Racial Profiling Application
|
|
On July 18th, 2003 Governor Blagojevich signed a new Senate Bill into law. This
law establishes a four year statewide study of traffic stops to collect data to
identify racial bias. The study began on January 1st, 2004.
The Illinois Department of Transportation(IDOT) is responsible for
collecting and compiling the data. IDOT has developed an Internet self
reporting application for submission of the data. Agencies have two options for
entering data into the IDOT data collection system.
-
The agency can use the IDOT web site to enter data on individual stops.
-
The agency will have the option to compile the data using their own data
application. The data can be exported from this application into a text file
that can then be uploaded to IDOT’s web site.
Agencies using their own applications are encouraged to upload
their data to IDOT at least once a month.
All agencies will need to be registered in order to enter or upload
data using this web site. They will also need to be registered in order to
download the standalone applications. In order to register, please call
Sandy Klein at (217) 558-0568.
