Latest version.
  • (a)

    If a representative designated by the director to enforce this chapter determines that a licensee has failed to comply with this chapter (except section 35-32) or a regulation established under this chapter, the representative may suspend the taxicab, limousine, bus, shuttle, pedicab, or horse drawn carriage driver's license for a period of time not to exceed three (3) days by personally serving the licensee with a written notice of the suspension. The written notice must include the reason for suspension, the date the suspension begins, the duration of the suspension, and a statement informing the licensee of his right of appeal in accordance with subsections (b) and (c).

    (b)

    A suspension under this section may be appealed to the director or his assistant if the licensee requests an appeal at the time the representative serves notice of suspension. When appeal is requested, the suspension may not take effect until the director or his assistant provides a hearing.

    (c)

    The director may order an expedited hearing under this section, to be held as soon as possible after the licensee requests an appeal. The director may affirm, reverse, or modify the order of the representative. The decision of the director is final.
