Establishes program allowing NJ licensed drivers to self-identify as having been diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder.
This bill establishes a voluntary program for New Jersey drivers diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) to self-identify. Participants must submit a medical certification form (signed by a doctor) to their local police department, which then issues a distinctive decal to place on their vehicle. When police stop a vehicle displaying this decal, they must recognize the driver's PTSD diagnosis and adjust their approach accordingly. The program requires the State Police to create a database of participants and develop training for law enforcement on interacting with drivers who have PTSD. The bill directly affects licensed drivers with a PTSD diagnosis who choose to enroll.
