How to Obtain a Handicapped Mirror Plaque

If you have difficulty walking very far or use a wheelchair or cane, you may qualify for a handicapped mirror plaque. A handicapped mirror plaque allows you to park in designated handicapped parking spaces, so you do not have to walk so far from your car to your destination. Regulations regarding handicapped mirror plaques vary somewhat from state to state, so check with the department of motor vehicles in your state for more information. You must obtain a handicapped mirror plaque from the department of motor vehicles in the state in which you live.
