HB2548 EnrolledLRB102 15149 RAM 20504 b

    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 Section 3-804.01 as follows:
 
    (625 ILCS 5/3-804.01)
    Sec. 3-804.01. Expanded-use antique vehicles.
    (a) The owner of a motor vehicle that is more than 25 years
of age or a bona fide replica thereof may register the vehicle
as an expanded-use antique vehicle. In addition to the
appropriate registration and renewal fees, the fee for
expanded-use antique vehicle registration and renewal, except
as provided under subsection (d), shall be $45 per year. The
application for registration must be accompanied by an
affirmation of the owner that:
        (1) from January 1 through the last day of February
    March 31 and from December November 1 through December 31,
    the vehicle will be driven on the highways only for the
    purpose of going to and returning from an antique auto
    show or an exhibition, or for servicing or demonstration;
    and
        (2) the mechanical condition, physical condition,
    brakes, lights, glass, and appearance of such vehicle is
    the same or as safe as originally equipped.
    From March 1 April 1 through November 30 October 31, a
vehicle registered as an expanded-use antique vehicle may be
driven on the highways without being subject to the
restrictions set forth in subdivision (1). The Secretary may
prescribe, in the Secretary's discretion, that expanded-use
antique vehicle plates be issued for a definite or an
indefinite term, such term to correspond to the term of
registration plates issued generally, as provided in Section
3-414.1. Any person requesting expanded-use antique vehicle
plates under this Section may also apply to have vanity or
personalized plates as provided under Section 3-405.1.
    (b) Any person who is the registered owner of an
expanded-use antique vehicle may display a historical license
plate from or representing the model year of the vehicle,
furnished by such person, in lieu of the current and valid
Illinois expanded-use antique vehicle plates issued thereto,
provided that the valid and current Illinois expanded-use
antique vehicle plates and registration card issued to the
expanded-use antique vehicle are simultaneously carried within
the vehicle and are available for inspection.
    (c) The Secretary may credit a pro-rated portion of a fee
previously paid for an antique vehicle registration under
Section 3-804 to an owner who applies to have that vehicle
registered as an expanded-use antique vehicle instead of an
antique vehicle.
    (d) The Secretary may make a version of the registration
plate authorized under this Section in a form appropriate for
motorcycles. In addition to the required registration and
renewal fees, the fee for motorcycle expanded-use antique
vehicle registration and renewal shall be $23 per year.
