Bill Summary

Motor vehicles; disability percentage for disabled veteran's license plate revised

AI Summary

This bill revises the requirements for disabled veterans to obtain special license plates for their motor vehicles in Alabama. Previously, a veteran needed to have a physical disability requiring special mechanical control devices or a disability exceeding 50 percent to qualify. This bill changes the disability threshold to be at least 50 percent, making it easier for more disabled veterans to receive these plates. The bill also clarifies that the five-dollar fee for these special plates can be applied to any license plate category the disabled veteran qualifies for, with any additional fees for distinctive or personalized plates still being required. The changes are set to take effect on January 1, 2027.
