A person to whom this Part is applicable will be deemed to be fit for licensing insofar as this Part is concerned if:

(a) such person has not experienced a loss of consciousness within the previous 12-month period, and such person submits a physician's, physician assistant's or nurse practitioner's statement confirming such fact;

(b) such person has experienced loss of consciousness within the previous 12-month period, if such loss of consciousness was due solely to a directed change in medication by a physician, a physician assistant, or nurse practitioner, and such person submits a physician's, a physician assistant's, or nurse practitioner's statement confirming such fact and the commissioner acting after recommendation of his medical consultant finds no grounds to disagree with or to question the physician's, physician assistant's or nurse practitioner's statement; or

(c) such person has experienced loss of consciousness within the previous 12-month period, if such person submits a physician's, physician assistant's or nurse practitioner's statement confirming the physician's, physician assistant's or nurse practitioner's awareness of any or all such incidents and notwithstanding such history, the physician, physician assistant or nurse practitioner recommends licensing by making a positive statement that, in his or her opinion, the condition will not interfere with such person's safe operation of a vehicle on the public highway, and the commissioner acting after recommendation of his or her medical consultant finds no grounds to disagree with or to question the physician's, physician assistant's or nurse practitioner's statement.
