5Declaration of Policy. It is hereby declared a policy of the
6State of Illinois that the driver who is impaired by alcohol,
7other drug or drugs, or intoxicating compound or compounds is a
8threat to the public safety and welfare. Therefore, to provide
9a deterrent to such practice, a statutory summary driver's
10license suspension is appropriate. It is also recognized that
11driving is a privilege and therefore, that the granting of
12driving privileges, in a manner consistent with public safety,
13is warranted during the period of suspension in the form of a
14monitoring device driving permit. A person who drives and fails
15to comply with the requirements of the monitoring device
16driving permit commits a violation of Section 6-303 of this
17Code.
18    The following procedures shall apply whenever a first
19offender, as defined in Section 11-500 of this Code, is
20arrested for any offense as defined in Section 11-501 or a
21similar provision of a local ordinance and is subject to the
22provisions of Section 11-501.1:
23    (a) Upon mailing of the notice of suspension of driving
24privileges as provided in subsection (h) of Section 11-501.1 of
25this Code, the Secretary shall also send written notice

4for issuance of the MDDP, installation of the breath alcohol
5ignition installation device (BAIID), as provided in this
6Section, exemption from BAIID installation requirements, and
7procedures to be followed by those seeking indigent status, as
8provided in this Section. The notice shall also include
9information summarizing the procedure to be followed if the
10person wishes to decline issuance of the MDDP. A copy of the
11notice shall also be sent to the court of venue together with
12the notice of suspension of driving privileges, as provided in
13subsection (h) of Section 11-501. However, a MDDP shall not be
14issued if the Secretary finds that:
15        (1) The offender's driver's license is otherwise
16    invalid;
17        (2) Death or great bodily harm resulted from the arrest
18    for Section 11-501;
19        (3) The offender has been previously convicted of

5Secretary a MDDP Administration Fee in an amount not to exceed
6$30 per month, to be deposited into the Monitoring Device
7Driving Permit Administration Fee Fund. The Secretary shall
8establish by rule the amount and the procedures, terms, and
9conditions relating to these fees. The offender must have an
10ignition interlock device installed within 14 days of the date
11the Secretary issues the MDDP. The ignition interlock device
12provider must notify the Secretary, in a manner and form
13prescribed by the Secretary, of the installation. If the
14Secretary does not receive notice of installation, the
15Secretary shall cancel the MDDP.

10where the person has been transported for medical care, to
11complete an investigation and to request that the person submit
12to the test or tests set forth in this Section. The
13requirements of this Section that the person be arrested are
14inapplicable, but the officer shall issue the person a Uniform
15Traffic Ticket for an offense as defined in Section 11-501 or a
16similar provision of a local ordinance prior to requesting that
17the person submit to the test or tests. The issuance of the
18Uniform Traffic Ticket shall not constitute an arrest, but
19shall be for the purpose of notifying the person that he or she
20is subject to the provisions of this Section and of the
21officer's belief of the existence of probable cause to arrest.
22Upon returning to this State, the officer shall file the
23Uniform Traffic Ticket with the Circuit Clerk of the county
24where the offense was committed, and shall seek the issuance of
25an arrest warrant or a summons for the person.
26    (a-5) (Blank). In addition to the requirements and

 

 

09800SB1955ham002- 106 -LRB098 05666 HEP 49187 a

1provisions of subsection (a), any person issued a registry card
2under the Compassionate Use of Medical Cannabis Pilot Program
3Act who drives or is in actual physical control of a motor
4vehicle upon the public highways of this State shall be deemed
5to have given consent, subject to the provisions of Section
611-501.2, to standardized field sobriety tests approved by the
7National Highway Traffic Safety Administration if arrested, as
8evidenced by the issuance of a Uniform Traffic Ticket, for any
9offense as defined in Section 11-501 or a similar provision of
10a local ordinance, or if arrested for violating Section 11-401.
11The person's status as a registry card holder alone is not a
12sufficient basis for conducting these tests. The officer must
13have an independent, cannabis-related factual basis giving
14reasonable suspicion that the person is driving under the
15influence of cannabis for conducting standardized field
16sobriety tests. This independent basis of suspicion shall be
17listed on the standardized field sobriety test results and any
18influence reports made by the arresting officer.
19    (b) Any person who is dead, unconscious, or who is
20otherwise in a condition rendering the person incapable of
21refusal, shall be deemed not to have withdrawn the consent
22provided by paragraph (a) of this Section and the test or tests
23may be administered, subject to the provisions of Section
2411-501.2.
25    (c) A person requested to submit to a test as provided
26above shall be warned by the law enforcement officer requesting

 

 

09800SB1955ham002- 107 -LRB098 05666 HEP 49187 a

1the test that a refusal to submit to the test will result in
2the statutory summary suspension of the person's privilege to
3operate a motor vehicle, as provided in Section 6-208.1 of this
4Code, and will also result in the disqualification of the
5person's privilege to operate a commercial motor vehicle, as
6provided in Section 6-514 of this Code, if the person is a CDL
7holder. The person shall also be warned that a refusal to
8submit to the test, when the person was involved in a motor
9vehicle accident that caused personal injury or death to
10another, will result in the statutory summary revocation of the
11person's privilege to operate a motor vehicle, as provided in
12Section 6-208.1, and will also result in the disqualification
13of the person's privilege to operate a commercial motor
14vehicle, as provided in Section 6-514 of this Code, if the
15person is a CDL holder. The person shall also be warned by the
16law enforcement officer that if the person submits to the test
17or tests provided in paragraph (a) of this Section and the
18alcohol concentration in the person's blood or breath is 0.08
19or greater, or any amount of a drug, substance, or compound
20resulting from the unlawful use or consumption of cannabis as
21covered by the Cannabis Control Act, a controlled substance
22listed in the Illinois Controlled Substances Act, an
23intoxicating compound listed in the Use of Intoxicating
24Compounds Act, or methamphetamine as listed in the
25Methamphetamine Control and Community Protection Act is
26detected in the person's blood or urine, or if the person fails

1the standardized field sobriety tests as required by paragraph
2(a-5), a statutory summary suspension of the person's privilege
3to operate a motor vehicle, as provided in Sections 6-208.1 and
411-501.1 of this Code, and a disqualification of the person's
5privilege to operate a commercial motor vehicle, as provided in
6Section 6-514 of this Code, if the person is a CDL holder, will
7be imposed.
8    A person who is under the age of 21 at the time the person
9is requested to submit to a test as provided above shall, in
10addition to the warnings provided for in this Section, be
11further warned by the law enforcement officer requesting the
12test that if the person submits to the test or tests provided
13in paragraph (a) or (a-5) of this Section and the alcohol
14concentration in the person's blood or breath is greater than
150.00 and less than 0.08, a suspension of the person's privilege
16to operate a motor vehicle, as provided under Sections 6-208.2
17and 11-501.8 of this Code, will be imposed. The results of this
18test shall be admissible in a civil or criminal action or
19proceeding arising from an arrest for an offense as defined in
20Section 11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a local
21ordinance or pursuant to Section 11-501.4 in prosecutions for
22reckless homicide brought under the Criminal Code of 1961 or
23the Criminal Code of 2012. These test results, however, shall
24be admissible only in actions or proceedings directly related
25to the incident upon which the test request was made.
26    (d) If the person refuses testing or submits to a test that

 

 

09800SB1955ham002- 109 -LRB098 05666 HEP 49187 a

1discloses an alcohol concentration of 0.08 or more, or any
2amount of a drug, substance, or intoxicating compound in the
3person's breath, blood, or urine resulting from the unlawful
4use or consumption of cannabis listed in the Cannabis Control
5Act, a controlled substance listed in the Illinois Controlled
6Substances Act, an intoxicating compound listed in the Use of
7Intoxicating Compounds Act, or methamphetamine as listed in the
8Methamphetamine Control and Community Protection Act, the law
9enforcement officer shall immediately submit a sworn report to
10the circuit court of venue and the Secretary of State,
11certifying that the test or tests was or were requested under
12paragraph (a) or (a-5) and the person refused to submit to a
13test, or tests, or submitted to testing that disclosed an
14alcohol concentration of 0.08 or more. A sworn report
15indicating refusal or failure of testing under paragraph (a-5)
16of this Section shall include the factual basis of the
17arresting officer's reasonable suspicion that the person was
18under the influence of cannabis. The person's possession of a
19valid registry card under the Compassionate Use of Medical
20Cannabis Pilot Program Act alone is not sufficient basis for
21reasonable suspicion.
22    (e) Upon receipt of the sworn report of a law enforcement
23officer submitted under paragraph (d), the Secretary of State
24shall enter the statutory summary suspension or revocation and
25disqualification for the periods specified in Sections 6-208.1
26and 6-514, respectively, and effective as provided in paragraph

2    If the person is a first offender as defined in Section
311-500 of this Code, and is not convicted of a violation of
4Section 11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a local
5ordinance, then reports received by the Secretary of State
6under this Section shall, except during the actual time the
7Statutory Summary Suspension is in effect, be privileged
8information and for use only by the courts, police officers,
9prosecuting authorities or the Secretary of State, unless the
10person is a CDL holder, is operating a commercial motor vehicle
11or vehicle required to be placarded for hazardous materials, in
12which case the suspension shall not be privileged. Reports
13received by the Secretary of State under this Section shall
14also be made available to the parent or guardian of a person
15under the age of 18 years that holds an instruction permit or a
16graduated driver's license, regardless of whether the
17statutory summary suspension is in effect. A statutory summary
18revocation shall not be privileged information.
19    (f) The law enforcement officer submitting the sworn report
20under paragraph (d) shall serve immediate notice of the
21statutory summary suspension or revocation on the person and
22the suspension or revocation and disqualification shall be
23effective as provided in paragraph (g).
24        (1) In cases where the blood alcohol concentration of
25    0.08 or greater or any amount of a drug, substance, or

4    of Intoxicating Compounds Act, or methamphetamine as
5    listed in the Methamphetamine Control and Community
6    Protection Act is established by a subsequent analysis of
7    blood or urine collected at the time of arrest, the
8    arresting officer or arresting agency shall give notice as

10    mail of the notice in an envelope with postage prepaid and
11    addressed to the person at his address as shown on the
12    Uniform Traffic Ticket and the statutory summary
13    suspension and disqualification shall begin as provided in
14    paragraph (g). The officer shall confiscate any Illinois
15    driver's license or permit on the person at the time of
16    arrest. If the person has a valid driver's license or
17    permit, the officer shall issue the person a receipt, in a
18    form prescribed by the Secretary of State, that will allow
19    that person to drive during the periods provided for in
20    paragraph (g). The officer shall immediately forward the
21    driver's license or permit to the circuit court of venue
22    along with the sworn report provided for in paragraph (d).
23        (2) (Blank). In cases indicating refusal or failure of
24    testing under paragraph (a-5) of this Section the arresting
25    officer or arresting agency shall give notice as provided

2    addressed to the person at his or her address as shown on
3    the Uniform Traffic Ticket and the statutory summary
4    suspension and disqualification shall begin as provided in
5    paragraph (g). This notice shall include the factual basis
6    of the arresting officer's reasonable suspicion that the
7    person was under the influence of cannabis. The person's
8    possession of a valid registry card under the Compassionate
9    Use of Medical Cannabis Pilot Program Act alone is not
10    sufficient basis for reasonable suspicion.
11    (g) The statutory summary suspension or revocation and
12disqualification referred to in this Section shall take effect
13on the 46th day following the date the notice of the statutory
14summary suspension or revocation was given to the person.
15    (h) The following procedure shall apply whenever a person
16is arrested for any offense as defined in Section 11-501 or a
17similar provision of a local ordinance:
18    Upon receipt of the sworn report from the law enforcement
19officer, the Secretary of State shall confirm the statutory
20summary suspension or revocation by mailing a notice of the
21effective date of the suspension or revocation to the person
22and the court of venue. The Secretary of State shall also mail
23notice of the effective date of the disqualification to the
24person. However, should the sworn report be defective by not
25containing sufficient information or be completed in error, the
26confirmation of the statutory summary suspension or revocation

17proceeding arising out of an arrest for an offense as defined
18in Section 11-501 or a similar local ordinance or proceedings
19pursuant to Section 2-118.1, evidence of the concentration of

21compounds, or any combination thereof in a person's blood or
22breath at the time alleged, as determined by analysis of the
23person's blood, urine, breath or other bodily substance, shall
24be admissible. Where such test is made the following provisions
25shall apply:

 

 

09800SB1955ham002- 114 -LRB098 05666 HEP 49187 a

1        1. Chemical analyses of the person's blood, urine,
2    breath or other bodily substance to be considered valid
3    under the provisions of this Section shall have been
4    performed according to standards promulgated by the
5    Department of State Police by a licensed physician,
6    registered nurse, trained phlebotomist, certified
7    paramedic, or other individual possessing a valid permit
8    issued by that Department for this purpose. The Director of
9    State Police is authorized to approve satisfactory
10    techniques or methods, to ascertain the qualifications and
11    competence of individuals to conduct such analyses, to
12    issue permits which shall be subject to termination or
13    revocation at the discretion of that Department and to
14    certify the accuracy of breath testing equipment. The
15    Department of State Police shall prescribe regulations as
16    necessary to implement this Section.
17        2. When a person in this State shall submit to a blood
18    test at the request of a law enforcement officer under the
19    provisions of Section 11-501.1, only a physician
20    authorized to practice medicine, a licensed physician
21    assistant, a licensed advanced practice nurse, a
22    registered nurse, trained phlebotomist, or certified
23    paramedic, or other qualified person approved by the
24    Department of State Police may withdraw blood for the
25    purpose of determining the alcohol, drug, or alcohol and
26    drug content therein. This limitation shall not apply to

 

 

09800SB1955ham002- 115 -LRB098 05666 HEP 49187 a

1    the taking of breath or urine specimens.
2        When a blood test of a person who has been taken to an
3    adjoining state for medical treatment is requested by an
4    Illinois law enforcement officer, the blood may be
5    withdrawn only by a physician authorized to practice
6    medicine in the adjoining state, a licensed physician
7    assistant, a licensed advanced practice nurse, a
8    registered nurse, a trained phlebotomist acting under the
9    direction of the physician, or certified paramedic. The law
10    enforcement officer requesting the test shall take custody
11    of the blood sample, and the blood sample shall be analyzed
12    by a laboratory certified by the Department of State Police
13    for that purpose.
14        3. The person tested may have a physician, or a
15    qualified technician, chemist, registered nurse, or other
16    qualified person of their own choosing administer a
17    chemical test or tests in addition to any administered at
18    the direction of a law enforcement officer. The failure or
19    inability to obtain an additional test by a person shall
20    not preclude the admission of evidence relating to the test
21    or tests taken at the direction of a law enforcement
22    officer.
23        4. Upon the request of the person who shall submit to a
24    chemical test or tests at the request of a law enforcement
25    officer, full information concerning the test or tests
26    shall be made available to the person or such person's

2        5. Alcohol concentration shall mean either grams of
3    alcohol per 100 milliliters of blood or grams of alcohol
4    per 210 liters of breath.
5    (a-5) Law enforcement officials may use standardized field
6sobriety tests approved by the National Highway Traffic Safety
7Administration when conducting investigations of a violation
8of Section 11-501 or similar local ordinance by drivers
9suspected of driving under the influence of cannabis. The
10General Assembly finds that standardized field sobriety tests
11approved by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
12are divided attention tasks that are intended to determine if a
13person is under the influence of cannabis. The purpose of these
14tests is to determine the effect of the use of cannabis on a
15person's capacity to think and act with ordinary care and
16therefore operate a motor vehicle safely. Therefore, the
17results of these standardized field sobriety tests,
18appropriately administered, shall be admissible in the trial of
19any civil or criminal action or proceeding arising out of an
20arrest for a cannabis-related offense as defined in Section
2111-501 or a similar local ordinance or proceedings under
22Section 2-118.1 or 2-118.2. Where a test is made the following
23provisions 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

 

 

09800SB1955ham002- 117 -LRB098 05666 HEP 49187 a

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 a
8    standardized field sobriety test or tests at the request of
9    a law enforcement officer, full information concerning the
10    test or tests shall be made available to the person or the
11    person's attorney.
12        3. At the trial of any civil or criminal action or
13    proceeding arising out of an arrest for an offense as
14    defined in Section 11-501 or a similar local ordinance or
15    proceedings under Section 2-118.1 or 2-118.2 in which the
16    results of these standardized field sobriety tests are
17    admitted, the cardholder may present and the trier of fact
18    may consider evidence that the cardholder lacked the
19    physical capacity to perform the standardized field
20    sobriety tests.
21    (b) 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, the concentration
25of alcohol in the person's blood or breath at the time alleged
26as shown by analysis of the person's blood, urine, breath, or

 

 

09800SB1955ham002- 118 -LRB098 05666 HEP 49187 a

1other bodily substance shall give rise to the following
2presumptions:
3        1. If there was at that time an alcohol concentration
4    of 0.05 or less, it shall be presumed that the person was
5    not under the influence of alcohol.
6        2. If there was at that time an alcohol concentration
7    in excess of 0.05 but less than 0.08, such facts shall not
8    give rise to any presumption that the person was or was not
9    under the influence of alcohol, but such fact may be
10    considered with other competent evidence in determining
11    whether the person was under the influence of alcohol.
12        3. If there was at that time an alcohol concentration
13    of 0.08 or more, it shall be presumed that the person was
14    under the influence of alcohol.
15        4. The foregoing provisions of this Section shall not
16    be construed as limiting the introduction of any other
17    relevant evidence bearing upon the question whether the
18    person was under the influence of alcohol.
19    (c) 1. If a person under arrest refuses to submit to a
20chemical test under the provisions of Section 11-501.1,
21evidence of refusal shall be admissible in any civil or
22criminal action or proceeding arising out of acts alleged to
23have been committed while the person under the influence of
24alcohol, other drug or drugs, or intoxicating compound or
25compounds, or any combination thereof was driving or in actual
26physical control of a motor vehicle.

1    2. Notwithstanding any ability to refuse under this Code to
2submit to these tests or any ability to revoke the implied
3consent to these tests, if a law enforcement officer has
4probable cause to believe that a motor vehicle driven by or in
5actual physical control of a person under the influence of
6alcohol, other drug or drugs, or intoxicating compound or
7compounds, or any combination thereof has caused the death or
8personal injury to another, the law enforcement officer shall
9request, and that person shall submit, upon the request of a
10law enforcement officer, to a chemical test or tests of his or
11her blood, breath or urine for the purpose of determining the
12alcohol content thereof or the presence of any other drug or
13combination of both.
14    This provision does not affect the applicability of or
15imposition of driver's license sanctions under Section
1611-501.1 of this Code.
17    3. For purposes of this Section, a personal injury includes
18any Type A injury as indicated on the traffic accident report
19completed by a law enforcement officer that requires immediate
20professional attention in either a doctor's office or a medical
21facility. A Type A injury includes severe bleeding wounds,
22distorted extremities, and injuries that require the injured
23party to be carried from the scene.
24    (d) If a person refuses standardized field sobriety tests
25under Section 11-501.9 of this Code, evidence of refusal shall

12identification card under the Compassionate Use of Medical
13Cannabis Pilot Program Act who drives or is in actual physical
14control of a motor vehicle upon the public highways of this
15State shall be deemed to have given consent to standardized
16field sobriety tests approved by the National Highway Traffic
17Safety Administration, subject to the provisions of subsection
18(a-5) of Section 11-501.2, if detained by a law enforcement
19officer who has a reasonable suspicion that the person is
20driving or is in actual physical control of a motor vehicle
21while impaired by the use of cannabis, or if the person is
22arrested for a violation of Section 11-401 of this Code. The
23law enforcement officer must have an independent
24cannabis-related factual basis giving reasonable suspicion
25that the person is driving or in actual physical control of a

 

 

09800SB1955ham002- 121 -LRB098 05666 HEP 49187 a

1motor vehicle while impaired by the use of cannabis for
2conducting standardized field sobriety tests. This independent
3cannabis-related factual basis shall be included with the
4results of the standardized field sobriety tests on any reports
5made by the law enforcement officer who requests the test. The
6person's possession of a registry identification card issued
7under the Compassionate Use of Medical Cannabis Pilot Program
8Act alone is not a sufficient basis for reasonable suspicion.
9    For purposes of this Section, an Illinois law enforcement
10officer of this State who is investigating the person for any
11offense defined in Section 11-501 may travel into an adjoining
12state, where the person has been transported for medical care,
13to complete an investigation and to request that the person
14submit to the test or tests set forth in this Section.
15    (b) If the person refuses field sobriety tests or submits
16to field sobriety tests that disclose that the person is
17impaired by the use of cannabis, the law enforcement officer
18shall immediately submit a sworn report to the circuit court of
19venue and the Secretary of State, certifying that the test or
20tests was or were requested under this Section and the person
21refused to submit to field sobriety tests or submitted to field
22sobriety tests that disclosed the person was impaired by the
23use of cannabis. The sworn report must include the law
24enforcement officer's factual basis for reasonable suspicion
25that the person was impaired by the use of cannabis.

3        (1) for refusal or failure to complete the standardized
4    field sobriety tests, a 12-month suspension shall be
5    entered; or
6        (2) for submitting to standardized field sobriety
7    tests that disclosed the driver was impaired by the use of
8    cannabis, a 6 month suspension shall be entered.
