6.The Chief Administrator of the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission shall issue a nursing home resident with a disability identification card and corresponding windshield placard upon the application of a nursing home owner or operator for use in a vehicle owned or operated by the nursing home when that vehicle is used to transport nursing home residents with disabilities. The identification card and corresponding windshield placard shall identify the nursing home owner or operator and the registration number of the nursing home's vehicle for which the card is issued, and shall state that: the nursing home owner or operator is validly qualified to receive the identification card and corresponding windshield placard; the identification card and corresponding windshield placard are for the exclusive use of the nursing home's vehicle when transporting a nursing home resident with a disability; the identification card and corresponding windshield placard are not transferable and will be forfeited if used for purposes not authorized under this act; and an abuse of any privilege, benefit, precedence or consideration granted to a person to whom the identification card and corresponding windshield placard are issued will be sufficient cause for revocation of the identification card and corresponding windshield placard and the same may be forfeited or revoked accordingly, and in the absence of a forfeiture or revocation, the identification card and corresponding windshield placard are valid indefinitely.
The windshield placard shall be displayed on the vehicle when the vehicle is used to transport nursing home residents with disabilities. A vehicle displaying this windshield placard is authorized to park in a space appropriately marked for vehicles for persons with physical disabilities only when delivering or receiving nursing home residents with disabilities from one location to another. The vehicle is not permitted to park in parking spaces designated for persons with disabilities when it is not transporting nursing home residents with disabilities.
The fee for the issuance of the identification card and corresponding windshield placard issued pursuant to this section is $4.00 and is payable to the Chief Administrator of the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission.
