Bill Summary
An Act amending Title 75 (Vehicles) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in registration of vehicles, further providing for person with disability plate and placard; in fees, further providing for exemption of persons, entities and vehicles from fees; and, in powers of department and local authorities, further providing for specific powers of department and local authorities.
AI Summary
This bill amends Title 75 (Vehicles) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes to: (1) phase out existing "handicapped" placards and require the Department of Transportation (PennDOT) to use "accessibility" and "accessible" terminology instead; (2) exempt nonprofit organizations that principally serve individuals with mental or physical disabilities from vehicle registration fees; and (3) update the definitions of "administer" and "enforce" in cities of the first, second, and third classes to reflect the use of "accessible" terminology for parking-related signage and permit programs.
