82—Vehicle offences and unsuitability to be granted or hold licence or
permit
(1) The Registrar
may—
(a)
refuse to issue a licence or learner's permit to a person or to renew a
person's licence or learner's permit; or
(b)
suspend a person's licence or learner's permit for a specified period; or
(c)
cancel a person's licence and issue in its place a probationary or
provisional licence subject to probationary or provisional licence conditions
effective for a specified period; or
(d)
cancel a person's licence or learner's permit,
if the person has been convicted of or has expiated an offence, or series of
offences, involving the use of a motor vehicle (whether in this State or
elsewhere) such that it appears that the person should not hold a licence or
permit, or should hold a licence subject to conditions, in order to prevent
accident or injury or a repetition of the offence or offences by the person.
(2) If the Registrar
has refused to issue a licence or permit to a person, or to renew a person's
licence or permit, or has cancelled a person's licence or permit, in
accordance with this section, the Registrar may refuse to consider further
applications by the person for the issue or renewal of a licence or permit
if—
(a) it
appears to the Registrar that the person is acting in a frivolous or vexatious
manner in making the applications; or
(b) the
person has failed to provide evidence that satisfies the Registrar that it no
longer appears that the person should not hold a licence or permit in order to
prevent accident or injury or a repetition of the offence or offences by the
person.
