(a) The license is currently valid, and has not been revoked, suspended, or otherwise encumbered; and

(b) No charges are currently pending against the holder for violating any of the laws of the State of Georgia dealing with traffic violations, motor vehicles, or illegal drugs, which could result in or contribute to the revocation, suspension or would otherwise encumber the driver's license.
