Since it's a privilege not a right, they can probably make something up. Nothing to do with the final crash but upon review of your driving history, we decline to reinstate your license and have updated your status to permanently ineligible.HERE is a good timeline of the case.
As abhorrent as it seems, I don't see how they can get around giving him his license back. He was found 'not guilty' on all counts.
He should have been suspended at the time of the accident, but he wasn't because of faulty system.
The whole thing is a cluster.
WHEN he gets back into drinking/drugs behind the wheel, then that's on him. FTFYIf he gets back into drinking/drugs behind the wheel, then that's on him.
