§ 5071. New physical, visual or mental examinations

Whenever the Secretary should have reasonable grounds to believe that a person with a license to operate motor vehicles is not physically, visually or mentally fit to do so, as the case may be, including frequent violations to the provisions of this chapter or its regulations, he shall require such person to undergo a physical, visual or mental examination, as the case may be, by those physicians designated by the Secretary. Said examination shall cover those aspects that the Secretary may deem pertinent, including that the person could be requested to take new practical and written examinations in order to demonstrate his/her capability to operate a motor vehicle, according to the type of license he/she holds.

Refusal to undergo such examinations shall empower the Secretary to revoke the driver’s license to said person.
