AL SB436

Amends Section 32-6-231 of the Alabama Code to require windshield placards for special or disability access parking to display the full name of the disabled individual to whom the placard was issued.

The full name requirement applies to all removable windshield placards issued by the Commissioner of Revenue, which must conform to federal standards under Public Law 100-641.

Placards for long-term disabilities expire after a maximum of five years and must clearly display the expiration date; temporary disability placards are valid for up to six months.

A second placard may be issued upon request to individuals with disabilities who do not have a distinctive special access or disability access license plate.

The act becomes effective January 1, 2014.
