Act, as amended; or
| 25 | | 6. has refused or neglected to submit an alcohol, drug, |

|
| 1 | | and
intoxicating compound evaluation or to

| 4 | | 7. has been convicted of violating the Cannabis Control | 5 | | Act,
the
Illinois Controlled Substances Act, the | 6 | | Methamphetamine Control and Community Protection Act, or | 7 | | the Use of Intoxicating Compounds
Act while that individual | 8 | | was in actual physical
control of a motor vehicle. For | 9 | | purposes of this Section, any person placed on
probation | 10 | | under Section 10 of the Cannabis Control Act, Section 410 | 11 | | of the
Illinois Controlled Substances Act, or Section 70 of | 12 | | the Methamphetamine Control and Community Protection Act | 13 | | shall not be considered convicted. Any
person found guilty | 14 | | of this offense, while in actual physical control of a
| 15 | | motor vehicle, shall have an entry made in the court record | 16 | | by the
judge that this offense did occur while the person | 17 | | was in actual
physical control of a motor vehicle and order | 18 | | the clerk of the court to report
the violation to the | 19 | | Secretary of State as such. After the cancellation, the
| 20 | | Secretary of State shall not issue a new license or permit | 21 | | for a period of one
year after the date of cancellation. | 22 | | However, upon application, the Secretary
of State may, if | 23 | | satisfied that the person applying will not endanger the
| 24 | | public safety, or welfare, issue a restricted driving | 25 | | permit granting the
privilege of driving a motor vehicle | 26 | | between the petitioner's residence and
petitioner's place |
| | | SB0675 | - 4 - | LRB100 06005 AXK 16035 b |

| 3 | | the petitioner or a household member of the petitioner's | 4 | | family for the receipt of

rehabilitative activity | 7 | | recommended by a licensed service provider, or for the | 8 | | petitioner to attend classes, as a student,
in an | 9 | | accredited educational institution. The petitioner must
| 10 | | demonstrate that no alternative means of transportation is | 11 | | reasonably
available; provided that the Secretary's | 12 | | discretion shall be limited to
cases where undue hardship, | 13 | | as defined by the rules of the Secretary of State, would | 14 | | result from a failure to issue such
restricted driving | 15 | | permit. In each case the Secretary of State may issue
such | 16 | | restricted driving permit for such period as he deems | 17 | | appropriate,
except that such permit shall expire within | 18 | | one year from the date of
issuance. A restricted driving | 19 | | permit issued hereunder shall be subject to
cancellation, | 20 | | revocation and suspension by the Secretary of State in like
| 21 | | manner and for like cause as a driver's license issued | 22 | | hereunder may be
cancelled, revoked or suspended; except | 23 | | that a conviction upon one or more
offenses against laws or | 24 | | ordinances regulating the movement of traffic
shall be | 25 | | deemed sufficient cause for the revocation, suspension or
| 26 | | cancellation of a restricted driving permit. The Secretary |
| | | SB0675 | - 5 - | LRB100 06005 AXK 16035 b |
|
| 1 | | of State may,
