To: Illinois State Legislators
We call upon residents of Illinois and friends elsewhere to join us in backing this petition.
We strongly urge you to consider enacting the following in the state of Illinois:
1) Minimum punishment of 1-2 years drivers license suspension for traffic rule violators in any accident involving death or serious injury
2) Drivers remedial training courses for all traffic offenders (whether or not the violation resulted in injury or death)
3) Higher fines for speeding
4) Limit cellphone use by drivers
We hope that legislation can be taken to improve the safety and well being of all Illinois residents now and into the future.
I lost someone I loved to a reckless driver and I know the pain of seeing nothing change after such a tragedy. I am currently working to get these demands in front of the people at the statehouse who have the power to fix our roads.
March 28, 2003
Seeing this momentum grow brings me right back to the day of my brother's accident when I felt like nobody cared about road safety. Knowing so many of you are fighting for these changes gives me hope that we can finally prevent another family from feeling this pain.

My son was hit by someone speeding through a school zone. Need higher fines for sure. People dont care until it hits their wallet.

Too many people texting while driving on the highway. Its totally out of control and super dangerous for the rest of us.

I see people on their phones every single day on my commute. Put it down or pay the price.

1 year suspension is not enough for taking a life. Should be longer.
