What it does

Under current law, the department of transportation (DOT) is authorized to adopt rules providing for the suspension of a person’s driver’s license for up to one year upon days’ notice and without preliminary hearing upon a showing by the DOT’s records or other sufficient evidence that the person has, among other things, permitted an unlawful or fraudulent use of the person’s license.
