     3    6.  The  commissioner  may require any licensed driver to submit to an
     4  examination or reexamination prior to his or  her  normal  renewal  date
     5  upon  receipt  of  a  recommendation from a court having jurisdiction of
     6  traffic offenses, or the governor or chief  magistrate  of  a  state  or
     7  territory  stating  that the driver's ability to operate a motor vehicle
     8  safely is questionable. In reviewing such licensed  driver's  qualifica-
     9  tions  to  operate a motor vehicle, the commissioner shall only consider
    10  the previous ten years of the licensed driver's driving record.
    11    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
