I  wrote a letter to the Department of Motor Vehicles  expressing my  
discontent  with  the new style  California  Disabled  Person Parking  
Placards.   In  response, I got a phone  call  from  Ms.  Lucretia  Day  (DMV 
- Sacramento) at 916-657-7654, who  said  she would   send   me  a  new  
placard,  since  mine   was   damaged.  Furthermore, she explained that some 
sort of 'improved  material' for the placards is in the works.  Ms. Day 
suggested that  anyone needing  a  new  placard  write to the  DMV,  P.O.  
Box 
 #932345, Sacramento,   CA   94232.   Mark  the  envelope   ATTN:   Special 
Processing.  If someone wants to suggest to the DMV what they can do with 
their new style of placard, write to the same address but mark the envelope 
ATTN: Public Inquiry.  BTW, you can get a  copy of  the CA Vehicle Code by 
sending a check for $3.00 to the  same address,  mark  the check and 
envelope, Request  -  Vehicle  Code Book.
When I asked Ms. Day whether there had been many complaints about the new 
placards, she said 'no.'  It is my hope that this message will cause her to 
change her response to that question.
