Digest

SB 2001 grants disabled peace officers special benefits related to vehicle registration, toll road discounts, and parking privileges. The bill creates a new specialty license plate for peace officers who became disabled due to injuries sustained in the line of duty. Officers with these plates can register one personal vehicle for free and receive exemptions from toll fees. The bill also provides disabled parking placards and allows these officers to park in disabled-designated spaces without time restrictions.
