MOTOR VEHICLES: Creates a special prestige license plate for "Telecommunicators" and for the "Special Needs Advocacy, Support and Inclusion of Abilities". (8/1/24) (EN SEE FISC NOTE GF EX See Note)
This bill creates two new special license plates in Louisiana: one for telecommunicators and another for special needs advocacy and support groups. The legislation amends existing statutes to authorize the Department of Public Safety to issue these plates, which are intended to identify vehicles used by these specific organizations. By adding a new section to the relevant code, the bill provides a formal mechanism for these groups to display their affiliation on their vehicles.
