AI Summary

  • Prohibits municipalities with a population exceeding 1,000,000 from operating automated traffic law enforcement systems (red light cameras).

  • Allows the prohibition to be reconsidered if the municipality submits a report to the General Assembly detailing procedures to address documented issues including equipment malfunctions, non-compliant yellow light durations, insufficient oversight, failure to notify drivers of equipment changes, and improper refund processes.

  • Establishes rules for automated red light enforcement systems in eligible counties (Cook, DuPage, Kane, Lake, Madison, McHenry, St. Clair, and Will), including civil penalties not exceeding $100, traffic education program requirements, and mandatory online access to violation images.

  • Prohibits compensation for automated enforcement systems from being based on citation volume or revenue generated, and exempts vehicle lessors from liability if they provide lessee information within required timeframes.
