Name of Proponent | Phil Roney/Doug Floer |
Short Description | To bring medical examination eligibility period to a safer limit |
Applicable Regulatory Document | Race |
Type of Rule Change | Modification |
Affected Section | 3.6.3 |
Current Regulation | 3.6.3 All examinations must be completed by a licenced medical practitioner using only a CACC |
Proposed Regulation | 3.6.3 All examinations must be completed by a licenced medical practitioner using only a CACC |
Reason for Rule Change | The 180 day grace period allows applicants to use the medical examination form for renewals for multiple years. In the case where the applicant is over 59 years of age, the medical examination form can be used to apply for a license for two consecutive years, which violates the intention of requiring a medical every year for older drivers, presenting a safety and liability risk. The change to 60 days will minimize and/or eliminate the problem. Phil Roney and Doug Floer |
