GA96HB349 96 HB 349 VEH CD-DISTRACTED DRIVING Amends the Illinois Vehicle Code. Creates the offense of distracted driving, which a person commits by operating a motor vehicle in violation of a law or ordinance governing the movement of vehicles while also engaging in certain activities. Provides that a law enforcement officer may charge a person with distracted driving if the officer (i) has stopped the person for any violation of a law or ordinance governing the movement of vehicles and (ii) determines that the person was driving while distracted. Specifies that distracted driving may not be recorded on a person's driving record, but requires a person who has committed distracted driving to pay an additional fine equivalent to the amount of the fine for the underlying offense that he or she committed. http://www.ilga.gov/legislation/BillStatus.asp?DocNum=349&GAID=10&DocTypeID=HB&LegId=40542&SessionID=76&GA=96 2009-04-03 00:00:00 House Rule 19(a) / Re-referred to Rules Committee 1 24 HRUL 2009-03-18 00:00:00 House Held on Calendar Order of Second Reading - Short Debate 0 23 2009-03-18 00:00:00 House Recalled to Second Reading - Short Debate 0 22 2009-03-17 00:00:00 House Placed on Calendar Order of 3rd Reading - Short Debate 0 21 2009-03-17 00:00:00 House House Floor Amendment No. 1 Adopted by Voice Vote 0 20 2009-03-16 00:00:00 House House Floor Amendment No. 1 Recommends Be Adopted Rules Committee; 004-000-000 0 19 HRUL 2009-03-11 00:00:00 House Held on Calendar Order of Second Reading - Short Debate 0 18 2009-03-11 00:00:00 House Recalled to Second Reading - Short Debate 0 17 2009-03-11 00:00:00 House House Floor Amendment No. 1 Referred to Rules Committee 0 16 HRUL 2009-03-03 00:00:00 House Added Co-Sponsor Rep.
