Part 7410.2900 - OTHER RESTRICTED LICENSES

Subpart 1. Issuance.

When a person has failed, after three attempts, to pass the driver's license examination, but can establish a genuine need to be able to drive, the person may apply for a restricted license. All such applications shall be referred to the chief driver evaluator. The applicant must undergo examination by an examining supervisor, who shall determine the risk involved, and forward written recommendations including, when applicable, suggested basic restrictions, to the chief driver examiner for forwarding to the chief driver evaluator. The chief driver evaluator shall review the entire record and determine whether any driving privileges may be authorized.

Subp. 2. Cancellation.

Any restricted licenses issued shall be subject to cancellation whenever the commissioner determines that the person has violated the restrictions imposed. The commissioner may notify local law enforcement agencies of the issuance of any special restricted license and of the restrictions involved. Any report of a violation of the restrictions shall be referred to the chief driver evaluator for consideration. Any conviction indicating a violation of the restrictions shall result in cancellation. After cancellation no driving privileges may be allowed until the commissioner determines that the licensee can be trusted to operate within the restrictions imposed. Any reinstatement may be conditioned upon compliance with additional restrictions for such period as the commissioner may direct.
