Bill Title: Amends the Illinois Vehicle Code. Provides that a lessor of a motor vehicle may not be held liable for automated traffic law violations if the lessor timely provides the name and address of the lessee. Authorizes a county or municipality to hold the lessee of a motor vehicle liable for an automated traffic law violation (rather than only holding the registered owner of a motor vehicle strictly liable). Provides that service of notice to a lessee of an automated traffic law violation may occur no later than 210 days after the violation. Provides that for both parking and automated traffic law violations, if there is any dispute as to whether the lessor of the motor vehicle timely provided the identity of the lessee to the appropriate authority, the lessor shall be afforded 30 extra days to supply the necessary information.
