A simple blue envelope is intended to head off misunderstanding and negative interactions between police and people with autism when they are pulled over on the road.
Launched in January 2020 and available at many police departments and state Department of Motor Vehicles offices, the envelopes may not be as well known as they would have been if the COVID-19 pandemic had not hit two months later.
