The following words and terms, when used in this section, shall have the following meanings, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.

1. (1) Address of record--refers to the address established as the licensee's residence address that is on record with the Department.
2. (2) Hearing location--will be determined by the address of record at the time the notice of suspension is sent. However, if the licensee denotes a new address on the request for hearing that address will be used for setting the hearing.
3. (3) Mailing address--an official address provided by the licensee through application for an original, renewal or duplicate license.
4. (4) Moving violation--any act committed in connection with the operation of a motor vehicle on a public street or highway, which constitutes a hazard to traffic and is prohibited by state law or city ordinance. Does not include violations exempt by statute.

5. (5) Reexamination of drivers--will normally consist of a comprehensive review of the required examinations including the vision, rules and signs tests, and a driving demonstration. The driving demonstration is to determine if restrictions or limitations should be imposed, and may be more intensive than a routine driving test. Guidelines for requiring the reexamination include:

   1. (A) minimum of six entries (convictions for moving violations and accidents where negligence is indicated) in a two-year period with a minimum of 3 entries within the 12 month period proceeding the examination request;
   2. (B) determined by a driver improvement analyst following a review of two or more accidents within a 12-month period in which the licensee was at fault;
   3. (C) recommendation by proper medical authority following a professional evaluation of the medical facts; or
   4. (D) recommendation by an experienced field representative of the department or any law enforcement agency following a thorough investigation showing clear and convincing evidence that such examination is reasonable and necessary.
