This bill mandates the creation of special license plates for qualified disabled veterans in New Jersey, allowing them to park in spaces reserved for persons with disabilities. The Chief Administrator of the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission is tasked with issuing these plates, which will feature the words "Disabled Veteran" and a wheelchair symbol. The application process for these plates will be free of charge, and they are non-transferable, intended solely for the use of the individual to whom they are issued.
Additionally, the bill stipulates that disabled veterans displaying their valid, unexpired qualified disabled veteran license plate are exempt from needing a disability identification card or any other special plates or placards to park in designated spaces. It also establishes that any misuse of the privileges associated with these plates can lead to revocation of benefits and forfeiture of the license plate. The act is set to take effect six months after its enactment, with provisions for anticipatory actions to ensure timely implementation.
