Establishes a voluntary 'blue envelope' program allowing drivers with autism spectrum disorder or trauma and stressor-related disorders to carry and present written communication guidance to law enforcement.
(New Title) establishing a voluntary "blue envelope" program for drivers with autism spectrum disorders and trauma and stressor-related disorders.
To The Chair and Committee Members, I thank representative Newell for bringing the bill forward. This is a win for challenged person as well as anyone that may need to assist him/her at any time. The more information provided to those involved will assist in the tools to better serve/respond to each situation. Rep Harriott-Gathright Hills 10
This bill is very helpful to establish a program, named the Blue Envelope Program, where a motor vehicle driver with an autism spectrum disorder may carry and present to law enforcement a blue envelope containing written information and guidance on effective communication with the driver.
As the mother of an autistic 17 year old son, this program would be very helpful for our family. My son does have special communication needs, but wants very much to learn how to drive. This would make it more safe for him, and give me peace of mind.
