The other day, as I was watching my wife carry in a metric ton or two of Halloween candy from the garage, I happened upon an article that was talking about the hard line being drawn on Halloween trick-or-treaters by the city of Roanoke, Virginia.
Scraping through a few hundred municipal codes in Illinois didn’t turn up any trick-or-treat ordinances allowing for jail time. But fines associated with age limits, curfews, masks and more were plentiful.
Under the proposed bill, a person caught streaming video while driving could be fined a maximum of $75 for a first offense and up to $150 for offenses that follow.
Illinois drivers may soon face a first time fine of $100 if you have kids in your car, and are caught smoking, under new legislation proposed in Springfield.
If a new bill in the Illinois Senate makes its way through the process and becomes law, Illinois students who threaten a school with violence will be forced to pay for the emergency response.
