AN ACT concerning transportation.
| ||||
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
| ||||
represented in the General Assembly:
| ||||
Section 5. The Illinois Vehicle Code is amended by changing | ||||
Sections 11-501.01 and 16-104a as follows: | ||||
(625 ILCS 5/11-501.01)
| ||||
Sec. 11-501.01. Additional administrative sanctions. | ||||
(a) After a finding of guilt and prior to any final | ||||
sentencing or an order for supervision, for an offense based | ||||
upon an arrest for a violation of Section 11-501 or a similar | ||||
provision of a local ordinance, individuals shall be required | ||||
to undergo a professional evaluation to determine if an | ||||
alcohol, drug, or intoxicating compound abuse problem exists | ||||
and the extent of the problem, and undergo the imposition of | ||||
treatment as appropriate. Programs conducting these | ||||
evaluations shall be licensed by the Department of Human | ||||
Services. The cost of any professional evaluation shall be paid | ||||
for by the individual required to undergo the professional | ||||
evaluation. | ||||
(b) Any person who is found guilty of or pleads guilty to | ||||
violating Section 11-501, including any person receiving a | ||||
disposition of court supervision for violating that Section, | ||||
may be required by the Court to attend a victim impact panel |
offered by, or under contract with, a county State's Attorney's | ||
office, a probation and court services department, Mothers | ||
Against Drunk Driving, or the Alliance Against Intoxicated | ||
Motorists. All costs generated by the victim impact panel shall | ||
be paid from fees collected from the offender or as may be | ||
determined by the court. | ||
(c) Every person found guilty of violating Section 11-501, | ||
whose operation of a motor vehicle while in violation of that | ||
Section proximately caused any incident resulting in an | ||
appropriate emergency response, shall be liable for the expense | ||
of an emergency response as provided in subsection (i) of this | ||
Section. | ||
(d) The Secretary of State shall revoke the driving | ||
privileges of any person convicted under Section 11-501 or a | ||
similar provision of a local ordinance. | ||
(e) The Secretary of State shall require the use of | ||
ignition interlock devices on all vehicles owned by a person | ||
who has been convicted of a second or subsequent offense of | ||
Section 11-501 or a similar provision of a local ordinance. The | ||
person must pay to the Secretary of State DUI Administration | ||
Fund an amount not to exceed $30 for each month that he or she | ||
uses the device. The Secretary shall establish by rule and | ||
regulation the procedures for certification and use of the | ||
interlock system, the amount of the fee, and the procedures, | ||
terms, and conditions relating to these fees. | ||
(f) In addition to any other penalties and liabilities, a |
person who is found guilty of or pleads guilty to violating | ||
Section 11-501, including any person placed on court | ||
supervision for violating Section 11-501, shall be assessed | ||
$750, payable to the circuit clerk, who shall distribute the | ||
money as follows: $350 to the law enforcement agency that made | ||
the arrest, and $400 shall be forwarded to the State Treasurer | ||
for deposit into the General Revenue Fund. If the person has | ||
been previously convicted of violating Section 11-501 or a | ||
similar provision of a local ordinance, the fine shall be | ||
$1,000, and the circuit clerk shall distribute
$200 to the law | ||
enforcement agency that
made the arrest and $800 to the State
| ||
Treasurer for deposit into the General Revenue Fund. In the | ||
event that more than one agency is responsible for the arrest, | ||
the amount payable to law enforcement agencies shall be shared | ||
equally. Any moneys received by a law enforcement agency under | ||
this subsection (f) shall be used to purchase law enforcement | ||
equipment that will assist in the prevention of alcohol related | ||
criminal violence throughout the State. This shall include, but | ||
is not limited to, in-car video cameras, radar and laser speed | ||
detection devices, and alcohol breath testers. Any moneys | ||
received by the Department of State Police under this | ||
subsection (f) shall be deposited into the State Police DUI | ||
Fund and shall be used to purchase law enforcement equipment | ||
that will assist in the prevention of alcohol related criminal | ||
violence throughout the State. | ||
(g) The Secretary of State Police DUI Fund is created as a |
special fund in the State treasury. All moneys received by the | ||
Secretary of State Police under subsection (f) of this Section | ||
shall be deposited into the Secretary of State Police DUI Fund | ||
and, subject to appropriation, shall be used to purchase law | ||
enforcement equipment to assist in the prevention of alcohol | ||
related criminal violence throughout the State. | ||
(h) Whenever an individual is sentenced for an offense | ||
based upon an arrest for a violation of Section 11-501 or a | ||
similar provision of a local ordinance, and the professional | ||
evaluation recommends remedial or rehabilitative treatment or | ||
education, neither the treatment nor the education shall be the | ||
sole disposition and either or both may be imposed only in | ||
conjunction with another disposition. The court shall monitor | ||
compliance with any remedial education or treatment | ||
recommendations contained in the professional evaluation. | ||
Programs conducting alcohol or other drug evaluation or | ||
remedial education must be licensed by the Department of Human | ||
Services. If the individual is not a resident of Illinois, | ||
however, the court may accept an alcohol or other drug | ||
evaluation or remedial education program in the individual's | ||
state of residence. Programs providing treatment must be | ||
licensed under existing applicable alcoholism and drug | ||
treatment licensure standards. | ||
(i) In addition to any other fine or penalty required by | ||
law, an individual convicted of a violation of Section 11-501, | ||
Section 5-7 of the Snowmobile Registration and Safety Act, |
Section 5-16 of the Boat Registration and Safety Act, or a | ||
similar provision, whose operation of a motor vehicle, | ||
snowmobile, or watercraft while in violation of Section 11-501, | ||
Section 5-7 of the Snowmobile Registration and Safety Act, | ||
Section 5-16 of the Boat Registration and Safety Act, or a | ||
similar provision proximately caused an incident resulting in | ||
an appropriate emergency response, shall be required to make | ||
restitution to a public agency for the costs of that emergency | ||
response. The restitution may not exceed $1,000 per public | ||
agency for each emergency response. As used in this subsection | ||
(i), "emergency response" means any incident requiring a | ||
response by a police officer, a firefighter carried on the | ||
rolls of a regularly constituted fire department, or an | ||
ambulance. With respect to funds designated for the Department | ||
of State Police, the moneys shall be remitted by the circuit | ||
court clerk to the State Police within one month after receipt | ||
for deposit into the State Police DUI Fund. With respect to | ||
funds designated for the Department of Natural Resources, the | ||
Department of Natural Resources shall deposit the moneys into | ||
the Conservation Police Operations Assistance Fund.

| ||
Sec. 16-104a. Additional penalty for certain violations. | ||
(a) There is added
to every fine imposed upon conviction of |
an offense reportable to the
Secretary of State under the | ||
provisions of subdivision (a)(2) of
Section 6-204 of this Act | ||
an additional penalty of $4 for each $40, or fraction
thereof, | ||
of fine imposed. Each such additional penalty received shall be
| ||
remitted within one month to the State Treasurer to be | ||
deposited into the
Drivers Education Fund, unless the | ||
additional penalty is subject to
disbursement by the circuit | ||
clerk under Section 27.5 of the Clerks of
Courts Act. Such | ||
additional amounts shall be assessed by the
court and shall be | ||
collected by the Clerk of the Circuit Court in addition
to the | ||
fine and costs in the case. Such additional penalty shall not | ||
be
considered a part of the fine for purposes of any reduction | ||
made in the
fine for time served either before or after | ||
sentencing. Not later than
March 1 of each year the Clerk of | ||
the Circuit Court shall submit to the
State Comptroller a | ||
report of the amount of funds remitted by him to the
State | ||
Treasurer under this Section during the preceding calendar | ||
year.
Except as otherwise provided by Supreme Court Rules, if a | ||
court in
sentencing an offender levies a gross amount for fine, | ||
costs, fees and
penalties, the amount of the additional penalty | ||
provided for herein shall
be computed on the amount remaining | ||
after deducting from the gross amount
levied all fees of the | ||
Circuit Clerk, the State's Attorney and the Sheriff.
After | ||
deducting from the gross amount levied the fees and additional
| ||
penalty provided for herein, less any other additional | ||
penalties provided
by law, the clerk shall remit the net |
balance remaining to the entity
authorized by law to receive | ||
the fine imposed in the case. For purposes of
this Section | ||
"fees of the Circuit Clerk" shall include, if applicable, the
| ||
fee provided for under Section 27.3a of the Clerks of Courts | ||
Act and the
fee, if applicable, payable to the county in which | ||
the violation occurred
pursuant to Section 5-1101 of the | ||
Counties Code.
| ||
When bail is forfeited for failure to appear in connection
| ||
with an offense reportable to the Secretary of State under | ||
subdivision (a)(2) of Section 6-204 of this Act, and no fine is | ||
imposed ex parte, $4
of
every $40 cash deposit, or fraction | ||
thereof, given to secure appearance
shall be remitted within | ||
one month to the State Treasurer
to be deposited into the | ||
Drivers Education Fund, unless the bail is
subject to | ||
disbursement by the circuit clerk under Section 27.5 of the
| ||
Clerks of Courts Act.
| ||
(b) In addition to any other fine or penalty required by | ||
law for a person convicted of a violation of Section 11-503 or | ||
11-601.5 of this Code or a similar provision of a local | ||
ordinance, the court may, in its discretion, require the person | ||
to pay an additional criminal penalty that shall be distributed | ||
in its entirety to a public agency that provided an emergency | ||
response related to the person's violation. The criminal | ||
penalty may not exceed $100 per public agency for each | ||
emergency response provided for a first violation of Section | ||
11-503 or
11-601.5 of this Code or a similar provision of a |
local
ordinance. The criminal penalty may not exceed $500 per | ||
public agency for each emergency response provided for a second | ||
or subsequent violation of Section 11-503 or
11-601.5 of this | ||
Code or a similar provision of a local
ordinance. As used in | ||
this subsection, "emergency response" means any incident | ||
requiring a response by a police officer, an ambulance, a | ||
firefighter carried on the rolls of a regularly constituted | ||
fire department or fire protection district, a firefighter of a | ||
volunteer fire department, or a member if a recognized | ||
not-for-profit rescue or emergency medical service provider. | ||
With respect to funds designated for the Department of State | ||
Police, the moneys shall be remitted by the circuit court clerk | ||
to the State Police within one month after receipt for deposit | ||
into the State Police Operations Assistance Fund. With respect | ||
to funds designated for the Department of Natural Resources, | ||
the Department of Natural Resources shall deposit the moneys | ||
into the Conservation Police Operations Assistance Fund. | ||
