## Summary

Amends the Illinois Vehicle Code. Establishes the Intelligent Speed Assistance Program to supervise the installation and compliance of intelligent speed assistance systems. Sets forth requirements for the Secretary of State upon receipt of notice from a court that a person is required to enroll in the Program. Provides that a person enrolled in the Program shall install a certified intelligent speed assistance system on each motor vehicle owned by or registered to the person and shall not operate any motor vehicle that is not equipped with a functioning, certified intelligent speed assistance system. Provides that if a person fails to comply with the requirements of the Program, the Secretary may: suspend the person's restricted driver's license for a period and, following the period of suspension, permit the person to reenroll in the Program; revoke the person's restricted driver's license and prohibit the person from reenrolling in the Program; or impose a civil penalty. Provides that a person enrolled in the Program shall pay all costs associated with enrollment and participation in the Program, unless the person is found to be indigent. Provides that the Zero Traffic Fatalities Task Force shall certify intelligent speed assistance systems for use in the State and adopt rules and forms for the installation, maintenance, and certification of intelligent speed assistance systems. Sets forth requirements for selling or leasing intelligent speed assistance systems. Requires a manufacturer or distributor of an intelligent speed assistance system to provide support services. Prohibits a person from tampering with, or in any way attempting to circumvent, bypass, or tamper with the operation of, an intelligent speed assistance system that has been installed in a motor vehicle. Requires the Task Force to adopt rules and forms as are necessary to implement the Program. Makes conforming changes in the Code and in the Department of Transportation Law of the Civil Administrative Code of Illinois. Effective January 1, 2027.

## Bill overview: provisions PRIA read

- Free speed devices for indigent drivers: benefit, medium. If the Secretary of State determines that you are indigent, approved providers must provide device installation, normal monthly monitoring, and removal without charge. You must give the provider the Secretary’s written determination. You remain responsible for other charges.
- Limits on speed-device driving data: benefit, medium. The law limits what approved providers can collect about participants, their vehicles, device use, and location. Location data may be kept only to check compliance, not for general tracking. Driving and monitoring data usually must be securely deleted after 30 days, unless the Secretary sets anothe…
- Longer wait to regain a license: cost, high. Beginning January 1, 2028, some drivers whose privileges were revoked after a qualifying speeding conviction must first get a restricted permit with a speed device. Before applying for a license, they must complete at least 365, 730, or 1,095 violation-free days on the permit, depending on how many…
- Monthly fees for speed permits: cost, low. Program participants must pay a monthly permit administration fee of no more than $30. The law sets a cap, not the exact fee. The money goes toward permit administration, subject to legislative approval of spending.
- Providers pay into device fund: cost, low. Service providers must contribute 5% of gross revenue from each active device, including monthly monitoring fees, to the indigent device fund. They must show the contribution as a separate invoice surcharge. The Secretary reviews the rate each year and may change it. Extra fund money goes to the pe…
- Repeat speeders get restricted driving: mixed, high. Beginning January 1, 2028, two qualifying speeding convictions within 12 months can suspend your driving privileges. You may qualify for a restricted permit with an approved speed device, unless your license is otherwise invalid or the offense caused a death. The first suspension ends after six vio…
- Moving states changes speed permit rules: mixed, medium. If you move to Illinois from a participating jurisdiction, Illinois recognizes the required enrollment period. You must report your Program status and verify or install a compliant device within 30 days. Moving to a jurisdiction that does not participate can cancel your permit, though you receive c…
- Work driving exception for permit holders: mixed, medium. Permit holders generally must drive vehicles with an active speed device and cannot drive commercial motor vehicles. With the Secretary of State’s approval, they can drive some employer-owned vehicles without a device for work. They must carry the approved form, and the exception excludes certain v…
