        Provides that a law enforcement vehicle, fire department vehicle,      
   or other emergency vehicle that  is  plainly  marked  (instead  of  on      
   official business) shall not be required to pay a toll.  Provides that      
   a  law  enforcement,  fire  protection,  or emergency services officer      
   driving a law enforcement,  fire  protection,  or  emergency  services      
   agency  vehicle  that  is  not plainly marked must present an Official      
   Permit Card which the law enforcement, fire protection,  or  emergency      
   services  officer  receives  from  his  or  her  law enforcement, fire      
   protection, or emergency services  agency  in  order  to  use  a  toll      
   highway  without paying the toll.  A law enforcement, fire protection,      
   or emergency services agency must apply to the Authority to receive  a      
   permit,  and  the  Authority  shall  adopt rules for the issuance of a      
   permit, that allows all law enforcement, fire protection, or emergency      
   services agency vehicles that are not plainly marked to use  any  toll      
   highway without paying the toll.
