(1) The declaration of a person as an habitual traffic offender by section 28 may be quashed by a court that convicts the person of a relevant offence (at the time of the conviction or at a later time) if it determines that the disqualification imposed by the declaration is a disproportionate and unjust consequence having regard to the total driving record of the person and the special circumstances of the case.
(2) If a court quashes a declaration under this section, the court must state its reasons for doing so.
(3) However, a declaration or disqualification under this Division cannot be appealed to any court whether under this or any other Act.
