Bill > HB1747

This bill amends the Illinois Vehicle Code to require every applicant for motor vehicle registration to present a valid driver's license when submitting their registration application. The bill modifies Section 3-405 of the Vehicle Code, which outlines the requirements for registration application. While the existing law already required detailed information from vehicle owners such as name, address, and vehicle description, this amendment adds the explicit requirement of presenting a valid driver's license during the registration process. The bill also maintains existing provisions that allow certain law enforcement and judicial professionals to use their work address instead of their home address when registering a vehicle, and includes provisions for their spouses and children to do the same. The goal appears to be ensuring that vehicle registrants have a valid driver's license, which may help improve road safety and verify the legal driving status of vehicle owners.
