Bill Summary
Requiring that an application for a license, an identification card, or a moped operator's permit allow an applicant to indicate the applicant's nonapparent disability; and requiring the Motor Vehicle Administration to ensure that the license, identification card, or moped operator's permit of an applicant who indicates that the applicant has a nonapparent disability includes an "ND" notation.
AI Summary
This bill requires the Motor Vehicle Administration (MVA) to allow applicants for a license, identification card, or moped operator's permit to indicate if they have a "nonapparent disability", such as Alzheimer's disease, autism, or a hearing impairment. The MVA must then ensure that the issued credential includes an "ND" notation to signify the nonapparent disability. The bill also prohibits the MVA from requiring proof of the disability or denying an application based on a mismatch between the disability indicated on the application and other documents. The bill is set to take effect on October 1, 2024.
