DMV Medical Re-Examination Process
What is it?
Someone somewhere notified DMV of a driver who is not physically fit to drive. DMV is required by law to suspend your drivers license pending a medical re-examination.
DMV then requires you to submit a medical drivers evaluation and will then set a hearing in the county where you reside.
It is crucial that you obtain a qualified drivers license lawyer before the hearing is scheduled. The reason is that once the hearing is made, the hearing is assigned to a hearing officer who will then decide if you are fit to drive. These hearing officers are not created equal. Some are reasonable, others must be avoided at all costs. Call 877-717-2889 for more information.
When can I get my license back?
The DMV suspension period due to medical re-examination is an indefinite suspension. The suspension for medical reasons is not a punishment. Rather, it is DMV's way of protecting society from drivers who are not physically fit to drive. This suspension will continue until you can prove to one of the DMV hearing officers that you are in fact, physically fit to drive.
Why do I need an an attorney for this process?
Just like other DMV employees, all Hearing Offices are not created equal. Some are reasonable and understand an individual's need to drive. Others are apathetic, to put it midly.
An experienced DMV attorney will also request a hearing under the best circumstances to better your chances to win your right to drive back. We will also repersent you at your hearing, objecting to any questions the Hearing Officer might ask that may infring on your rights.
An experienced DMV attorney reviews the re-examination application for potential issues that would cause a Hearing Officer to continue to suspend your license.
