Driver's licence suspension for drug dependence confirmed pending medical evidence of successful treatment.
The applicant appealed a decision of the Registrar of Motor Vehicles to suspend her driver's licence under section 47(1) of the Highway Traffic Act.
The suspension was based on medical reports indicating drug dependence and poor judgment while under the influence of medications.
The Licence Appeal Tribunal found that the Registrar was justified in suspending the licence and continuing the suspension until the applicant provides medical confirmation of successful treatment and abstinence from opioids for six months.
The decision of the Registrar was confirmed.
