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

HB 292 revises Alabama's law for disabled veteran license plates by lowering the required disability percentage from "more than 50 percent" to "at least 50 percent." This change directly affects disabled veterans in Alabama with exactly 50 percent physical disability, who previously could not qualify for the special plate but would now become eligible. The bill amends Section 32-6-130 of the Alabama Code to update the eligibility threshold, maintaining the existing $5 fee and application process without altering other provisions like plate design or transferability. It becomes effective January 1, 2027.
