Over the last decade, traffic fatalities in our state have declined significantly. This is due in large part to innovative efforts to combat drunk and distracted driving, as well as stronger guidelines for new teen drivers. The driving public’s increased awareness and avoidance of hazardous driving behaviors are critical for Illinois to see a further decline in traffic fatalities. Beginning May 3, 2023, the federal government will require your driver’s license or ID card (DL/ID) to be REAL ID compliant for use as identification to board domestic flights. Not every person needs a REAL ID card, which is why we offer you a choice. You decide if you need a REAL ID or standard DL/ID. More information is available on the following pages. The application process for a REAL ID-compliant DL/ID requires enhanced security measures that meet mandated federal guidelines. As a result, you must provide documentation confirming your identity, Social Security number, residency and signature. Please note there is no immediate need to apply for a REAL ID- compliant DL/ID. Current Illinois DL/IDs will be accepted to board domestic flights until May 3, 2023. For more information about the REAL ID program, visit REALID.ilsos.gov or call 833-503-4074. As Secretary of State, I will continue to maintain the highest standards when it comes to traffic safety and public service in Illinois.

  • HC-08-17: OFM DMV Enforcement Program
    UNITED STATES MISSION TO THE UNITED NATIONS NEW YORK January 23, 2017 HC-08-17 The United States Mission to the United Nations presents its compliments to the Permanent Missions and Observer Offices to the United Nations and has the honor to reaffirm the longstanding policies of the Department of State regarding the resolution of motor vehicle law violations. The United States Mission refers the Permanent Missions and Observer Offices to the Information Circular Note No. ST/IC/2004/39, dated 9 September 2004, and the Annex thereto from the United States Mission dated 15 July 2004, attached hereto and incorporated by reference herein. This note supersedes previous notes concerning this subject. The Permanent Missions and Observer Offices to the United Nations are reminded that the United States Mission’s traffic Violations policy is based in part on the principle that persons enjoying privileges and immunities in the United States are nevertheless obliged to respect United States laws and regulations. The policy further rests on the principle that the operation of a motor vehicle in the United States is not a right but a privilege that may be withdrawn in cases of abuse. -2- The United States Mission acknowledges that the great majority of members of the foreign mission community operate motor vehicles responsibly and in compliance with local traffic laws and regulations. When cited for traffic violations, however, it is important that Mission members and members of their family (referred to herein as “mission members and family members”) take the appropriate and necessary steps to resolve such offenses. The United States Mission neither intervenes with local jurisdictions to contest cited violations on behalf of persons with immunity, nor does it have the authority to dismiss violations or cancel fines associated with traffic citations.

  • Driver's License Revocation, Suspension, Denial, Cancellation
    Chapter 8: Driver’s License Revocation, Suspension, Denial, Cancellation Certain revocations, suspensions, denials and cancellations can remain on an individual’s driving record permanently. Revocation A revocation is the indefinite withdrawal of driving privileges by the Secretary of State’s office. To regain driving privileges, a driver may be eligible to reapply for a license after a minimum of one year, unless otherwise noted. The Secretary of State’s office has the authority to revoke the driver’s license of a repeat traffic offender. During the course of any revocation, a driver’s vehicle registration may be suspended and notice is given accordingly. The Secretary of State will immediately revoke the driving privileges of anyone who is con- victed of a moving violation that caused a crash and resulted in the death of another person. Other offenses for which a driver’s license may be revoked include, but are not limited to: • Aggravated DUI — Causing personal injury or death as a result of a DUI; having a prior conviction of reckless homicide or aggravated DUI involving a death and committing a DUI; receiving a third or subsequent DUI conviction; committing a DUI without a valid li- cense, permit or vehicle insurance; or committing a DUI violation while transporting chil- dren on a school bus. • Aggravated Fleeing the Police — Driving away from the police when directed to stop. • Aggravated Reckless Driving — Driving resulting in great bodily harm, permanent disability or disfigurement to another person. • Auto Theft — Stealing a motor vehicle or motor vehicle parts. • Drag Racing or Street Racing — Illegally racing with another vehicle.
