(625 ILCS 5/18c-3208) (from Ch. 95 1/2, par. 18c-3208)

Sec. 18c-3208. Joint rates and routes.

(1) Establishment by carriers. Two or more common carriers of household goods or passengers may establish through routes and joint rates, provided that the rates, and divisions and practices relating thereto, are just, reasonable, and not discriminatory.

(2) Establishment by the Commission. The Commission may, on its own motion or on petition or complaint, where 2 or more carriers have failed to establish through routes, joint rates, or divisions and practices relating thereto, establish such routes, rates, divisions and practices. The Commission shall take such action only after notice and hearing to consider whether any proposed routes, rates, divisions and practices are just, reasonable and not discriminatory, whether any carrier has a reasonable objection to establishment of such routes, rates, divisions and practices, and whether such objections can be satisfied by imposing reasonable terms and conditions on the application of such routes, rates, divisions and practices. The provisions of this subsection shall have no application to household goods carriers.
