Driver's licenses: renewal.

Existing law requires an application for renewal of a driver's license to be made at an office of the Department of Motor Vehicles by the person to whom the license was issued. Existing law requires renewal of a license to be under the terms and conditions prescribed by the department, and authorizes the department to require an examination of the applicant as upon an original application, an examination deemed by the department to be appropriate considering the licensee's record of convictions and accidents, or an examination deemed by the department to be appropriate in relation to evidence of a condition that may affect the ability of the applicant to safely operate a motor vehicle. This bill would require a driver's license renewal notice for a person who is required to pass a knowledge examination in order to renew his or her driver's license to provide written notice of that requirement.
