Suspended Driver's License Financial

~~DISCUSSION~~

Scenario

Traffic stop resulting in driver with suspended drivers license for failure to pay fines.

  • Driver has suspended driver's license for 625 ILCS 5/6-306.5, which is failure to pay fines
  • Driver's abstract shows no other negative entries except that listed above
  • Driver has insurance
  • Driver is an Illinois resident
  • Probable cause for stop was no tail lights
  • Two movers to be written:
    • Required Lighting (MCC 9-76-050(c) or 625 ILCS 5/12-201(b))
    • Driving while driver's license, permit, or privilege to operate a motor vehicle is suspended or revoked (625 ILCS 5/6-303)

The Question

  • Do we take bond (TVB, since driver has no DL)?
  • Is the vehicle impounded?

Preliminary Answer

  • Do we take bond (TVB, since driver has no DL)?
    • No, do not TVB??
      • Since suspension is for 625 ILCS 5/6-306.5 and according to 625 ILCS 5/6-303(a), this financial license suspension is a PETTY offense.
        Since this is a petty offense, No Illinois resident charged with a petty traffic offense will be required to post bond (Special Order S06-13, III-A).

  • Is the vehicle impounded?
    • According to Special Order S07-03-05, we would impound the vehicle.
