NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — There's a bill I'm following in the legislature that could make it easier for people to register for disabled license plates or placards.
The proposal would allow licensed chiropractors to complete statements of disability to accompany a person's application for the plates.
Right now, only physicians and physical therapists can do that. So this could open the door to make it easier for some people to acquire the plates.
I looked it up, and as of last year, the Tennessee Department of Revenue reported there were about 190-thousand license plates registered for people with disabilities.
September 11, 2001 is a day most associate with terror and tragedy. Austin Pollack shares a story from that day about hope and persistence: the effort to save a little girl’s life – with an organ donation. The problem? The young patient was in Houston, and her life-saving liver here in Nashville. With the grounding of all civilian aircraft, how could it be done? “Nobody ever said this isn’t possible.”
