of a motor vehicle
4    within the past 3 years;
5        6. has signed and submitted a written statement
6    certifying that he has not, through the unlawful operation
7    of a motor vehicle, caused a crash an accident which
8    resulted in the death of any person within the 5 years
9    immediately prior to the date of application.
10    However, such day care centers, group homes and child care
11institutions may provide for transportation of a child or
12children for special outings, functions or purposes that are
13not scheduled on a regular basis without verification that
14drivers for such purposes meet the requirements of this
15Section.
16    (a-5) As a means of ensuring compliance with the
17requirements set forth in subsection (a), the Department shall
18implement appropriate measures to verify that every individual
19who is employed at a group home or child care institution meets
20those requirements.
21    For every individual employed at a group home or child care
22institution who regularly transports children in the course of
23performing his or her duties, the Department must make the
24verification every 2 years. Upon the Department's request, the
25Secretary of State shall provide the Department with the
26information necessary to enable the Department to make the

 

 

HB4835- 77 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1verifications required under subsection (a).
2    In the case of an individual employed at a group home or
3child care institution who becomes subject to subsection (a)
4for the first time after the effective date of this amendatory
5Act of the 94th General Assembly, the Department must make that
6verification with the Secretary of State before the individual
7operates a motor vehicle to transport a child or children under
8the circumstances described in subsection (a).
9    In the case of an individual employed at a group home or
10child care institution who is subject to subsection (a) on the
11effective date of this amendatory Act of the 94th General
12Assembly, the Department must make that verification with the
13Secretary of State within 30 days after that effective date.
14    If the Department discovers that an individual fails to
15meet the requirements set forth in subsection (a), the
16Department shall promptly notify the appropriate group home or
17child care institution.
18    (b) Any individual who holds a valid Illinois school bus
19driver permit issued by the Secretary of State pursuant to The
20Illinois Vehicle Code, and who is currently employed by a
21school district or parochial school, or by a contractor with a
22school district or parochial school, to drive a school bus
23transporting children to and from school, shall be deemed in
24compliance with the requirements of subsection (a).
25    (c) The Department may, pursuant to Section 8 of this Act,
26revoke the license of any day care center, group home or child

 

 

HB4835- 78 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1care institution that fails to meet the requirements of this
2Section.
3    (d) A group home or child care institution that fails to
4meet the requirements of this Section is guilty of a petty
5offense and is subject to a fine of not more than $1,000. Each
6day that a group home or child care institution fails to meet
7the requirements of this Section is a separate offense.

9    Section 65. The Liquor Control Act of 1934 is amended by
10changing Section 6-29.1 as follows:
 
11    (235 ILCS 5/6-29.1)
12    Sec. 6-29.1. Direct shipments of alcoholic liquor.
13    (a) The General Assembly makes the following findings:
14        (1) The General Assembly of Illinois, having reviewed
15    this Act in light of the United States Supreme Court's 2005
16    decision in Granholm v. Heald, has determined to conform
17    that law to the constitutional principles enunciated by the
18    Court in a manner that best preserves the temperance,
19    revenue, and orderly distribution values of this Act.
20        (2) Minimizing automobile crashes accidents and
21    fatalities, domestic violence, health problems, loss of
22    productivity, unemployment, and other social problems
23    associated with dependency and improvident use of
24    alcoholic beverages remains the policy of Illinois.

 

 

HB4835- 79 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1        (3) To the maximum extent constitutionally feasible,
2    Illinois desires to collect sufficient revenue from excise
3    and use taxes on alcoholic beverages for the purpose of
4    responding to such social problems.
5        (4) Combined with family education and individual
6    discipline, retail validation of age, and assessment of the
7    capacity of the consumer remains the best pre-sale social
8    protection against the problems associated with the abuse
9    of alcoholic liquor.
10        (5) Therefore, the paramount purpose of this
11    amendatory Act is to continue to carefully limit direct
12    shipment sales of wine produced by makers of wine and to
13    continue to prohibit such direct shipment sales for spirits
14    and beer.
15    For these reasons, the Commission shall establish a system
16to notify the out-of-state trade of this prohibition and to
17detect violations. The Commission shall request the Attorney
18General to extradite any offender.
19    (b) Pursuant to the Twenty-First Amendment of the United
20States Constitution allowing states to regulate the
21distribution and sale of alcoholic liquor and pursuant to the
22federal Webb-Kenyon Act declaring that alcoholic liquor
23shipped in interstate commerce must comply with state laws, the
24General Assembly hereby finds and declares that selling
25alcoholic liquor from a point outside this State through
26various direct marketing means, such as catalogs, newspapers,

 

 

HB4835- 80 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1mailers, and the Internet, directly to residents of this State
2poses a serious threat to the State's efforts to prevent youths
3from accessing alcoholic liquor; to State revenue collections;
4and to the economy of this State.
5    Any person manufacturing, distributing, or selling
6alcoholic liquor who knowingly ships or transports or causes
7the shipping or transportation of any alcoholic liquor from a
8point outside this State to a person in this State who does not
9hold a manufacturer's, distributor's, importing distributor's,
10or non-resident dealer's license issued by the Liquor Control
11Commission, other than a shipment of sacramental wine to a bona
12fide religious organization, a shipment authorized by Section
136-29, subparagraph (17) of Section 3-12, or any other shipment
14authorized by this Act, is in violation of this Act.
15    The Commission, upon determining, after investigation,
16that a person has violated this Section, shall give notice to
17the person by certified mail to cease and desist all shipments
18of alcoholic liquor into this State and to withdraw from this
19State within 5 working days after receipt of the notice all
20shipments of alcoholic liquor then in transit. A person who
21violates the cease and desist notice is subject to the
22applicable penalties in subsection (a) of Section 10-1 of this
23Act.

25    Section 70. The Suicide Prevention, Education, and

 

 

HB4835- 81 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1Treatment Act is amended by changing Section 5 as follows:
 
2    (410 ILCS 53/5)
3    Sec. 5. Legislative findings. The General Assembly makes
4the following findings:
5        (1) 1,474 Illinoisans lost their lives to suicide in
6    2017. During 2016, suicide was the eleventh leading cause
7    of death in Illinois, causing more deaths than homicide,
8    motor vehicle crashes accidents, accidental falls, and
9    numerous prevalent diseases, including liver disease,
10    hypertension, influenza/pneumonia, Parkinson's disease,
11    and HIV. Suicide was the third leading cause of death of
12    ages 15 to 34 and the fourth leading cause of death of ages
13    35 to 54. Those living outside of urban areas are
14    particularly at risk for suicide, with a rate that is 50%
15    higher than those living in urban areas.
16        (2) For every person who dies by suicide, more than 30
17    others attempt suicide.
18        (3) Each suicide attempt and death impacts countless
19    other individuals. Family members, friends, co-workers,
20    and others in the community all suffer the long-lasting
21    consequences of suicidal behaviors.
22        (4) Suicide attempts and deaths by suicide have an
23    economic impact on Illinois. The National Center for Injury
24    Prevention and Control estimates that in 2010 each suicide
25    death in Illinois resulted in $1,181,549 in medical costs

 

 

HB4835- 82 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1    and work loss costs. It also estimated that each
2    hospitalization for self-harm resulted in $31,019 in
3    medical costs and work loss costs and each emergency room
4    visit for self-harm resulted in $4,546 in medical costs and
5    work loss costs.
6        (5) In 2004, the Illinois General Assembly passed the
7    Suicide Prevention, Education, and Treatment Act (Public
8    Act 93-907), which required the Illinois Department of
9    Public Health to establish the Illinois Suicide Prevention
10    Strategic Planning Committee to develop the Illinois
11    Suicide Prevention Strategic Plan. That law required the
12    use of the 2002 United States Surgeon General's National
13    Suicide Prevention Strategy as a model for the Plan. Public
14    Act 95-109 changed the name of the committee to the
15    Illinois Suicide Prevention Alliance. The Illinois Suicide
16    Prevention Strategic Plan was submitted in 2007 and updated
17    in 2018.
18        (6) In 2004, there were 1,028 suicide deaths in
19    Illinois, which the Centers for Disease Control reports was
20    an age-adjusted rate of 8.11 deaths per 100,000. The
21    Centers for Disease Control reports that the 1,474 suicide
22    deaths in 2017 result in an age-adjusted rate of 11.19
23    deaths per 100,000. Thus, since the enactment of Public Act
24    93-907, the rate of suicides in Illinois has risen by 38%.
25        (7) Since the enactment of Public Act 93-907, there
26    have been numerous developments in suicide prevention,

 

 

HB4835- 83 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1    including the issuance of the 2012 National Strategy for
2    Suicide Prevention by the United States Surgeon General and
3    the National Action Alliance for Suicide Prevention
4    containing new strategies and recommended activities for
5    local governmental bodies.
6        (8) Despite the obvious impact of suicide on Illinois
7    citizens, Illinois has devoted minimal resources to its
8    prevention. There is no full-time coordinator or director
9    of suicide prevention activities in the State. Moreover,
10    the Suicide Prevention Strategic Plan is still modeled on
11    the now obsolete 2002 National Suicide Prevention
12    Strategy.
13        (9) It is necessary to revise the Suicide Prevention
14    Strategic Plan to reflect the most current National Suicide
15    Prevention Strategy as well as current research and
16    experience into the prevention of suicide.
17        (10) One of the goals adopted in the 2012 National
18    Strategy for Suicide Prevention is to promote suicide
19    prevention as a core component of health care services so
20    there is an active engagement of health and social
21    services, as well as the coordination of care across
22    multiple settings, thereby ensuring continuity of care and
23    promoting patient safety.
24        (11) Integrating suicide prevention into behavioral
25    and physical health care services can save lives. National
26    data indicate that: over 30% of individuals are receiving

 

 

HB4835- 84 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1    mental health care at the time of their deaths by suicide;
2    45% have seen their primary care physicians within one
3    month of their deaths; and 25% of those who die of suicide
4    visited an emergency department in the year prior to their
5    deaths.
6        (12) The Zero Suicide model is a part of the National
7    Strategy for Suicide Prevention, a priority of the National
8    Action Alliance for Suicide Prevention, and a project of
9    the Suicide Prevention Resource Center that implements the
10    goal of making suicide prevention a core component of
11    health care services.
12        (13) The Zero Suicide model is built on the
13    foundational belief and aspirational goal that suicide
14    deaths of individuals who are under the care of our health
15    care systems are preventable with the adoption of
16    comprehensive training, patient engagement, transition,
17    and quality improvement.
18        (14) Health care systems, including mental and
19    behavioral health systems and hospitals, that have
20    implemented the Zero Suicide model have noted significant
21    reductions in suicide deaths for patients within their
22    care.
23        (15) The Suicide Prevention Resource Center
24    facilitates adoption of the Zero Suicide model by providing
25    comprehensive information, resources, and tools for its
26    implementation.

2    Section 75. The Compassionate Use of Medical Cannabis
3Program Act is amended by changing Section 5 as follows:
 
4    (410 ILCS 130/5)
5    Sec. 5. Findings.
6    (a) The recorded use of cannabis as a medicine goes back
7nearly 5,000 years. Modern medical research has confirmed the
8beneficial uses of cannabis in treating or alleviating the
9pain, nausea, and other symptoms associated with a variety of
10debilitating medical conditions, including cancer, multiple
11sclerosis, and HIV/AIDS, as found by the National Academy of
12Sciences' Institute of Medicine in March 1999.
13    (b) Studies published since the 1999 Institute of Medicine
14report continue to show the therapeutic value of cannabis in
15treating a wide array of debilitating medical conditions. These
16include relief of the neuropathic pain caused by multiple
17sclerosis, HIV/AIDS, and other illnesses that often fail to
18respond to conventional treatments and relief of nausea,
19vomiting, and other side effects of drugs used to treat
20HIV/AIDS and hepatitis C, increasing the chances of patients
21continuing on life-saving treatment regimens.
22    (c) Cannabis has many currently accepted medical uses in
23the United States, having been recommended by thousands of
24licensed physicians to at least 600,000 patients in states with

 

 

HB4835- 86 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1medical cannabis laws. The medical utility of cannabis is
2recognized by a wide range of medical and public health
3organizations, including the American Academy of HIV Medicine,
4the American College of Physicians, the American Nurses
5Association, the American Public Health Association, the
6Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, and many others.
7    (d) Data from the Federal Bureau of Investigation's Uniform
8Crime Reports and the Compendium of Federal Justice Statistics
9show that approximately 99 out of every 100 cannabis arrests in
10the U.S. are made under state law, rather than under federal
11law. Consequently, changing State law will have the practical
12effect of protecting from arrest the vast majority of seriously
13ill patients who have a medical need to use cannabis.
14    (d-5) In 2014, the Task Force on Veterans' Suicide was
15created by the Illinois General Assembly to gather data on
16veterans' suicide prevention. Data from a U.S. Department of
17Veterans Affairs study indicates that 22 veterans commit
18suicide each day.
19    (d-10) According to the State of Illinois Opioid Action
20Plan released in September 2017, "The opioid epidemic is the
21most significant public health and public safety crisis facing
22Illinois". According to the Action Plan, "Fueled by the growing
23opioid epidemic, drug overdoses have now become the leading
24cause of death nationwide for people under the age of 50. In
25Illinois, opioid overdoses have killed nearly 11,000 people
26since 2008. Just last year, nearly 1,900 people died of

 

 

HB4835- 87 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1overdoses—almost twice the number of fatal car crashes
2accidents. Beyond these deaths are thousands of emergency
3department visits, hospital stays, as well as the pain suffered
4by individuals, families, and communities".
5    According to the Action Plan, "At the current rate, the
6opioid epidemic will claim the lives of more than 2,700
7Illinoisans in 2020".
8    Further, the Action Plan states, "Physical tolerance to
9opioids can begin to develop as early as two to three days
10following the continuous use of opioids, which is a large
11factor that contributes to their addictive potential".
12    The 2017 State of Illinois Opioid Action Plan also states,
13"The increase in OUD [opioid use disorder] and opioid overdose
14deaths is largely due to the dramatic rise in the rate and
15amount of opioids prescribed for pain over the past decades".
16    Further, according to the Action Plan, "In the absence of
17alternative treatments, reducing the supply of prescription
18opioids too abruptly may drive more people to switch to using
19illicit drugs (including heroin), thus increasing the risk of
20overdose".
21    (e) Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut,
22Delaware, Hawaii, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Montana,
23Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont,
24Washington, and Washington, D.C. have removed state-level
25criminal penalties from the medical use and cultivation of
26cannabis. Illinois joins in this effort for the health and

 

 

HB4835- 88 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1welfare of its citizens.
2    (f) States are not required to enforce federal law or
3prosecute people for engaging in activities prohibited by
4federal law. Therefore, compliance with this Act does not put
5the State of Illinois in violation of federal law.
6    (g) State law should make a distinction between the medical
7and non-medical uses of cannabis. Hence, the purpose of this
8Act is to protect patients with debilitating medical
9conditions, as well as their physicians and providers, from
10arrest and prosecution, criminal and other penalties, and
11property forfeiture if the patients engage in the medical use
12of cannabis.

14    Section 80. The Alternate Fuels Act is amended by changing
15Section 30 as follows:
 
16    (415 ILCS 120/30)
17    Sec. 30. Rebate and grant program.
18    (a) Beginning January 1, 1997, and as long as funds are
19available, each owner of an alternate fuel vehicle shall be
20eligible to apply for a rebate. Beginning July 1, 2005, each
21owner of a vehicle using domestic renewable fuel is eligible to
22apply for a fuel cost differential rebate under item (3) of
23this subsection. The Agency shall cause rebates to be issued
24under the provisions of this Act. An owner may apply for only

 

 

HB4835- 89 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1one of 3 types of rebates with regard to an individual
2alternate fuel vehicle: (i) a conversion cost rebate, (ii) an
3OEM differential cost rebate, or (iii) a fuel cost differential
4rebate. Only one rebate may be issued with regard to a
5particular alternate fuel vehicle during the life of that
6vehicle. A rebate shall not exceed $4,000 per vehicle. Over the
7life of this rebate program, an owner of an alternate fuel
8vehicle or a vehicle using domestic renewable fuel may not
9receive rebates for more than 150 vehicles per location or for
10300 vehicles in total.
11        (1) A conversion cost rebate may be issued to an owner
12    or his or her designee in order to reduce the cost of
13    converting a conventional vehicle or a hybrid vehicle to an
14    alternate fuel vehicle. Conversion of a conventional
15    vehicle or a hybrid vehicle to alternate fuel capability
16    must take place in Illinois for the owner to be eligible
17    for the conversion cost rebate. Amounts spent by applicants
18    within a calendar year may be claimed on a rebate
19    application submitted within 12 months after the month in
20    which the conversion of the vehicle took place. Approved
21    conversion cost rebates applied for during or after
22    calendar year 1997 shall be 80% of all approved conversion
23    costs claimed and documented. Approval of conversion cost
24    rebates may continue after calendar year 2002, if funds are
25    still available. An applicant may include on an application
26    submitted in 1997 all amounts spent within that calendar

 

 

HB4835- 90 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1    year on the conversion, even if the expenditure occurred
2    before promulgation of the Agency rules.
3        (2) An OEM differential cost rebate may be issued to an
4    owner or his or her designee in order to reduce the cost
5    differential between a conventional vehicle or engine and
6    the same vehicle or engine, produced by an original
7    equipment manufacturer, that has the capability to use
8    alternate fuels.
9        A new OEM vehicle or engine must be purchased in
10    Illinois and must either be an alternate fuel vehicle or
11    used in an alternate fuel vehicle, respectively, for the
12    owner to be eligible for an OEM differential cost rebate.
13    Large vehicles, over 8,500 pounds gross vehicle weight,
14    purchased outside Illinois are eligible for an OEM
15    differential cost rebate if the same or a comparable
16    vehicle is not available for purchase in Illinois. Amounts
17    spent by applicants within a calendar year may be claimed
18    on a rebate application submitted within 12 months after
19    the month in which the new OEM vehicle or engine was

11offense of reckless homicide or a similar out-of-state offense,
12the person may never apply for a license or permit.
13    (d)(1) Whenever a person under the age of 21 is convicted
14under Section 11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a
15local ordinance or a similar out-of-state offense, the

11    local ordinance or similar out-of-state offense, that
12    person, if issued a restricted driving permit, may not
13    operate a vehicle unless it has been equipped with an
14    ignition interlock device as defined in Section 1-129.1.
15        (4) The person issued a permit conditioned upon the use
16    of an interlock device must pay to the Secretary of State

20    fees.
21        (5) If the restricted driving permit is issued for
22    employment purposes, then the prohibition against driving
23    a vehicle that is not equipped with an ignition interlock
24    device does not apply to the operation of an occupational
25    vehicle owned or leased by that person's employer when used

6intersection against a red signal indication when the red
7signal fails to change to a green signal within a reasonable
8period of time not less than 120 seconds because of a signal
9malfunction or because the signal has failed to detect the
10arrival of the motorcycle due to the motorcycle's size or

13local ordinance recorded by an automatic traffic law
14enforcement system, the county or municipality having
15jurisdiction shall issue a written notice of the violation to

16    purpose of determining the alcohol, drug, or alcohol and
17    drug content therein. This limitation shall not apply to
18    the taking of breath, other bodily substance, or urine
19    specimens.
20        When a blood test of a person who has been taken to an
21    adjoining state for medical treatment is requested by an
22    Illinois law enforcement officer, the blood may be
23    withdrawn only by a physician authorized to practice
24    medicine in the adjoining state, a licensed physician

1    direction of the physician, or licensed paramedic. The law
2    enforcement officer requesting the test shall take custody
3    of the blood sample, and the blood sample shall be analyzed
4    by a laboratory certified by the Department of State Police
5    for that purpose.
6        3. The person tested may have a physician, or a
7    qualified technician, chemist, registered nurse, or other
8    qualified person of their own choosing administer a
9    chemical test or tests in addition to any administered at
10    the direction of a law enforcement officer. The failure or
11    inability to obtain an additional test by a person shall
12    not preclude the admission of evidence relating to the test
13    or tests taken at the direction of a law enforcement
14    officer.
15        4. Upon the request of the person who shall submit to a
16    chemical test or tests at the request of a law enforcement

2    (a-5) Law enforcement officials may use validated roadside
3chemical tests or standardized field sobriety tests approved by
4the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration when
5conducting investigations of a violation of Section 11-501 or
6similar local ordinance by drivers suspected of driving under
7the influence of cannabis. The General Assembly finds that (i)
8validated roadside chemical tests are effective means to
9determine if a person is under the influence of cannabis and
10(ii) standardized field sobriety tests approved by the National
11Highway Traffic Safety Administration are divided attention
12tasks that are intended to determine if a person is under the
13influence of cannabis. The purpose of these tests is to
14determine the effect of the use of cannabis on a person's
15capacity to think and act with ordinary care and therefore
16operate a motor vehicle safely. Therefore, the results of these
17validated roadside chemical tests and standardized field
18sobriety tests, appropriately administered, shall be
19admissible in the trial of any civil or criminal action or
20proceeding arising out of an arrest for a cannabis-related
21offense as defined in Section 11-501 or a similar local
22ordinance or proceedings under Section 2-118.1 or 2-118.2.
23Where a test is made the following provisions shall apply:
24        1. The person tested may have a physician, or a
25    qualified technician, chemist, registered nurse, or other
26    qualified person of their own choosing administer a

 

 

HB4835- 473 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1    chemical test or tests in addition to the standardized
2    field sobriety test or tests administered at the direction
3    of a law enforcement officer. The failure or inability to
4    obtain an additional test by a person does not preclude the
5    admission of evidence relating to the test or tests taken
6    at the direction of a law enforcement officer.
7        2. Upon the request of the person who shall submit to
8    validated roadside chemical tests or a standardized field
9    sobriety test or tests at the request of a law enforcement
10    officer, full information concerning the test or tests
11    shall be made available to the person or the person's
12    attorney.
13        3. At the trial of any civil or criminal action or
14    proceeding arising out of an arrest for an offense as
15    defined in Section 11-501 or a similar local ordinance or
16    proceedings under Section 2-118.1 or 2-118.2 in which the
17    results of these validated roadside chemical tests or
18    standardized field sobriety tests are admitted, the person
19    may present and the trier of fact may consider evidence
20    that the person lacked the physical capacity to perform the
21    validated roadside chemical tests or standardized field
22    sobriety tests.
23    (b) Upon the trial of any civil or criminal action or
24proceeding arising out of acts alleged to have been committed
25by any person while driving or in actual physical control of a
26vehicle while under the influence of alcohol, the concentration

 

 

HB4835- 474 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1of alcohol in the person's blood or breath at the time alleged
2as shown by analysis of the person's blood, urine, breath, or
3other bodily substance shall give rise to the following
4presumptions:
5        1. If there was at that time an alcohol concentration
6    of 0.05 or less, it shall be presumed that the person was
7    not under the influence of alcohol.
8        2. If there was at that time an alcohol concentration
9    in excess of 0.05 but less than 0.08, such facts shall not
10    give rise to any presumption that the person was or was not
11    under the influence of alcohol, but such fact may be
12    considered with other competent evidence in determining
13    whether the person was under the influence of alcohol.
14        3. If there was at that time an alcohol concentration
15    of 0.08 or more, it shall be presumed that the person was
16    under the influence of alcohol.
17        4. The foregoing provisions of this Section shall not
18    be construed as limiting the introduction of any other
19    relevant evidence bearing upon the question whether the
20    person was under the influence of alcohol.
21    (b-5) Upon the trial of any civil or criminal action or
22proceeding arising out of acts alleged to have been committed
23by any person while driving or in actual physical control of a
24vehicle while under the influence of alcohol, other drug or
25drugs, intoxicating compound or compounds or any combination
26thereof, the concentration of cannabis in the person's whole

 

 

HB4835- 475 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1blood or other bodily substance at the time alleged as shown by
2analysis of the person's blood or other bodily substance shall
3give rise to the following presumptions:
4        1. If there was a tetrahydrocannabinol concentration
5    of 5 nanograms or more in whole blood or 10 nanograms or
6    more in an other bodily substance as defined in this
7    Section, it shall be presumed that the person was under the
8    influence of cannabis.
9        2. If there was at that time a tetrahydrocannabinol
10    concentration of less than 5 nanograms in whole blood or
11    less than 10 nanograms in an other bodily substance, such
12    facts shall not give rise to any presumption that the
13    person was or was not under the influence of cannabis, but
14    such fact may be considered with other competent evidence
15    in determining whether the person was under the influence
16    of cannabis.
17    (c) 1. If a person under arrest refuses to submit to a
18chemical test under the provisions of Section 11-501.1,
19evidence of refusal shall be admissible in any civil or
20criminal action or proceeding arising out of acts alleged to
21have been committed while the person under the influence of
22alcohol, other drug or drugs, or intoxicating compound or
23compounds, or any combination thereof was driving or in actual
24physical control of a motor vehicle.
25    2. Notwithstanding any ability to refuse under this Code to
26submit to these tests or any ability to revoke the implied

 

 

HB4835- 476 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1consent to these tests, if a law enforcement officer has
2probable cause to believe that a motor vehicle driven by or in
3actual physical control of a person under the influence of
4alcohol, other drug or drugs, or intoxicating compound or
5compounds, or any combination thereof has caused the death or
6personal injury to another, the law enforcement officer shall
7request, and that person shall submit, upon the request of a
8law enforcement officer, to a chemical test or tests of his or
9her blood, breath, other bodily substance, or urine for the
10purpose of determining the alcohol content thereof or the
11presence of any other drug or combination of both.
12    This provision does not affect the applicability of or
13imposition of driver's license sanctions under Section
1411-501.1 of this Code.
15    3. For purposes of this Section, a personal injury includes
16any Type A injury as indicated on the traffic crash accident
17report completed by a law enforcement officer that requires
18immediate professional attention in either a doctor's office or
19a medical facility. A Type A injury includes severe bleeding
20wounds, distorted extremities, and injuries that require the
21injured party to be carried from the scene.
22    (d) If a person refuses validated roadside chemical tests
23or standardized field sobriety tests under Section 11-501.9 of
24this Code, evidence of refusal shall be admissible in any civil
25or criminal action or proceeding arising out of acts committed
26while the person was driving or in actual physical control of a

HB4835- 495 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1from ingestion of the prescribed or recommended dosage of
2medicine that contained alcohol. The petition for that hearing
3shall not stay or delay the effective date of the impending
4suspension. The scope of this hearing shall be limited to the
5issues of:
6        (1) whether the police officer had probable cause to
7    believe that the person was driving or in actual physical
8    control of a motor vehicle upon the public highways of the

10    person was in violation of any provision of the Illinois
11    Vehicle Code or a similar provision of a local ordinance;
12    and
13        (2) whether the person was issued a Uniform Traffic
14    Ticket for any violation of the Illinois Vehicle Code or a
15    similar provision of a local ordinance; and
16        (3) whether the police officer had probable cause to
17    believe that the driver had consumed any amount of an
18    alcoholic beverage based upon the driver's physical
19    actions or other first-hand knowledge of the police
20    officer; and
21        (4) whether the person, after being advised by the
22    officer that the privilege to operate a motor vehicle would
23    be suspended if the person refused to submit to and
24    complete the test or tests, did refuse to submit to or
25    complete the test or tests to determine the person's
26    alcohol concentration; and

 

 

HB4835- 496 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1        (5) whether the person, after being advised by the
2    officer that the privileges to operate a motor vehicle
3    would be suspended if the person submits to a chemical test
4    or tests and the test or tests disclose an alcohol
5    concentration of more than 0.00, did submit to and complete
6    the test or tests that determined an alcohol concentration
7    of more than 0.00; and
8        (6) whether the test result of an alcohol concentration
9    of more than 0.00 was based upon the person's consumption
10    of alcohol in the performance of a religious service or
11    ceremony; and
12        (7) whether the test result of an alcohol concentration
13    of more than 0.00 was based upon the person's consumption
14    of alcohol through ingestion of the prescribed or
15    recommended dosage of medicine.
16    At the conclusion of the hearing held under Section 2-118
17of this Code, the Secretary of State may rescind, continue, or
18modify the suspension and disqualification. If the Secretary of
19State does not rescind the suspension and disqualification, a
20restricted driving permit may be granted by the Secretary of
21State upon application being made and good cause shown. A
22restricted driving permit may be granted to relieve undue
23hardship by allowing driving for employment, educational, and
24medical purposes as outlined in item (3) of part (c) of Section
256-206 of this Code. The provisions of item (3) of part (c) of

7    (f) The results of any chemical testing performed in
8accordance with subsection (a) of this Section are not
9admissible in any civil or criminal proceeding, except that the
10results of the testing may be considered at a hearing held
11under Section 2-118 of this Code. However, the results of the
12testing may not be used to impose driver's license sanctions
13under Section 11-501.1 of this Code. A law enforcement officer
14may, however, pursue a statutory summary suspension or
15revocation of driving privileges under Section 11-501.1 of this
16Code if other physical evidence or first hand knowledge forms
17the basis of that suspension or revocation.
18    (g) This Section applies only to drivers who are under age
1921 at the time of the issuance of a Uniform Traffic Ticket for
20a violation of the Illinois Vehicle Code or a similar provision
21of a local ordinance, and a chemical test request is made under

23    (h) The action of the Secretary of State in suspending,
24revoking, cancelling, or disqualifying any license or permit
25shall be subject to judicial review in the Circuit Court of

25under their jurisdiction may, in their discretion, upon

 

 

HB4835- 534 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1application and good cause being shown therefor, issue a
2special permit authorizing the applicant to operate or move a
3vehicle or combination of vehicles of a size or weight of
4vehicle or load exceeding the maximum specified in this Code or
5otherwise not in conformity with this Code upon any highway
6under the jurisdiction of the party granting such permit and
7for the maintenance of which the party is responsible.
8Applications and permits other than those in written or printed
9form may only be accepted from and issued to the company or
10individual making the movement. Except for an application to
11move directly across a highway, it shall be the duty of the
12applicant to establish in the application that the load to be
13moved by such vehicle or combination cannot reasonably be
14dismantled or disassembled, the reasonableness of which shall
15be determined by the Secretary of the Department. For the
16purpose of over length movements, more than one object may be
17carried side by side as long as the height, width, and weight
18laws are not exceeded and the cause for the over length is not
19due to multiple objects. For the purpose of over height
20movements, more than one object may be carried as long as the
21cause for the over height is not due to multiple objects and
22the length, width, and weight laws are not exceeded. For the
23purpose of an over width movement, more than one object may be
24carried as long as the cause for the over width is not due to
25multiple objects and length, height, and weight laws are not
26exceeded. Except for transporting fluid milk products, no State

2weight permits for vehicles and loads that are divisible and
3that can be carried, when divided, within the existing size or
4weight maximums specified in this Chapter. Any excess size or
5weight permit issued in violation of the provisions of this
6Section shall be void at issue and any movement made thereunder
7shall not be authorized under the terms of the void permit. In
8any prosecution for a violation of this Chapter when the
9authorization of an excess size or weight permit is at issue,
10it is the burden of the defendant to establish that the permit
11was valid because the load to be moved could not reasonably be
12dismantled or disassembled, or was otherwise nondivisible.
13    (a-1) As used in this Section, "extreme heavy duty tow and
14recovery vehicle" means a tow truck manufactured as a unit
15having a lifting capacity of not less than 50 tons, and having
16either 4 axles and an unladen weight of not more than 80,000
17pounds or 5 axles and an unladen weight not more than 90,000
18pounds. Notwithstanding otherwise applicable gross and axle
19weight limits, an extreme heavy duty tow and recovery vehicle
20may lawfully travel to and from the scene of a disablement and
21clear a disabled vehicle if the towing service has obtained an
22extreme heavy duty tow and recovery permit for the vehicle. The
23form and content of the permit shall be determined by the
24Department with respect to highways under its jurisdiction and

5it refers and shall be open to inspection by any police officer
6or authorized agent of any authority granting the permit and no
7person shall violate any of the terms or conditions of such
8special permit. Violation of the terms and conditions of the
9permit shall not be deemed a revocation of the permit; however,
10any vehicle and load found to be off the route prescribed in
11the permit shall be held to be operating without a permit. Any
12off-route vehicle and load shall be required to obtain a new
13permit or permits, as necessary, to authorize the movement back
14onto the original permit routing. No rule or regulation, nor
15anything herein, shall be construed to authorize any police
16officer, court, or authorized agent of any authority granting
17the permit to remove the permit from the possession of the
18permittee unless the permittee is charged with a fraudulent
19permit violation as provided in subsection (i). However, upon
20arrest for an offense of violation of permit, operating without
21a permit when the vehicle is off route, or any size or weight
22offense under this Chapter when the permittee plans to raise
23the issuance of the permit as a defense, the permittee, or his
24agent, must produce the permit at any court hearing concerning
25the alleged offense.
26    If the permit designates and includes a routing to a

 

 

HB4835- 541 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1certified scale, the permittee, while en route to the

3provisions of the permit provided the axle or gross weights do
4not exceed any of the permitted limits by more than the
5following amounts:
6        Single axle               2000 pounds
7        Tandem axle               3000 pounds

9    (g) The Department is authorized to adopt, amend, and make
10available to interested persons a policy concerning reasonable
11rules, limitations and conditions or provisions of operation
12upon highways under its jurisdiction in addition to those
13contained in this Section for the movement by special permit of
14vehicles, combinations, or loads which cannot reasonably be
15dismantled or disassembled, including manufactured and modular
16home sections and portions thereof. All rules, limitations and
17conditions or provisions adopted in the policy shall have due
18regard for the safety of the traveling public and the
19protection of the highway system and shall have been
20promulgated in conformity with the provisions of the Illinois
21Administrative Procedure Act. The requirements of the policy
22for flagmen and escort vehicles shall be the same for all moves
23of comparable size and weight. When escort vehicles are
24required, they shall meet the following requirements:
25        (1) All operators shall be 18 years of age or over and

6regulations regarding liability insurance or self insurance
7for vehicles with oversized loads promulgated under the
8Illinois Administrative Procedure Act. Police vehicles may be
9required for escort under circumstances as required by rules
10and regulations of the Department.
11    (h) Violation of any rule, limitation or condition or
12provision of any permit issued in accordance with the
13provisions of this Section shall not render the entire permit
14null and void but the violator shall be deemed guilty of
15violation of permit and guilty of exceeding any size, weight,
16or load limitations in excess of those authorized by the
17permit. The prescribed route or routes on the permit are not
18mere rules, limitations, conditions, or provisions of the
19permit, but are also the sole extent of the authorization
20granted by the permit. If a vehicle and load are found to be
21off the route or routes prescribed by any permit authorizing
22movement, the vehicle and load are operating without a permit.
23Any off-route movement shall be subject to the size and weight
24maximums, under the applicable provisions of this Chapter, as
25determined by the type or class highway upon which the vehicle
26and load are being operated.

15violation of a permit issued in accordance with this Section,
16the person to whom such permit was granted, or the driver of
17such vehicle, is guilty of such violation and either, but not
18both, persons may be prosecuted for such violation as stated in
19this subsection (j). Any person, firm, or corporation convicted
20of such violation shall be guilty of a petty offense and shall
21be fined, for the first offense, not less than $50 nor more
22than $200 and, for the second offense by the same person, firm,
23or corporation within a period of one year, not less than $200

16    (l) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section,
17the Department, with respect to highways under its
18jurisdiction, and local authorities, with respect to highways
19under their jurisdiction, may at their discretion authorize the
20movement of a vehicle in violation of any size or weight
21requirement, or both, that would not ordinarily be eligible for
22a permit, when there is a showing of extreme necessity that the
23vehicle and load should be moved without unnecessary delay.
24    For the purpose of this subsection, showing of extreme
25necessity shall be limited to the following: shipments of

20    (p) In determining whether a load may be reasonably
21dismantled or disassembled for the purpose of subsection (a),
22the Department shall consider whether there is a significant
23negative impact on the condition of the pavement and structures
24along the proposed route, whether the load or vehicle as

2    Sec. 18c-7402. Safety requirements for railroad
3operations.
4    (1) Obstruction of crossings.
5        (a) Obstruction of emergency vehicles. Every railroad
6    shall be operated in such a manner as to minimize
7    obstruction of emergency vehicles at crossings. Where such
8    obstruction occurs and the train crew is aware of the
9    obstruction, the train crew shall immediately take any
10    action, consistent with safe operating procedure,
11    necessary to remove the obstruction. In the Chicago and St.
12    Louis switching districts, every railroad dispatcher or
13    other person responsible for the movement of railroad
14    equipment in a specific area who receives notification that
15    railroad equipment is obstructing the movement of an
16    emergency vehicle at any crossing within such area shall
17    immediately notify the train crew through use of existing
18    communication facilities. Upon notification, the train
19    crew shall take immediate action in accordance with this
20    paragraph.
21        (b) Obstruction of highway at grade crossing
22    prohibited. It is unlawful for a rail carrier to permit any
23    train, railroad car or engine to obstruct public travel at
24    a railroad-highway grade crossing for a period in excess of
25    10 minutes, except where such train or railroad car is

 

 

HB4835- 557 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1    continuously moving or cannot be moved by reason of
2    circumstances over which the rail carrier has no reasonable
3    control.
4        In a county with a population of greater than
5    1,000,000, as determined by the most recent federal census,
6    during the hours of 7:00 a.m. through 9:00 a.m. and 4:00
7    p.m. through 6:00 p.m. it is unlawful for a rail carrier to
8    permit any single train or railroad car to obstruct public
9    travel at a railroad-highway grade crossing in excess of a
10    total of 10 minutes during a 30 minute period, except where
11    the train or railroad car cannot be moved by reason or
12    circumstances over which the rail carrier has no reasonable
13    control. Under no circumstances will a moving train be
14    stopped for the purposes of issuing a citation related to
15    this Section.
16        However, no employee acting under the rules or orders
17    of the rail carrier or its supervisory personnel may be
18    prosecuted for a violation of this subsection (b).
19        (c) Punishment for obstruction of grade crossing. Any
20    rail carrier violating paragraph (b) of this subsection
21    shall be guilty of a petty offense and fined not less than
22    $200 nor more than $500 if the duration of the obstruction
23    is in excess of 10 minutes but no longer than 15 minutes.
24    If the duration of the obstruction exceeds 15 minutes the
25    violation shall be a business offense and the following
26    fines shall be imposed: if the duration of the obstruction

 

 

HB4835- 558 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1    is in excess of 15 minutes but no longer than 20 minutes,
2    the fine shall be $500; if the duration of the obstruction
3    is in excess of 20 minutes but no longer than 25 minutes,
4    the fine shall be $700; if the duration of the obstruction
5    is in excess of 25 minutes, but no longer than 30 minutes,
6    the fine shall be $900; if the duration of the obstruction
7    is in excess of 30 minutes but no longer than 35 minutes,
8    the fine shall be $1,000; if the duration of the
9    obstruction is in excess of 35 minutes, the fine shall be
10    $1,000 plus an additional $500 for each 5 minutes of
11    obstruction in excess of 25 minutes of obstruction.

15    kept on each locomotive, and shall cause the same to be
16    rung or sounded by the engineer or fireman, at the distance
17    of at least 1,320 feet, from the place where the railroad
18    crosses or intersects any public highway, and shall be kept
19    ringing or sounding until the highway is reached; provided
20    that at crossings where the Commission shall by order
21    direct, only after a hearing has been held to determine the
22    public is reasonably and sufficiently protected, the rail
23    carrier may be excused from giving warning provided by this
24    paragraph.
25        (a-5) The requirements of paragraph (a) of this
26    subsection (2) regarding ringing a bell and sounding a

 

 

HB4835- 559 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1    whistle or horn do not apply at a railroad crossing that
2    has a permanently installed automated audible warning
3    device authorized by the Commission under Section
4    18c-7402.1 that sounds automatically when an approaching
5    train is at least 1,320 feet from the crossing and that
6    keeps sounding until the lead locomotive has crossed the
7    highway. The engineer or fireman may ring the bell or sound
8    the whistle or horn at a railroad crossing that has a
9    permanently installed audible warning device.
10        (b) Speed limits. Each rail carrier shall operate its
11    trains in compliance with speed limits set by the
12    Commission. The Commission may set train speed limits only
13    where such limits are necessitated by extraordinary
14    circumstances affecting the public safety, and shall
15    maintain such train speed limits in effect only for such
16    time as the extraordinary circumstances prevail.
17        The Commission and the Department of Transportation
18    shall conduct a study of the relation between train speeds
19    and railroad-highway grade crossing safety. The Commission
20    shall report the findings of the study to the General
21    Assembly no later than January 5, 1997.
22        (c) Special speed limit; pilot project. The Commission
23    and the Board of the Commuter Rail Division of the Regional
24    Transportation Authority shall conduct a pilot project in
25    the Village of Fox River Grove, the site of the fatal
26    school bus crash accident at a railroad crossing on October

 

 

HB4835- 560 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1    25, 1995, in order to improve railroad crossing safety. For
2    this project, the Commission is directed to set the maximum
3    train speed limit for Regional Transportation Authority
4    trains at 50 miles per hour at intersections on that
5    portion of the intrastate rail line located in the Village
6    of Fox River Grove. If the Regional Transportation
7    Authority deliberately fails to comply with this maximum
8    speed limit, then any entity, governmental or otherwise,
9    that provides capital or operational funds to the Regional
10    Transportation Authority shall appropriately reduce or
11    eliminate that funding. The Commission shall report to the
12    Governor and the General Assembly on the results of this
13    pilot project in January 1999, January 2000, and January
14    2001. The Commission shall also submit a final report on
15    the pilot project to the Governor and the General Assembly
16    in January 2001. The provisions of this subsection (c),
17    other than this sentence, are inoperative after February 1,
18    2001.
19        (d) Freight train crew size. No rail carrier shall
20    operate or cause to operate a train or light engine used in
21    connection with the movement of freight unless it has an
22    operating crew consisting of at least 2 individuals. The
23    minimum freight train crew size indicated in this
24    subsection (d) shall remain in effect until a federal law
25    or rule encompassing the subject matter has been adopted.
26    The Commission, with respect to freight train crew member

 

 

HB4835- 561 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1    size under this subsection (d), has the power to conduct
2    evidentiary hearings, make findings, and issue and enforce
3    orders, including sanctions under Section 18c-1704 of this
4    Chapter. As used in this subsection (d), "train or light
5    engine" does not include trains operated by a hostler
6    service or utility employees.
7    (3) Report and investigation of rail accidents.
8        (a) Reports. Every rail carrier shall report to the
9    Commission, by the speediest means possible, whether
10    telephone, telegraph, or otherwise, every accident
11    involving its equipment, track, or other property which
12    resulted in loss of life to any person. In addition, such
13    carriers shall file a written report with the Commission.
14    Reports submitted under this paragraph shall be strictly
15    confidential, shall be specifically prohibited from
16    disclosure, and shall not be admissible in any
17    administrative or judicial proceeding relating to the
18    accidents reported.
19        (b) Investigations. The Commission may investigate all
20    railroad accidents reported to it or of which it acquires
21    knowledge independent of reports made by rail carriers, and
22    shall have the power, consistent with standards and
23    procedures established under the Federal Railroad Safety
24    Act, as amended, to enter such temporary orders as will
25    minimize the risk of future accidents pending notice,

13    Sec. 2. Legislative Finding - Purpose. The General Assembly
14finds that a substantial number of passengers under the age of
158 years riding in motor vehicles, which are most frequently
16operated by a parent, annually die or sustain serious physical
17injury as a direct result of not being placed in an appropriate
18child passenger restraint system. Motor vehicle crashes are the
19leading cause of death for children of every age from 4 to 14
20years old. The General Assembly further finds that the safety
21of the motoring public is seriously threatened as indicated by
22the significant number of traffic crashes accidents annually
23caused, directly or indirectly, by driver distraction or other

8    Section 120. The Renter's Financial Responsibility and
9Protection Act is amended by changing Section 5 as follows:
 
10    (625 ILCS 27/5)
11    Sec. 5. Legislative findings. The General Assembly finds
12and declares the following:
13    (a) Amendments enacted in 1988 which limit negligent
14drivers' liability for damage to vehicles rented from motor
15vehicle rental companies to $200 have had the unintended,
16anti-consumer effect of unfairly transferring most of the costs
17of liability for renters' negligence to car rental companies.
18    (b) This transfer of liability from negligent renters has
19forced Illinois rental companies and dealers to experience
20significant financial losses in the form of actual costs to
21repair, service, and replace vehicles and loss of economic
22opportunity by being deprived of the rental use of damaged or
23destroyed rental cars; as a result, many Illinois vehicle
24rental companies in Illinois have been forced to close because

 

 

HB4835- 564 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1of the current amendments, and high risk to capital threatens
2to close existing companies; economic losses have also resulted
3in Illinois renters paying daily and weekly vehicle rental
4rates almost two-fold higher than renters in other states,
5including those states surrounding Illinois.
6    (c) As the vast majority of renters in Illinois are
7non-Illinois residents, the increased damage costs of rental
8car companies and dealers are absorbed and paid by all Illinois
9consumers and business.
10    (d) The current law also threatens the public safety of all
11Illinois citizens as it has contributed to an almost three-fold
12increase in driver crash accident and fatality rates in
13Illinois.

5    the Department.
6        (7) A sentence under Section 3-6-4 (730 ILCS 5/3-6-4)
7    for escape or attempted escape shall be served consecutive
8    to the terms under which the offender is held by the

HB4835- 610 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

23        (2) For sentences imposed under the law in effect on or

1    substantial change in the nature of the criminal objective
2    shall not exceed the sum of the maximum terms authorized
3    under Article 4.5 of Chapter V for the 2 most serious
4    felonies involved, but no such limitation shall apply for
5    offenses that were not committed as part of a single course
6    of conduct during which there was no substantial change in

26    involved.

 

 

HB4835- 612 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1        (3) The minimum period of imprisonment shall be the
2    aggregate of the minimum and determinate periods of
3    imprisonment imposed by the court, subject to subsection
4    (f) of this Section.
5        (4) The defendant shall be awarded credit against the
6    aggregate maximum term and the aggregate minimum term of
7    imprisonment for all time served in an institution since
8    the commission of the offense or offenses and as a
9    consequence thereof at the rate specified in Section 3-6-3

14    Section 150. The Cannabis and Controlled Substances Tort
15Claims Act is amended by changing Section 2 as follows:
 
16    (740 ILCS 20/2)  (from Ch. 70, par. 902)
17    Sec. 2. Findings and intent.
18    (a) The General Assembly finds that the abuse of cannabis
19and controlled substances:
20        (1) greatly increases incidents involving crimes of
21    violence and threats of crimes of violence;
22        (2) causes death or severe and often irreversible
23    injuries to newborn children;
24        (3) accounts for the commission of the majority of

 

 

HB4835- 613 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1    property crimes committed within this State;
2        (4) causes motor vehicle crashes and , job related, and
3    numerous other types of accidents that frequently result in
4    death or permanent injuries;
5        (5) contributes to the disintegration of the family;
6        (6) interferes with the duty of parents and legal
7    guardians to provide for the physical, mental, and
8    emotional well-being of their unemancipated children and
9    with the rights of parents and legal guardians to raise the
10    children free from the physical, mental, and emotional
11    trauma that is caused by the abuse of cannabis and
12    controlled substances;
13        (7) encourages and fosters the growth of urban gangs
14    engaged in violent and nonviolent crime;
15        (8) furthers the interests of elements of organized
16    criminals;
17        (9) increases the dropout, truancy, and failure rates
18    of children attending schools within this State;
19        (10) stifles educational opportunities for both drug
20    users and nonusers;
21        (11) contributes to the unemployment rate within this
22    State;
23        (12) reduces the productivity of employees, retards
24    competitiveness within the established business community,
25    and hinders the formation and growth of new businesses;
26        (13) reduces the value of real property;

 

 

HB4835- 614 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1        (14) costs the citizens of this State billions of
2    dollars in federal, State, and local taxes for increased
3    costs for law enforcement, welfare, and education;
4        (15) costs the citizens of this State billions of
5    dollars in increased costs for consumer goods and services,
6    insurance premiums, and medical treatment;
7        (16) hinders citizens from freely using public parks,
8    streets, schools, forest preserves, playgrounds, and other
9    public areas; and
10        (17) contributes to a lower quality of life and
11    standard of living for the citizens of this State.
12    (b) The General Assembly finds that, in light of the
13findings made in subsection (a), any violation of the Cannabis
14Control Act, the Methamphetamine Control and Community
15Protection Act, or the Illinois Controlled Substances Act that
16involves the nonconsensual use of the real or personal property
17of another person, whether that person is an individual or a
18governmental or private entity representing a collection of
19individuals, is so injurious to the property interests and the
20well-being of that person that the violation gives rise to a
21cause of action sounding in tort. The General Assembly also
22finds that the delivery of a controlled substance or cannabis
23in violation of the Illinois Controlled Substances Act, the
24Methamphetamine Control and Community Protection Act, or the
25Cannabis Control Act to an unemancipated minor under the age of
2618 is so injurious to the rights and duties of parents and

 

 

HB4835- 615 -LRB101 16195 LNS 65567 b

1legal guardians relating to the physical, mental, and emotional
2well-being of that minor that the violation also gives rise to
3a cause of action sounding in tort. The General Assembly
4further finds that although the damage a person suffers through
5the nonconsensual use of his property to facilitate such a
6violation or the damage a parent or legal guardian suffers as
7the result of the delivery to the minor of cannabis or a
8substance in violation of the Cannabis Control Act, the
9Methamphetamine Control and Community Protection Act, or the
10Illinois Controlled Substances Act is often subtle and
11incapable of precise articulation, that damage is nonetheless
12real and substantial. It is therefore the intent of the General
13Assembly to create a cause of action with statutorily
14prescribed damages for the conduct described in this Act.
