The driving license review exam is a provision issued by the Civil Motorization Authority or by the Prefect to check whether the holder of a driving document still possesses the necessary requirements to drive safely. The driver then receives a communication by mail which indicate the need to undergo revision.
This means that the user is required to prove that they can still possess the driving document following psycho-physical tests, who had suspended its validity. In fact, having to take the test again often means that the person’s driving license has been suspended or revoked for the most disparate reasons. The driver must therefore be subjected to a theoretical and/or practical exam similar to that required to obtain a driving license. Based on the results of tests and medical examinations, the license may be confirmed, suspended or revoked.
