New Jersey A3277 mandates that a hearing-impairment designation be printed on the front of driver's licenses for individuals with significant hearing.

New Jersey A3277 amends existing law to require the Chief Administrator of the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission to print a hearing-impairment designation on the front of special driver's licenses. This applies to applicants with a hearing loss of 41 decibels or greater, verified by an otorhinolaryngologist or an audiologist certified by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association. The designation can be either the international symbol for deafness or a numerical code, as specified by the applicant. The design of the special driver's license must be approved by the Chief Administrator.
