AN ACT relating to the Department of Motor Vehicles; authorizing the imprinting of individualized symbols or codes for d

Existing law authorizes the Department of Motor Vehicles to adopt regulations establishing a program for the imprinting of a symbol indicating a medical condition on a driver's license or identification card. If such a program is adopted, existing law: (1) requires the Department to adopt a single symbol to indicate that a person has a medical condition; and (2) prohibits the Department from adopting individualized symbols for different medical conditions. (NRS 483.3485, 483.863) Sections 1 and 2 of this bill authorize the Department to adopt individualized symbols or codes for different medical conditions in addition to adopting the required single symbol to indicate that a person has a medical condition. Existing law requires the Department to mail to the registered owner of a motor vehicle a request for information regarding the liability insurance covering the motor vehicle, if the Department is unable to verify that the motor vehicle is covered by a policy of liability insurance. If the Department does not receive the requested information, existing law requires the Department to suspend the registration of the motor vehicle after sending a notice of suspension of registration by certified mail. (NRS 485.317) Section 3 of this bill requires the Department to send a request for information regarding liability insurance coverage by electronic notification, if the registered owner has elected to receive information from the Department by electronic notification.
