Introduced Text

Illinois HB5554 allows municipalities with over 1 million residents to use automated systems for traffic obstruction enforcement.

Illinois HB5554 amends the Illinois Vehicle Code to allow municipalities with a population of 1,000,000 or more to use automated traffic law enforcement systems for recording and enforcing violations related to traffic obstruction at intersections. The system must have a posted sign indicating its use, and recorded images must be accessible to the alleged violator. The registered owner is subject to a civil penalty unless they received a Uniform Traffic Citation at the time of the violation. The owner can contest the violation, pay the penalty, or complete a traffic education program.
