License Plate and License Identifiers For People with Special Needs

The Issue

I'm an advocate for driving teenagers and adults with special needs. I have a teenage son with Aspergers Syndrome. We need to have a special symbol or some sort of indicator on license plates and drivers license to alert the police officers that the individual has special needs and have to be handled with care. They also need to know that individuals may respond to commands differently. We want to make sure their actions or responses are not misunderstood and interpreted as them  being defiant. We need to ensure the safety of these individuals. 

Please help get this passed for every state. 

Thank you!
