Provides that, for each violation of a provision of the Code or a local ordinance recorded by an automated traffic law enforcement system, the county or municipality having jurisdiction shall issue a written notice of the violation to the registered owner of the vehicle who shall be liable for the violation unless otherwise provided. Provides that the notice shall be delivered to the registered vehicle owner within 30 days after the municipality or county confirms the identity of the owner of the vehicle (rather than 30 days after the Secretary of State notifies the municipality or county of the identity of the owner of the vehicle), but in no event later than 90 days after the violation. Provides that there shall be a rebuttable presumption that a school bus was stopped for the purpose of receiving or discharging pupils and the visual signals were in operation on the school bus when recorded images produced by an automated traffic law enforcement system show: (1) an activated stop signal arm; and (2) an electronic indicator indicating activation of school bus visual signals. Provides that the motor vehicle owner is subject to a mandatory civil penalty of $300 (rather than a penalty not exceeding $150) for a first time violation or $1,000 (rather than a penalty not exceeding $500) for a second or subsequent violation. ## Bill overview: provisions PRIA read - Owners get deadlines for bus-camera notices: benefit, low. Illinois cities and counties must mail school-bus camera violation notices within 30 days after confirming the vehicle owner's identity.

Registered owners are liable for camera-recorded school-bus stopping violations, unless a legal exception applies. If the driver did not receive a police-issued Uniform Traffic Citation, fines are $300 for a first violation and $1,000 for each later violation. Late payment can add up to $100.
