fine, and of any applicable penalty for late | 24 |
| payment, shall operate as a
final disposition of the | 25 |

| collected in accordance with applicable law. Payment in full
of | 5 |
| any fine or penalty resulting from a standing, parking, or
| 6 |
| compliance , or automated traffic law violation shall
| 7 |
| constitute a final disposition of that violation.
| 8 |
| (f) After the expiration of the period within which | 9 |
| judicial review may
be sought for a final determination of | 10 |

| 11 |
| violation, the municipality
may commence a proceeding in the | 12 |
| Circuit Court for purposes of obtaining a
judgment on the final | 13 |
| determination of violation. Nothing in this
Section shall | 14 |
| prevent a municipality from consolidating multiple final
| 15 |
| determinations of parking, standing, or compliance , or | 16 |
| automated traffic law violations
violation against a
person in | 17 |
| a proceeding.
Upon commencement of the action, the municipality | 18 |
| shall file a certified
copy or record of the final | 19 |
| determination of parking, standing, or compliance , or | 20 |
| automated traffic law
violation, which shall be
accompanied by | 21 |
| a certification that recites facts sufficient to show that
the | 22 |
| final determination of violation was
issued in accordance with | 23 |
| this Section and the applicable municipal
ordinance. Service of | 24 |
| the summons and a copy of the petition may be by
any method | 25 |
| provided by Section 2-203 of the Code of Civil Procedure or by

| total amount of
fines and penalties for final determinations of | 28 |

compliance , or automated traffic law | 29 |
| violations does not
exceed $2500. If the court is satisfied | 30 |
| that the final determination of
parking, standing, or | 31 |
| compliance , or automated traffic law violation was entered in | 32 |
| accordance with
the requirements of
this Section and the | 33 |
| applicable municipal ordinance, and that the registered
owner | 34 |
| or the lessee, as the case may be, had an opportunity for an

| Sec. 11-208.6. Automated traffic law enforcement system.
| 10 |
| (a) As used in this Section, "automated traffic law | 11 |
| enforcement
system" means a device with one or more motor | 12 |
| vehicle sensors working
in conjunction with a red light signal | 13 |
| to produce recorded images of
motor vehicles entering an | 14 |
| intersection against a red signal
indication in violation of | 15 |
| Section 11-306 of this Code or a similar provision
of a local | 16 |
| ordinance.
| 17 |
| An
automated traffic law enforcement system is a system, in | 18 |
| a municipality or
county operated by a
governmental agency, | 19 |
| that
produces a recorded image of a motor vehicle's
violation | 20 |
| of a provision of this Code or a local ordinance
and is | 21 |
| designed to obtain a clear recorded image of the
vehicle and | 22 |
| the vehicle's license plate. The recorded image must also
| 23 |
| display the time, date, and location of the violation.
| 24 |
| (b) As used in this Section, "recorded images" means | 25 |
| images
recorded by an automated traffic law enforcement system | 26 |
| on:
| 27 |
| (1) 2 or more photographs;
| 28 |
| (2) 2 or more microphotographs;
| 29 |
| (3) 2 or more electronic images; or
| 30 |
| (4) a video recording showing the motor vehicle and, | 31 |
| on at
least one image or portion of the recording, clearly | 32 |
| identifying the
registration plate number of the motor | 33 |
| vehicle.
| 34 |
| (c) A county or municipality, including a home rule county | 35 |
| or municipality, may not use an automated traffic law |

| enforcement system to provide recorded images of a motor | 2 |
| vehicle for the purpose of recording its speed. The regulation | 3 |
| of the use of automated traffic law enforcement systems to | 4 |
| record vehicle speeds is an exclusive power and function of the | 5 |
| State. This subsection (c) is a denial and limitation of home | 6 |
| rule powers and functions under subsection (h) of Section 6 of | 7 |
| Article VII of the Illinois Constitution.
| 8 |
| (d) For each violation of a provision of this Code or a | 9 |
| local ordinance
recorded by an automatic
traffic law | 10 |
| enforcement system, the county or municipality having
| 11 |
| jurisdiction shall issue a written notice of the
violation to | 12 |
| the registered owner of the vehicle as the alleged
violator. | 13 |
| The notice shall be delivered to the registered
owner of the | 14 |
| vehicle, by mail, within 30 days after the Secretary of State | 15 |
| notifies the municipality or county of the identity of the | 16 |
| owner of the vehicle, but in no event later than 90 days after | 17 |
| the violation.
| 18 |
| The notice shall include:
| 19 |
| (1) the name and address of the registered owner of | 20 |
| the
vehicle;
| 21 |
| (2) the registration number of the motor vehicle
| 22 |
| involved in the violation;
| 23 |
| (3) the violation charged;
| 24 |
| (4) the location where the violation occurred;
| 25 |
| (5) the date and time of the violation;
| 26 |
| (6) a copy of the recorded images;
| 27 |
| (7) the amount of the civil penalty imposed and the | 28 |
| date
by which the civil penalty should be paid;
| 29 |
| (8) a statement that recorded images are evidence of a
| 30 |
| violation of a red light signal;
| 31 |
| (9) a warning that failure to pay the civil penalty or | 32 |
| to
contest liability in a timely manner is an admission of
| 33 |
| liability and may result in a suspension of the driving
| 34 |
| privileges of the registered owner of the vehicle; and
| 35 |
| (10) a statement that the person may elect to proceed | 36 |

| (A) paying the fine; or
| 2 |
| (B) challenging the charge in court, by mail, or | 3 |
| by administrative hearing.
| 4 |
| (e) If a person
charged with a traffic violation, as a | 5 |
| result of an automated traffic law
enforcement system, does not | 6 |
| pay or successfully contest the civil
penalty resulting from | 7 |
| that violation, the Secretary of State shall suspend the
| 8 |
| driving privileges of the
registered owner of the vehicle under | 9 |
| Section 6-306.5 of this Code for failing
to pay any fine or | 10 |
| penalty
due and owing as a result of 5 violations of the | 11 |
| automated traffic law
enforcement system.
| 12 |
| (f) Based on inspection of recorded images produced by an
| 13 |
| automated traffic law enforcement system, a notice alleging | 14 |
| that the violation occurred shall be evidence of the facts | 15 |
| contained
in the notice and admissible in any proceeding | 16 |
| alleging a
violation under this Section.
| 17 |
| (g) Recorded images made by an automatic traffic law
| 18 |
| enforcement system are confidential and shall be made
available | 19 |
| only to the alleged violator and governmental and
law | 20 |
| enforcement agencies for purposes of adjudicating a
violation | 21 |
| of this Section, for statistical purposes, or for other | 22 |
| governmental purposes. Any recorded image evidencing a
| 23 |
| violation of this Section, however, may be admissible in
any | 24 |
| proceeding resulting from the issuance of the citation.
| 25 |
| (h) The court or hearing officer may consider in defense | 26 |
| of a violation:
| 27 |
| (1) that the motor vehicle or registration plates of | 28 |
| the motor
vehicle were stolen before the violation occurred | 29 |
| and not
under the control of or in the possession of the | 30 |
| owner at
the time of the violation;
| 31 |
| (2) that the driver of the vehicle passed through the
| 32 |
| intersection when the light was red either (i) in order to
| 33 |
| yield the right-of-way to an emergency vehicle or (ii) as
| 34 |
| part of a funeral procession; and
| 35 |
| (3) any other evidence or issues provided by | 36 |
| municipal or county ordinance.

| (i) To demonstrate that the motor vehicle or the | 2 |
| registration
plates were stolen before the violation occurred | 3 |
| and were not under the
control or possession of the owner at | 4 |
| the time of the violation, the
owner must submit proof that a | 5 |
| report concerning the stolen
motor vehicle or registration | 6 |
| plates was filed with a law enforcement agency in a timely | 7 |
| manner.
| 8 |
| (j) Unless the driver of the motor vehicle received a | 9 |
| Uniform
Traffic Citation from a police officer at the time of | 10 |
| the violation,
the motor vehicle owner is subject to a civil | 11 |
| penalty not exceeding
$100, plus an additional penalty of not | 12 |
| more than $100 for failure to pay the original penalty in a | 13 |
| timely manner, if the motor vehicle is recorded by an automated | 14 |
| traffic law
enforcement system. A violation for which a civil | 15 |
| penalty is imposed
under this Section is not a violation of a | 16 |
| traffic regulation governing
the movement of vehicles and may | 17 |
| not be recorded on the driving record
of the owner of the | 18 |
| vehicle.
| 19 |
| (k) An intersection equipped with an automated traffic | 20 |
| law
enforcement system must be posted with a sign visible to | 21 |
| approaching traffic
indicating that the intersection is being | 22 |
| monitored by an automated
traffic law enforcement system.
| 23 |
| (l) The compensation paid for an automated traffic law | 24 |
| enforcement system
must be based on the value of the equipment | 25 |
| or the services provided and may
not be based on the number of | 26 |
| traffic citations issued or the revenue generated
by the | 27 |
| system.

| 5 |
| 1. Vehicular traffic facing a circular green signal | 6 |
| may
proceed
straight through or turn right or left unless a | 7 |

combination with another indication, may | 14 |
| cautiously enter the intersection
only to make the movement | 15 |

| 17 |
| vehicular traffic shall yield the right of way to | 18 |
| pedestrians lawfully
within an adjacent crosswalk and to | 19 |
| other traffic lawfully using the
intersection.
| 20 |
| 3. Unless otherwise directed by a pedestrian-control | 21 |
| signal, as provided
in Section 11-307, pedestrians facing | 22 |
| any green signal, except when the
sole green signal is a | 23 |
| turn arrow, may proceed across the roadway within
any | 24 |
| marked or unmarked crosswalk.
| 25 |
| (b) Steady yellow indication.
| 26 |
| 1. Vehicular traffic facing a steady circular yellow | 27 |
| or yellow arrow
signal is thereby warned that the related | 28 |
| green movement is being
terminated or that a red indication | 29 |
| will be exhibited immediately thereafter.
