625 ILCS 5/11-501(d)(1)(H) elevates a DUI to aggravated when it occurs in a school zone during restricted hours, at a time when reduced speed limits are posted, and involves a motor vehicle accident resulting in bodily harm. All three conditions must align. The offense becomes a Class 4 felony. The chicagoduilawyer.net defense pattern targets the timing and geography elements aggressively: many alleged school zone stops occurred outside posted hours or beyond the marked boundary. Sign visibility, time-of-day proof, and precise crash location are pressure points that convert felony charging back to misdemeanor prosecution at pretrial conference.
