Illinois Administrative Code › Title 92 - TRANSPORTATION › Part 1040 - CANCELLATION, REVOCATION OR SUSPENSION OF LICENSES OR PERMITS › Section 1040.70 - Problem Driver Pointer System

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
a)
			 Before issuing or renewing a license for every non-CDL applicant, the
			 Department shall make a request through the Problem Driver Pointer System
			 (PDPS) and the Commercial Driver License Information System (CDLIS) to
			 determine the applicant's eligibility. When a probable match is a result of an
			 inquiry search, the system points the inquiring licensing jurisdiction (State
			 of Inquiry (SOI)) to the licensing jurisdiction that recorded the adverse
			 action against the driver in question (State of Record (SOR)).
b) Before issuing a commercial driver's
			 license (CDL), the Department shall make a driver history record request
			 through both PDPS and CDLIS for driving records from every state in which the
			 applicant has been licensed in the last 10 years. The Secretary shall perform
			 the record checks no earlier than 24 hours prior to issuance if the license is
			 to be issued to a driver who does not currently possess a valid CDL from the
			 State of Illinois and no earlier than 10 days prior to issuance for all other
			 drivers. When a probable match is a result of an inquiry search, the system
			 points the SOI to the SOR.
c) If
			 the applicant has been denied issuance of an Illinois license, certain
			 information shall be required from the other state and/or applicant, and, upon
			 review of the information, a determination of the applicant's eligibility for
			 licensing in the State of Illinois will be made.
d) The Department will receive a daily report
			 that will identify selected applicants issued an Illinois license to determine
			 if the new applicant is eligible to retain his/her Illinois license and/or
			 privilege. The Department shall then verify the validity of the applicant's
			 driving status by contacting the SOR and/or the National Driver Register
			 (NDR).
e) If it is determined from
			 the review that the applicant is not eligible for an Illinois license due to
			 the withdrawal of his/her driving privileges by another state, the Department
			 shall cancel the driving privileges pursuant to IVC Section
			 6-201(a)(5).
f) If an applicant has
			 falsified information on an application for a driver's license, the applicant
			 shall be suspended pursuant to IVC Section 6-206(a)(9) for 12 months if it is
			 the first offense. If it is the second offense or if the driving record
			 contains an open or pending revocation, driving privileges shall be revoked
			 pursuant to IVC Section 6-206(a)(9).
g) After cancellation, full driving
			 privileges shall not be restored until after restoration in the other state and
			 a clearance letter or verification from that state is received and processed by
			 the Department.
h) If a person's
			 driving privileges have been suspended, his/her driving privileges shall be
			 restored at the termination of the suspension and upon acceptance of the
			 required reinstatement fee as provided for in IVC Section 6-118. A person whose
			 driving privileges have been revoked, is eligible to be considered for
			 reinstatement of driving privileges after the successful completion of all
			 necessary requirements of the Department pursuant to IVC Section
			 2-110.
i) Upon receipt of a request
			 from the driver licensing authority of another state for the driver history
			 record of a person applying for a CDL who is currently or previously licensed
			 by Illinois, the Department shall provide the information to the requesting
			 state within 30 days.
