 The Medical Affairs Branch of the Registry of Motor Vehicles handles Drivers License Medical Suspensions. It has set minimum standards for vision qualifications, loss of consciousness and seizure conditions, and cardiovascular and respiratory conditions. The Registry has specific standards for arthritis disease, loss of consciousness, vision, cardiovascular disease, respiratory disease, musculo-skeletal issues, diabetes, and epilepsy. When the Registry has cause to believe that a person may be unable to operate a motor vehicle due to any other condition not specifically addressed by the Registry's minimum standards, the Medical Affairs Branch will conduct an individualized assessment of that person's qualifications to operate a motor vehicle safely.
If you are facing a medical license suspension, you have the right to a hearing. Also, if the Registry of Motor Vehicles does not agree to reinstate your license, you have the right to Appeal the Registry's decision to the Board of Appeal. In order to get your license reinstated from a medical license suspension, you will have to produce certain evidence, including a statement from a physician regarding your ability to safely operate a motor vehicle. Our lawyers have handled numerous medical suspension issues and are familiar with the Registry's procedures and requirements. Contact us today to discuss your Medical License Suspension.
