of the suspension period.
| 10 | | The provisions of this subparagraph shall not apply to | 11 | | any driver
required to possess a CDL for the purpose of | 12 | | operating a commercial motor vehicle.
| 13 | | Any person who falsely states any fact in the affidavit | 14 | | required
herein shall be guilty of perjury under Section | 15 | | 6-302 and upon conviction

revocation or shall substitute an | 20 | | order of suspension; or, good
cause appearing therefor, | 21 | | rescind, continue, change, or extend the

to relieve undue | 24 | | hardship (as defined by the rules of the Secretary of | 25 | | State), issue
a restricted driving permit granting the | 26 | | privilege of driving a motor
vehicle between the |
| | | SB3452 | - 22 - | LRB097 15085 HEP 60180 b |
|
| 1 | | petitioner's residence and petitioner's place of
| 2 | | employment or within the scope of the petitioner's | 3 | | employment related duties, or to
allow the petitioner to | 4 | | transport himself or herself, or a family member of the
| 5 | | petitioner's household to a medical facility, to receive | 6 | | necessary medical care, to allow the petitioner to | 7 | | transport himself or herself to and from alcohol or drug
| 8 | | remedial or rehabilitative activity recommended by a | 9 | | licensed service provider, or to allow the petitioner to | 10 | | transport himself or herself or a family member of the | 11 | | petitioner's household to classes, as a student, at an | 12 | | accredited educational institution, or to allow the | 13 | | petitioner to transport children, elderly persons, or | 14 | | disabled persons who do not hold driving privileges and are | 15 | | living in the petitioner's household to and from daycare. | 16 | | The
petitioner must demonstrate that no alternative means | 17 | | of
transportation is reasonably available and that the | 18 | | petitioner will not endanger
the public safety or welfare. | 19 | | Those multiple offenders identified in subdivision (b)4 of | 20 | | Section 6-208 of this Code, however, shall not be eligible | 21 | | for the issuance of a restricted driving permit.
| 22 | |
(A) If a person's license or permit is revoked or | 23 | | suspended due to 2
or more convictions of violating | 24 | | Section 11-501 of this Code or a similar
provision of a | 25 | | local ordinance or a similar out-of-state offense, or | 26 | | Section 9-3 of the Criminal Code of 1961, where the use |
| | | SB3452 | - 23 - | LRB097 15085 HEP 60180 b |
|
| 1 | | of alcohol or other drugs is recited as an element of | 2 | | the offense, or a similar out-of-state offense, or a | 3 | | combination of these offenses, arising out
of separate | 4 | | occurrences, that person, if issued a restricted | 5 | | driving permit,
may not operate a vehicle unless it has | 6 | | been equipped with an ignition
interlock device as | 7 | | defined in Section 1-129.1.
| 8 | | (B) If a person's license or permit is revoked or | 9 | | suspended 2 or more
times within a 10 year period due | 10 | | to any combination of: | 11 | | (i) a single conviction of violating Section
| 12 | | 11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a | 13 | | local ordinance or a similar
out-of-state offense | 14 | | or Section 9-3 of the Criminal Code of 1961, where | 15 | | the use of alcohol or other drugs is recited as an | 16 | | element of the offense, or a similar out-of-state | 17 | | offense; or | 18 | | (ii) a statutory summary suspension or | 19 | | revocation under Section
11-501.1; or | 20 | | (iii) a suspension under Section 6-203.1; | 21 | | arising out of
separate occurrences; that person, if | 22 | | issued a restricted driving permit, may
not operate a | 23 | | vehicle unless it has been
equipped with an ignition | 24 | | interlock device as defined in Section 1-129.1. | 25 | | (C)
The person issued a permit conditioned upon the | 26 | | use of an ignition interlock device must pay to the |

|
| 1 | | Secretary of State DUI Administration Fund an amount
| 2 | | not to exceed $30 per month. The Secretary shall | 3 | | establish by rule the amount
and the procedures, terms, | 4 | | and conditions relating to these fees. | 5 | | (D) If the
restricted driving permit is issued for | 6 | | employment purposes, then the prohibition against | 7 | | operating a motor vehicle that is not equipped with an | 8 | | ignition interlock device does not apply to the | 9 | | operation of an occupational vehicle owned or
leased by | 10 | | that person's employer when used solely for employment | 11 | | purposes. | 12 | | (E) In each case the Secretary may issue a
| 13 | | restricted driving permit for a period deemed | 14 | | appropriate, except that all
permits shall expire | 15 | | within one year from the date of issuance. The | 16 | | Secretary
may not, however, issue a restricted driving | 17 | | permit to any person whose current
revocation is the | 18 | | result of a second or subsequent conviction for a | 19 | | violation
of Section 11-501 of this Code or a similar | 20 | | provision of a local ordinance
or any similar | 21 | | out-of-state offense, or Section 9-3 of the Criminal | 22 | | Code of 1961, where the use of alcohol or other drugs | 23 | | is recited as an element of the offense, or any similar | 24 | | out-of-state offense, or any combination
of those | 25 | | offenses, until the expiration of at least one year | 26 | | from the date of
the revocation. A
restricted driving |
| | | SB3452 | - 25 - | LRB097 15085 HEP 60180 b |
|
| 1 | | permit issued under this Section shall be subject to
| 2 | | cancellation, revocation, and suspension by the | 3 | | Secretary of State in like
manner and for like cause as | 4 | | a driver's license issued under this Code may be
| 5 | | cancelled, revoked, or suspended; except that a | 6 | | conviction upon one or more
offenses against laws or | 7 | | ordinances regulating the movement of traffic
shall be | 8 | | deemed sufficient cause for the revocation, | 9 | | suspension, or
cancellation of a restricted driving | 10 | | permit. The Secretary of State may, as
a condition to | 11 | | the issuance of a restricted driving permit, require | 12 | | the
applicant to participate in a designated driver | 13 | | remedial or rehabilitative
program. The Secretary of | 14 | | State is authorized to cancel a restricted
driving | 15 | | permit if the permit holder does not successfully | 16 | | complete the program.
| 17 | | (c-3) In the case of a suspension under paragraph 43 of | 18 | | subsection (a), reports received by the Secretary of State | 19 | | under this Section shall, except during the actual time the | 20 | | suspension is in effect, be privileged information and for use | 21 | | only by the courts, police officers, prosecuting authorities, | 22 | | the driver licensing administrator of any other state, the | 23 | | Secretary of State, or the parent or legal guardian of a driver | 24 | | under the age of 18. However, beginning January 1, 2008, if the | 25 | | person is a CDL holder, the suspension shall also be made | 26 | | available to the driver licensing administrator of any other |
| | | SB3452 | - 26 - | LRB097 15085 HEP 60180 b |
|
| 1 | | state, the U.S. Department of Transportation, and the affected | 2 | | driver or motor
carrier or prospective motor carrier upon | 3 | | request.
| 4 | | (c-4) In the case of a suspension under paragraph 43 of | 5 | | subsection (a), the Secretary of State shall notify the person | 6 | | by mail that his or her driving privileges and driver's license | 7 | | will be suspended one month after the date of the mailing of | 8 | | the notice.
| 9 | | (c-5) The Secretary of State may, as a condition of the | 10 | | reissuance of a
driver's license or permit to an applicant | 11 | | whose driver's license or permit has
been suspended before he | 12 | | or she reached the age of 21 years pursuant to any of
the | 13 | | provisions of this Section, require the applicant to | 14 | | participate in a
driver remedial education course and be | 15 | | retested under Section 6-109 of this
Code.
| 16 | | (d) This Section is subject to the provisions of the | 17 | | Drivers License
Compact.
| 18 | | (e) The Secretary of State shall not issue a restricted | 19 | | driving permit to
a person under the age of 16 years whose | 20 | | driving privileges have been suspended
or revoked under any | 21 | | provisions of this Code.
| 22 | | (f) In accordance with 49 C.F.R. 384, the Secretary of | 23 | | State may not issue a restricted driving permit for the | 24 | | operation of a commercial motor vehicle to a person holding a | 25 | | CDL whose driving privileges have been suspended, revoked, | 26 | | cancelled, or disqualified under any provisions of this Code. |
