VEH CD-SOS-HEARINGS

Summary
Amends the Illinois Vehicle Code. Provides that a petition to contest the imposition of a suspension of a person's driving privileges because of the person's refusal to undergo testing for alcohol, drugs, or intoxicating compounds, or because drugs, intoxicating compounds, or alcohol in excess of the legal limit were found in the person's blood, breath, or urine, must be filed within 90 days after the effective date of the suspension. Provides that if a petition is withdrawn, it must be refiled in 90 days. Provides that a petition that has been withdrawn more than twice may not be refiled. Provides that a person whose license has been suspended may subpoena the arresting officer or any other law enforcement officer who participated in the person's arrest to appear at the hearing to contest the suspension. Provides that the failure of a law enforcement officer to appear at the hearing is grounds for a continuance, if the hearing officer considers the continuance appropriate, but not grounds for rescission of the suspension. Makes other changes.
