district. (a) Outside a business or residence district,
no person shall stop, park or leave

or restricting the stopping, standing or parking of vehicles on any highway
where in its opinion such stopping, standing or parking is dangerous to
those using the highway or where the stopping, standing or parking of
vehicles would unduly interfere with the free movement of traffic thereon.
Any such regulations adopted by the Department regarding the stopping,
standing or parking of vehicles upon any specific street, streets or
highways become effective at the time of the erection of appropriate signs
indicating such regulations. Any such signs may be erected either by the
Department or by a local authority with the approval of the Department. (c) This Section, Section 11‑1303 and Section 11‑1304 shall

in such position. (d) Any second division vehicle used exclusively for the collection of
garbage, refuse, or recyclable material may stop or stand on the road in a
business, rural, or
residential district for the sole purpose of collecting garbage, refuse, or
recyclable material. The vehicle, in addition to having its hazard lights
lighted at all times that it is engaged in stopping or standing, shall also use
its amber oscillating, rotating, or flashing light or lights as authorized
under
paragraph 12 of subsection (b) of Section 12‑215, if so equipped. (Source: P.A. 91‑869, eff. 1‑1‑01.)

on parking, except limitations of one‑half hour or less, on any street or

are owned, leased or owned and leased by a municipality or a municipal
parking utility; and shall be recognized by state and local authorities
as a valid license plate or parking device and shall receive the same
parking privileges as residents of this State; but, such vehicle shall be
subject to the laws which prohibit parking in "no stopping" and "no
standing" zones in front of or near fire hydrants, driveways, public
building entrances and exits, bus stops and loading areas, and is
prohibited from parking where the motor vehicle constitutes a traffic
hazard, whereby such motor vehicle shall be moved at the instruction and
request of a law enforcement officer to a location designated by the
officer. Any motor vehicle bearing registration plates or a special decal
or device specified in this Section or in Section 3‑616 of this Code or
such parking device as specifically authorized in Section 11‑1301.2 as
evidence that the vehicle is operated by or for a person with disabilities or
disabled veteran may park, in addition to any
other lawful place, in any parking place specifically reserved for such
vehicles by the posting of an official sign as provided under Section 11‑301.
Parking privileges granted by this Section are strictly limited
to the person to whom the special registration plates, special decal or
device were issued and to qualified operators acting under his express
direction while the person with disabilities is present.
A person to whom privileges were granted shall, at the request of a
police officer or any other person invested by law with authority to direct,
control, or regulate traffic, present an identification card with a picture as
verification that the
person is the person to whom the special registration plates, special decal or
device was issued. Such parking privileges granted by this Section are also extended to
motor vehicles of not‑for‑profit organizations used for the transportation of
persons with disabilities when such motor vehicles display the decal or device
issued pursuant to Section 11‑1301.2 of this Code. No person shall use any area for the parking of any motor vehicle
pursuant to Section 11‑1303 of this Code or where an official sign
controlling such area expressly prohibits parking at any time or during
certain hours. (Source: P.A. 90‑106, eff. 1‑1‑98.)

rules, the content and form of an application for a person with disabilities
motorist decal or device,
which shall be used by local authorities in the issuance thereof to a
person with temporary disabilities, provided that the decal or device is
valid for no more than 90 days, subject to renewal for like periods based upon
continued disability, and further provided that the decal or device clearly
sets forth the date that the decal or device expires.
The application shall
include the requirement of an Illinois Identification Card number or a State
of Illinois driver's license number.
This decal or device shall be the property of such
person with disabilities and may be used by that person to designate and identify a vehicle not owned or displaying a
registration plate as provided in Sections 3‑609 and 3‑616 of this Act to
designate when the vehicle is being used to transport said person or persons
with disabilities, and thus is entitled to enjoy all the privileges that would
be afforded a person with disabilities licensed vehicle.
Person with disabilities decals or devices issued and displayed pursuant to
this Section shall be recognized and honored by all local authorities
regardless of which local authority issued such decal or device. The decal or device shall be issued only upon a showing by adequate
documentation that the person for whose benefit the decal or device is to be
used has a temporary disability as defined in Section 1‑159.1 of this
Code. (b) The local governing authorities shall be responsible for the provision
of such decal or device, its issuance and designated placement within the

such local governing authority. (c) The Secretary of State may, pursuant to Section 3‑616(c), issue
a person with disabilities parking decal or device to a person with
disabilities as defined by Section 1‑159.1. Any person with disabilities
parking decal or device issued by the Secretary of State shall be registered to
that person with disabilities in the form to be prescribed by the Secretary of
State. The person with disabilities parking decal or device shall not display
that person's address. One additional decal or device may be issued to an
applicant upon his or her written request and with the approval of the
Secretary of
State.
The written request must include a justification of the need for the
additional decal or device. (d) Replacement decals or devices may be issued for lost, stolen, or

When using the parking privileges for persons with disabilities, the parking
decal or device must be displayed properly in the vehicle where it is clearly
visible to law enforcement personnel, either hanging from the rearview mirror
or placed on the dashboard of the vehicle in clear view.
Any motor vehicle properly displaying a disability license plate or a
parking decal or device containing the International symbol of access
issued to persons with disabilities by any local authority, state, district,
territory or foreign country shall be recognized by State and local
authorities as a valid license plate or device and receive the same parking
privileges as residents of this State.

department, remove or cause to be removed to the nearest garage or other
place of safety any vehicle parked within a stall or space reserved for
use by a person with disabilities which does not
display person with disabilities registration
plates or a special decal or device as required under this Section. (c) Any person found guilty of violating the provisions of subsection (a) shall be fined $250 in addition to any costs or charges connected
with the removal or storage of any motor vehicle authorized under this
Section; but municipalities by ordinance may impose a fine up to $350
and shall display signs indicating the fine imposed. If the amount of
the fine is subsequently changed, the municipality shall change the sign to
indicate the current amount of the fine.
It shall not be a defense to a charge under this Section that either the sign posted
pursuant to this
Section or the intended accessible parking place does not comply with the technical requirements of Section 11‑301,
Department
regulations, or local ordinance if a reasonable person would be made aware by
the
sign or notice on or near the parking place that the place is reserved for a
person
with
disabilities. (c‑1) Any person found guilty of violating the provisions of subsection (a‑1) shall be fined $500. The circuit clerk shall distribute $250 of the $500 fine imposed on any person who is found guilty of or pleads guilty to violating this Section, including any person placed on court supervision for violating this Section, to the law enforcement agency that issued the citation or made the arrest. If more than one law enforcement agency is responsible for issuing the citation or making the arrest, the $250 shall be shared equally.
