 8    Code or a similar  provision  of  a  local  ordinance  or  in
 9    violation  of Section 6-303 of this Code where the revocation
10    or suspension of the person's driver's license was  based  on
11    the  provisions of Section 11-501.1 of this Code or was based
12    on a violation of Section 11-501 of this Code or Section  9-3
13    of  the  Criminal Code of 1961, a law enforcement officer may
14    have the vehicle immediately impounded for a period not  less

12    property is authorized by a law enforcement agency, the owner
13    of the vehicle  shall  be  responsible  for  all  towing  and
14    storage charges.

17    service  in  compliance  with this Section and Sections 4-201
18    and 4-202 of this Code, shall be subject to a possessor  lien
19    for  services pursuant to "An Act concerning liens for labor,

21    furnished for chattels", filed July 24, 1941, as amended, and

23    and  implied  consent shall be deemed satisfied by compliance

29    materials rendered in addition to those  authorized  by  this
30    Act.   Every  such  lien shall be payable by use of any major
31    credit card, in addition to being payable in cash.

23    or great bodily harm to that individual, the vehicle shall be
24    subject  to  seizure and forfeiture under the same procedures
25    provided in this Article for the seizure  and  forfeiture  of
26    vehicles  used in violations of clauses (a), (b), (c), or (d)
27    of this Section.
28        If the spouse of the respondent owner of a vehicle seized
29    for a violation of subdivision (c-1)(1), (c-1)(2),  (c-1)(3),
30    (d)(1)(A),  or  (d)(1)(D)  of  Section 11-501 of the Illinois
31    Vehicle Code or Section 9-3 of this Code makes a showing that
32    the seized vehicle is the only source of  transportation  for
33    employment  or  the  family and the court determines that the
34    financial hardship to the family that would result  from  the
                            -29-           LRB9008478RCmbam01
 1    forfeiture of the vehicle outweighs the benefit of forfeiture
 2    of  the vehicle to the State, the respondent owner's interest
 3    in the vehicle may be  forfeited  to  the  properly  licensed
 4    spouse  of the respondent owner.  If the vehicle is forfeited
 5    to the respondent owner's spouse, the title  to  the  vehicle
 6    shall be transferred to the spouse.  A written declaration of
 7    forfeiture  of  a vehicle under this Section shall constitute
 8    sufficient documentation for the title to be  transferred  to
 9    the  spouse.   The  spousal  protection  provisions  of  this
10    paragraph shall apply only one time per vehicle.  The spousal
11    protection  provisions  of  this paragraph shall not apply to
12    any vehicle of the respondent or respondent's spouse that  is
13    the  subject  of a subsequent forfeiture proceeding by virtue
14    of a subsequent violation of subdivision (c-1)(1),  (c-1)(2),
15    (c-1)(3),  (d)(1)(A)  or  (d)(1)(D)  of Section 11-501 of the
16    Illinois Vehicle Code or Section 9-3 of this  Code.   If  the
17    respondent  owner  of  the  seized vehicle owns more than one
18    vehicle, the spousal protection provision  set  forth  herein
19    may be used for only one vehicle.

22        Section 15.  The Unified Code of Corrections  is  amended
23    by changing Section 5-6-1 as follows:
24        (730 ILCS 5/5-6-1) (from Ch. 38, par. 1005-6-1)
25        Sec.  5-6-1.  Sentences  of  Probation and of Conditional
26    Discharge  and  Disposition  of  Supervision.   The   General
27    Assembly  finds  that  in  order  to  protect the public, the
28    criminal justice  system  must  compel  compliance  with  the
29    conditions  of  probation  by  responding  to violations with
30    swift,  certain  and  fair   punishments   and   intermediate
31    sanctions.  The  Chief  Judge  of  each circuit shall adopt a
32    system of structured, intermediate sanctions  for  violations
                            -30-           LRB9008478RCmbam01
 1    of  the  terms  and  conditions  of  a sentence of probation,
 2    conditional discharge or disposition of supervision.
 3        (a)  Except  where  specifically  prohibited   by   other
 4    provisions of this Code, the court shall impose a sentence of
 5    probation  or  conditional discharge upon an offender unless,
 6    having regard to the nature and circumstance of the  offense,
 7    and  to the history, character and condition of the offender,
 8    the court is of the opinion that:
 9             (1)  his imprisonment or  periodic  imprisonment  is
10        necessary for the protection of the public; or
11             (2)  probation   or   conditional   discharge  would
12        deprecate the seriousness of the offender's  conduct  and
13        would be inconsistent with the ends of justice.
14        The  court  shall  impose as a condition of a sentence of
15    probation, conditional discharge, or  supervision,  that  the
16    probation  agency  may  invoke  any sanction from the list of
17    intermediate sanctions adopted by  the  chief  judge  of  the
18    circuit  court  for violations of the terms and conditions of
19    the  sentence  of  probation,   conditional   discharge,   or
20    supervision,  subject  to  the provisions of Section 5-6-4 of
21    this Act.
22        (b)  The court  may  impose  a  sentence  of  conditional
23    discharge  for an offense if the court is of the opinion that
24    neither  a  sentence  of   imprisonment   nor   of   periodic
25    imprisonment nor of probation supervision is appropriate.
26        (c)  The   court   may,  upon  a  plea  of  guilty  or  a
27    stipulation by the defendant  of  the  facts  supporting  the
28    charge  or  a finding of guilt, defer further proceedings and
29    the  imposition  of  a  sentence,  and  enter  an  order  for
30    supervision of the defendant, if the defendant is not charged
31    with a Class A  misdemeanor,  as  defined  by  the  following
32    provisions  of  the  Criminal  Code of 1961: Sections 12-3.2;
33    12-15; 31-1; 31-6; 31-7; subsections (b) and (c)  of  Section
34    21-1;  paragraph  (1)  through  (5),  (8),  (10), and (11) of
                            -31-           LRB9008478RCmbam01
 1    subsection (a) of Section 24-1; and Section 1 of the Boarding
 2    Aircraft With Weapon Act; or a felony. If  the  defendant  is
 3    not  barred  from  receiving  an  order  for  supervision  as
 4    provided in this subsection, the court may enter an order for
 5    supervision   after  considering  the  circumstances  of  the
 6    offense, and the history,  character  and  condition  of  the
 7    offender, if the court is of the opinion that:
 8             (1)  the  offender  is  not likely to commit further
 9        crimes;
10             (2)  the defendant and  the  public  would  be  best
11        served  if  the  defendant were not to receive a criminal
12        record; and
13             (3)  in the best interests of justice  an  order  of
14        supervision is more appropriate than a sentence otherwise
15        permitted under this Code.
16        (d)  The provisions of paragraph (c) shall not apply to a
17    defendant  charged  with  violating  Section  11-501  of  the
18    Illinois  Vehicle  Code  or  a  similar  provision of a local
19    ordinance when the defendant has previously been:
20             (1)  convicted for a violation of Section 11-501  of
21        the  Illinois  Vehicle  Code  or a similar provision of a
22        local ordinance; or
23             (2)  assigned supervision for a violation of Section
24        11-501  of  the  Illinois  Vehicle  Code  or  a   similar
25        provision of a local ordinance; or
26             (3)  pleaded  guilty  to  or stipulated to the facts
27        supporting a charge or a finding of guilty to a violation
28        of Section 11-503 of  the  Illinois  Vehicle  Code  or  a
29        similar  provision  of a local ordinance, and the plea or
30        stipulation was the result of a plea agreement.
31        The court shall consider the statement of the prosecuting
32    authority with regard to the  standards  set  forth  in  this
33    Section.
34        (e)  The provisions of paragraph (c) shall not apply to a
                            -32-           LRB9008478RCmbam01
 1    defendant   charged  with  violating  Section  16A-3  of  the
 2    Criminal Code of 1961 if said defendant has within the last 5
 3    years been:
 4             (1)  convicted for a violation of Section  16A-3  of
 5        the Criminal Code of 1961; or
 6             (2)  assigned supervision for a violation of Section
 7        16A-3 of the Criminal Code of 1961.
 8        The court shall consider the statement of the prosecuting
 9    authority  with  regard  to  the  standards set forth in this
10    Section.
11        (f)  The provisions of paragraph (c) shall not apply to a
12    defendant charged with  violating  Sections  15-111,  15-112,
13    15-301,  paragraph  (b)  of Section 6-104, Section 11-605, or
14    Section 11-1414 of the Illinois Vehicle  Code  or  a  similar
15    provision of a local ordinance.
16        (g)  The provisions of paragraph (c) shall not apply to a
17    defendant charged with violating Section 3-707, 3-708, 3-710,
18    or  5-401.3  of  the  Illinois  Vehicle  Code  or  a  similar
19    provision  of  a  local ordinance if the defendant has within
20    the last 5 years been:
21             (1)  convicted for a  violation  of  Section  3-707,
22        3-708,  3-710, or 5-401.3 of the Illinois Vehicle Code or
23        a similar provision of a local ordinance; or
24             (2)  assigned supervision for a violation of Section
25        3-707, 3-708, 3-710, or 5-401.3 of the  Illinois  Vehicle
26        Code or a similar provision of a local ordinance.
27        The court shall consider the statement of the prosecuting
28    authority  with  regard  to  the  standards set forth in this
29    Section.
30        (h)  The provisions of paragraph (c) shall not apply to a
31    defendant under the age of 21 years charged with violating  a
32    serious  traffic  offense  as defined in Section 1-187.001 of
33    the Illinois Vehicle Code:
34             (1)  unless  the  defendant,  upon  payment  of  the
                            -33-           LRB9008478RCmbam01
 1        fines, penalties, and costs provided by  law,  agrees  to
 2        attend and successfully complete a traffic safety program
 3        approved   by  the  court  under  standards  set  by  the
 4        Conference of Chief Circuit Judges.  The accused shall be
 5        responsible for payment of  any  traffic  safety  program
 6        fees.   If  the  accused  fails  to file a certificate of
 7        successful completion on or before the  termination  date
 8        of  the  supervision  order,  the  supervision  shall  be
 9        summarily revoked and conviction entered.  The provisions
10        of  Supreme Court Rule 402 relating to pleas of guilty do
11        not apply in cases when a defendant enters a guilty  plea
12        under this provision; or
