HF 2476: Relating to driver’s licenses and nonoperator’s identification cards marked to reflect a holder’s nonapparent disability status

What it does

Under current law, a person who has autism spectrum disorder may be issued a driver’s license or nonoperator’s identification card (ID card) that is marked to reflect the person’s autism spectrum disorder status on the face of the license or ID card. This bill instead authorizes a person with a nonapparent disability, as described in the bill, to be issued a driver’s license or ID card marked to reflect the person’s nonapparent disability status. A person must request the person’s license or ID card be marked when the person applies for issuance or renewal of a license or ID card.
