Proof that a particular device casts a small red dot or other similar small and discrete image or small and discrete visual signal upon a target surface at least 15 feet away creates a rebuttable presumption that the device is a laser. Flashlights and similar lamps, lanterns, lights, and penlights are not laser devices.","path":["CHAPTER 720 CRIMINAL OFFENSES","Criminal Code of 2012."],"source_url":"https://www.ilga.gov/legislation/ILCS/details?ActID=1876\u0026ChapterID=53\u0026ChapAct=FullText\u0026Print=True","current_through":"at least Public Act 104-790","vintage":"","retrieved_at":"2026-09-15T04:46:41Z","sha256":"d13ce897b5c5de3981ec19621b331420583f556415245da8d3825697a9764b48","source_id":"us-il","stale":false,"prev":"us-il/720-ilcs-5-2-10.1","next":"us-il/720-ilcs-5-2-10.3"},"notice":"GroundRules: Original legal text.
