HB 74 -- Placards for the Deaf or Hearing Impaired

Sponsor:  Smith

This bill allows the Missouri Commission for the Deaf to design
and issue removable windshield placards and windshield decals to
be used in vehicles operated by deaf or hearing impaired
persons.  The placard may be hung from the rearview mirror and a
decal may be affixed to the lower left corner of the rear window
of a vehicle.

Any Missouri resident who is deaf or hearing impaired may apply
to the commission for a placard or decal upon payment of a fee
not to exceed $2.

The commission will be required to promote public awareness of
the meaning of the placards and decals prior to or in
conjunction with their issuance.
