What must drivers do to reinstate a license suspended for two years or more?

To reinstate a license that has been suspended for two years or more, individuals are required to pass a learner's permit exam and road test. This requirement is in place to ensure that drivers are still qualified and competent to operate a vehicle safely, especially after a prolonged period of suspension.

The process of taking both the learner's permit exam and the road test helps to confirm that the driver is up-to-date with current traffic laws and safe driving practices. It serves as a comprehensive way to assess their readiness to return to the road, as driving conditions, regulations, and vehicles may have changed during their time of suspension.

While other actions, such as completing a defensive driving course or paying a reinstatement fee, may also be part of the overall reinstatement process, they do not fulfill the specific requirement of demonstrating driving competence through testing. Submitting a medical clearance pertains to specific health-related suspensions, but does not apply universally to all license reinstatement scenarios after a long suspension.
