461	license and who is cited while driving a noncommercial motor

469	subsection in the 12 months preceding election hereunder. No
470	person may make more than three elections under this subsection.

520	remain on the records of the department for a period of 7 years
521	from the date imposed and shall be removed from the records
522	after the expiration of 7 years from the date it is imposed.
523	(c)  A person charged with a traffic infraction may request

1576	disabled parking permit of any person certified as permanently
1577	disabled on the application if the person applies for renewal in
1578	person and provides a current certificate of disability pursuant

1580	person does not apply if the severity of the disability prevents

1582	to a driver license or tax collector office and the certifying
1583	physician has signed an additional section of the department's
1584	parking permit application to exempt the disabled person from
1585	the appearance requirement.
1586	(e)  The Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles

1593	certified as provided in this subsection.
1594	(2)  DISABLED PARKING PERMIT; PERSONS WITH LONG-TERM
1595	MOBILITY PROBLEMS.-
1596	(a)  The disabled parking permit is a placard that can be

1598	rear of the vehicle. Each side of the placard must have the
1599	international symbol of accessibility in a contrasting color in
1600	the center so as to be visible. One side of the placard must
1601	display the applicant's driver's license number or state
1602	identification card number along with a warning that the
1603	applicant must have such identification at all times while using
1604	the parking permit. In those cases where the severity of the
1605	disability prevents a disabled person from physically visiting
1606	or being transported to a driver license or tax collector office
1607	to obtain a driver's license or identification card, a
1608	certifying physician may sign the exemption section of the
1609	department's parking permit application to exempt the disabled
1610	person from being issued a driver's license or identification
1611	card for the number to be displayed on the parking permit. A
1612	validation sticker must also be issued with each disabled
1613	parking permit, showing the month and year of expiration on each
1614	side of the placard. Validation stickers must be of the size
1615	specified by the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles
1616	and must be affixed to the disabled parking permits. The
1617	disabled parking permits must use the same colors as license
1618	plate validations.
1619	(b)  License plates issued under ss. 320.084, 320.0842,
1620	320.0843, and 320.0845 are valid for the same parking privileges
1621	and other privileges provided under ss. 316.1955, 316.1964, and
1622	526.141(5)(a).
1623	(c)  The department shall not issue an additional disabled
1624	parking permit unless the applicant states that he or she is a
1625	frequent traveler or a quadriplegic. The department may not
1626	issue to any one eligible applicant more than two disabled
1627	parking permits except to an organization in accordance with
1628	paragraph (1)(e). Subsections (1), (5), (6), and (7) apply to
1629	this subsection.
1630	(d)  If an applicant who is a disabled veteran, is a
1631	resident of this state, has been honorably discharged, and
1632	either has been determined by the Department of Defense or the
1633	United States Department of Veterans Affairs or its predecessor
1634	to have a service-connected disability rating for compensation
1635	of 50 percent or greater or has been determined to have a
1636	service-connected disability rating of 50 percent or greater and
1637	is in receipt of both disability retirement pay from the United
1638	States Department of Veterans Affairs, he or she must still
1639	provide a signed physician's statement of qualification for the
1640	disabled parking permits.
1641	(e)  To obtain a replacement for a disabled parking permit
1642	that has been lost or stolen, a person must appear in person,
1643	submit an application on a form prescribed by the department,
1644	and must pay a replacement fee in the amount of $1.00, to be
1645	retained by the issuing agency. If the person submits with the
1646	application a police report documenting that the permit was
1647	stolen, there is no replacement fee. The requirement to apply
1648	for replacement in person does not apply if the severity of the
1649	disability prevents a disabled person from physically visiting
1650	or being transported to a driver license or tax collector
1651	office, and the certifying physician has signed an additional
1652	section of the department's parking permit application to exempt
1653	the disabled person from the appearance requirement.
1654	(f)  A person who qualifies for a disabled parking permit
1655	under this section may be issued an international wheelchair
