New Jersey S1549 allows individuals diagnosed with autism to voluntarily enter medical information in the Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC) database and make notations on their driver's licenses, permits, and non-driver identification cards. The information can be submitted through the MVC's website, by mail, or when filing an application for a motor vehicle record. The MVC will establish a program to assist law enforcement officers in recognizing and effectively communicating with individuals diagnosed with autism.
