§ 13a.6.

(from Ch. 120, par. 429a6) Sec. 13a.6. In addition to any other penalties imposed by this Act: (a) If a commercial motor vehicle is found operating in Illinois (i) without displaying decals required by Section 13a.4 of this Act, or in lieu thereof only for the period specified on the temporary permit, a valid 30-day International Fuel Tax Agreement temporary permit, (ii) without carrying a motor fuel use tax license as required by Section 13a.4 of this Act, (iii) without carrying a single trip permit, when applicable, as provided in Section 13a.5 of this Act, or (iv) with a revoked motor fuel use tax license, the operator is guilty of a petty offense and must pay a minimum of $75. For each subsequent occurrence, the operator must pay a minimum of $150. When a commercial motor vehicle is found operating in Illinois with a revoked motor fuel use tax license, the vehicle shall be placed out of service and not allowed to operate in Illinois until the motor fuel use tax license is reinstated. (b) If a commercial motor vehicle is found to be operating in Illinois without a valid motor fuel use tax license and without properly displaying decals required by Section 13a.4 or without a valid single trip permit when required by Section 13a.5 of this Act or a valid 30-day International Fuel Tax Agreement temporary permit, the person required to obtain a license or permit under Section 13a.4 or 13a.5 of this Law must pay a minimum of $1,000 as a penalty. For each subsequent occurrence, the person must pay a minimum of $2,000 as a penalty. All penalties received under this Section shall be deposited into the Tax Compliance and Administration Fund. Improper use of the motor fuel use tax license, single trip permit, or decals provided for in this Section may be cause for revocation of the license. For purposes of this Section, "motor fuel use tax license" means (i) a motor fuel use tax license issued by the Department or by any member jurisdiction under the International Fuel Tax Agreement, or (ii) a valid 30-day International Fuel Tax Agreement temporary permit.
