Motor vehicles, license plates, issuance of "Invisible Disability" decals, authorized
SB 329 authorizes Alabama to issue "Invisible Disability" license plate decals to residents diagnosed with specific invisible disabilities (such as autism, PTSD, diabetes, or cognitive disabilities) or their primary caregivers. To qualify, applicants must provide a physician's diagnosis, pay standard registration fees, and submit a formal application. The decal is separate from existing disability parking permits and does not grant special parking access, as clarified in the bill. This policy, effective January 1, 2027, aims to provide a visible identifier for individuals with conditions that may affect communication with first responders.
