HB 3945

Abstract

Amends the Illinois Vehicle Code. Removes language providing that certain multiple offenders shall not be eligible for the issuance of a restricted driving permit. Provides that the Secretary of State may not issue a restricted driving permit, until a period of one year after the date of the most recent revocation, to any person whose current revocation is the result of a second or third (instead of second or subsequent) conviction for driving under the influence or involuntary manslaughter or reckless homicide where the use of alcohol or other drugs is recited as an element of the offense. Provides that the Secretary may not issue a restricted driving permit to any person whose current revocation is the result of a fourth or subsequent conviction for driving under the influence or involuntary manslaughter or reckless homicide where the use of alcohol or other drugs is recited as an element of the offense, or any combination of those offenses, until the expiration of at least 3 years from the date of revocation. Removes language providing that a person may not make application for a license if convicted of committing a fourth or subsequent violation of driving under the influence, fleeing from a motor vehicle accident involving death or personal injuries, involuntary manslaughter or reckless homicide, or a combination of those offenses.
