Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

Sec. 11-1514.

Bicycle racing.

(a) Bicycle racing on a highway shall
not be unlawful when a racing event has been approved by State or local
authorities on any highway under their respective jurisdictions.  Approval
of bicycle highway racing events shall be granted only under conditions
which assure reasonable safety for all race participants, spectators and
other highways users, and which prevent unreasonable interference with traffic
flow which would seriously inconvenience other highway users.

(b) By agreement with the approving authority, participants in an approved
bicycle highway racing event may be exempted from compliance with any traffic
laws otherwise applicable thereto, provided that traffic control is adequate
to assure the safety of all highway users.
