Motor Vehicles, Titling and Registration - As enacted, authorizes issuance of a free distinguishing placard for eligible disabled veterans to be used in lieu of a distinguishing license plate for parking purposes; authorizes issuance of a distinguishing placard upon payment of the applicable fee for eligible disabled veterans who have been issued a free distinguishing license plate for parking purposes. - Amends TCA Title 55, Chapter 21 and Title 55, Chapter 4.

HB 1350 allows eligible disabled veterans in Tennessee to choose between a free distinguishing placard or a free license plate for parking, instead of requiring both. Veterans who qualify for a free license plate under existing law (TCA § 55-4-256) may now apply for a free placard to use instead. Veterans who already have a free license plate can also obtain a placard by paying the standard passenger vehicle fee ($20 as of current TCA § 55-4-111). This bill amends Tennessee Code §§ 55-21-106 and 55-4-256 to implement these options, effective July 1, 2025.
