Section 735-062-0360 - Regulation of Rehabilitation Specialists and Programs Offered
Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 3, March 1, 2024
DMV will regulate a person certified as a rehabilitation training specialist as well as the training program that the specialist provides to persons issued a special limited vision condition learner's permit.
(1) DMV may, without prior notice, send a representative to observe any part of the training given by a specialist to a person with a limited vision condition who uses a bioptic telescopic lens. If DMV determines that the training provided does not meet the requirements of OAR 735-062-0330 DMV may:
(2) The specialist must provide records to the school for a driver with telescopic lens to be retained as required for any other student of the commercial driver training school or educational facility.
(3) A specialist must not provide behind-the-wheel training to the person with a limited vision condition until the person's special limited vision condition learner's permit is received. A failure to comply with the restriction of the special limited vision condition learner's permit will result in the sanctioning of the rehabilitation training specialist certificate as follows:
(4) Failure to comply with OAR 735-062-0320(6), 735-062-0350(5), or 735-062-0360(2) will result in:
(5) If a limited vision condition applicant is unable to pass a DMV drive test in two attempts, DMV may question the validity of the Certificate of Competency issued by the specialist. DMV may require the specialist to accompany the applicant and a DMV representative on a drive. If the applicant clearly does not demonstrate driving ability to be issued a Certificate of Competency as described in OAR 735-062-0370, DMV may suspend the rehabilitation specialist certificate until the specialist can show that he or she has attended additional specific instruction in the training of limited vision condition drivers using a bioptic telescopic lens deemed acceptable by DMV or the emphasis of the training has changed to properly train a limited vision condition driver.
