New Disabled Parking Permit Rules

Starting January 1st 2010, Oregonians that use disabled parking permits must provide the DMV with certification signed and dated within six months preceding the date of application,of their disability by a licensed physician, a certified nurse practitioner or a licensed physician assistant, each time they renew their licenses.

Drivers previously needed medical confirmation only when they first applied for a permit. Some drivers continued using the placards after their disabilities ended
even though stiff penalties and fines up to $450.00 exist .

Senate Bill 937 passed legislation early this year and will amend ORS 811.604
