People v. Wawczak
Illinois Supreme Court
1Opinion of the CourtJustice Moran
Defendant, Donald Wawczak, was charged with a violation of section 11 — 1003.1 of the Illinois Vehicle Code (the section) (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1983, ch. 95½, par. 11—1003.1), a petty offense pursuant to section 11 — 202 of the Illinois Vehicle Code (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1983, ch. 95½, par. 11—202). The circuit court of Du Page County dismissed the charge, holding that the section was “vague and ambiguous.” The State appealed directly to this court pursuant to Supreme Court Rule 603 (87 Ill. 2d R. 603). The sole question presented for review is whether the section is unconstitutionally vague.
