34        license  under  Section  6-507  during  the  period  of a
 
                            -10-           LRB9215093DHgcam02
 1        disqualification of commercial driving  privileges  under
 2        Section 6-514.
 3             Any  person  who  falsely  states  any  fact  in the
 4        affidavit required herein  shall  be  guilty  of  perjury
 5        under  Section  6-302  and  upon conviction thereof shall
 6        have  all  driving  privileges  revoked  without  further
 7        rights.
 8             3.  At the conclusion of  a  hearing  under  Section
 9        2-118  of  this Code, the Secretary of State shall either
10        rescind or continue  an  order  of  revocation  or  shall
11        substitute   an  order  of  suspension;  or,  good  cause
12        appearing therefor, rescind, continue, change, or  extend
13        the  order of suspension.  If the Secretary of State does
14        not  rescind  the   order,   the   Secretary   may   upon
15        application,   to   relieve   undue   hardship,  issue  a
16        restricted  driving  permit  granting  the  privilege  of
17        driving  a  motor  vehicle   between   the   petitioner's
18        residence  and petitioner's place of employment or within
19        the scope of his employment related duties, or  to  allow
20        transportation  for the petitioner, or a household member
21        of the petitioner's family, to receive necessary  medical
22        care   and  if  the  professional  evaluation  indicates,
23        provide   transportation   for   alcohol   remedial    or
24        rehabilitative  activity, or for the petitioner to attend
25        classes, as  a  student,  in  an  accredited  educational
26        institution;  if  the  petitioner  is able to demonstrate
27        that no alternative means of transportation is reasonably
28        available and the petitioner will not endanger the public
29        safety or welfare.
30             If a person's license or permit has been revoked  or
31        suspended  due  to  2  or  more  convictions of violating
32        Section 11-501 of this Code or a similar provision  of  a
33        local   ordinance  or  a  similar  out-of-state  offense,
34        arising out of  separate  occurrences,  that  person,  if
 
                            -11-           LRB9215093DHgcam02
 1        issued  a  restricted  driving  permit, may not operate a
 2        vehicle unless it has  been  equipped  with  an  ignition
 3        interlock device as defined in Section 1-129.1.
 4             If  a person's license or permit has been revoked or
 5        suspended 2 or more times within a 10 year period due  to
 6        a  single  conviction of violating Section 11-501 of this
 7        Code or a similar provision of a  local  ordinance  or  a
 8        similar  out-of-state  offense,  and  a statutory summary
 9        suspension under Section 11-501.1, or 2 or more statutory
10        summary suspensions, or combination of 2 offenses, or  of
11        an  offense  and  a statutory summary suspension, arising
12        out of separate occurrences, that  person,  if  issued  a
13        restricted  driving  permit,  may  not  operate a vehicle
14        unless it has been equipped with  an  ignition  interlock
15        device as defined in Section 1-129.1. The person must pay
16        to  the  Secretary  of  State  DUI Administration Fund an
17        amount not to exceed $20 per month.  The Secretary  shall
18        establish  by  rule the amount and the procedures, terms,
19        and conditions relating to these fees. If the  restricted
20        driving  permit  was issued for employment purposes, then
21        this provision does not apply  to  the  operation  of  an
22        occupational  vehicle  owned  or  leased by that person's
23        employer.  In  each  case  the  Secretary  may  issue   a
24        restricted   driving   permit   for   a   period   deemed
25        appropriate,  except that all permits shall expire within
26        one year from the date of  issuance.  The  Secretary  may
27        not,  however,  issue  a restricted driving permit to any
28        person whose current revocation is the result of a second
29        or subsequent  conviction  for  a  violation  of  Section
30        11-501  of  this  Code  or a similar provision of a local
31        ordinance relating to the offense of operating  or  being
32        in  physical  control  of a motor vehicle while under the
33        influence of alcohol, other drug or  drugs,  intoxicating
34        compound   or  compounds,  or  any  similar  out-of-state
 
                            -12-           LRB9215093DHgcam02
 1        offense, or any combination of those offenses, until  the
 2        expiration  of  at  least  one  year from the date of the
 3        revocation. A restricted driving permit issued under this
 4        Section shall be subject to cancellation, revocation, and
 5        suspension by the Secretary of State in like  manner  and
 6        for  like  cause  as a driver's license issued under this
 7        Code may be cancelled, revoked, or suspended; except that
 8        a conviction upon one or more offenses  against  laws  or
 9        ordinances  regulating  the  movement of traffic shall be
10        deemed sufficient cause for the  revocation,  suspension,
11        or  cancellation  of  a  restricted  driving  permit. The
12        Secretary of State may, as a condition to the issuance of
13        a restricted driving permit,  require  the  applicant  to
14        participate   in   a   designated   driver   remedial  or
15        rehabilitative  program.  The  Secretary  of   State   is
16        authorized  to  cancel a restricted driving permit if the
17        permit holder does not successfully complete the program.
18        (c-5)  The Secretary of State may, as a condition of  the
19    reissuance  of  a  driver's license or permit to an applicant
20    whose driver's license or permit has been suspended before he
21    or she reached the age of 18 years pursuant  to  any  of  the
22    provisions   of   this  Section,  require  the  applicant  to
23    participate in a driver  remedial  education  course  and  be
24    retested under Section 6-109 of this Code.
25        (d)  This  Section  is  subject  to the provisions of the
26    Drivers License Compact.
27        (e)  The Secretary of State shall not issue a  restricted
28    driving  permit  to  a person under the age of 16 years whose
29    driving privileges have been suspended or  revoked under  any
30    provisions of this Code.
