Motor vehicles; driver licenses; designation of certain medical conditions, provided for
HB 68 would require Alabama's state law enforcement agency to create a voluntary designation system for driver licenses and nondriver ID cards. Individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder or certain communication disorders could choose to have a discreet symbol added to their license or ID card, without any additional fee. To qualify, applicants would need to provide proof of diagnosis from a licensed Alabama physician. The bill directly affects Alabamians with these conditions who opt to use this designation for identification purposes. The system would become effective October 1, 2026.
