MTR VEHICLE/DRIVER LIC: Provides for a special identification card designation for citizens with traumatic brain injury

HB 679 creates a special identification card designation for Louisiana residents diagnosed with traumatic brain injury (TBI), allowing them to display this status on their state ID cards. To qualify, applicants must provide a medical statement from a licensed professional verifying their TBI diagnosis, with no additional fee required for the designation. The bill also establishes penalties for false claims (fines up to $500 or jail time) and mandates new law enforcement training to improve officers' awareness and communication when interacting with individuals with TBI.
