Governor Pritzker has signed the Stallworth Act into law, which significantly changes the Illinois Vehicle Code. Michael Victor of IFMK Law has prepared a memo for ICRMT members that describes the changes. The new law requires documented training for ambulance operators, mandates the use of sirens and lights when responding to emergencies, and sets specific conditions for operating ambulances and rescue vehicles.
