MD SB618

Allows Maryland residents to voluntarily add a "nonapparent disability" notation to their driver's license, identification card, or moped operator's permit, covering conditions like developmental and intellectual disabilities that are not immediately visible

Motor Vehicle Administration must place the notation at the bottom of the document, consult with disability advocacy groups on its design, and conduct public outreach about the option—with no fee charged for the notation or corrected documents

Applicants cannot be required to provide proof of their disability, and the MVA cannot deny applications based on disability information mismatches or use the notation to refer individuals to the Medical Advisory Board

Disclosure of nonapparent disability information is restricted and requires a court order, except for sharing with courts, criminal justice agencies, driver licensing authorities, the applicant, their attorney, designated third parties, or the Child Support Administration

Maryland Police Training and Standards Commission must implement training for law enforcement on interacting with individuals who have the nonapparent disability notation; effective October 1, 2025
