What can you do in case of a CBR suspension?
In the event of a CBR driving licence suspension, you have the right to lodge an objection. This must be submitted in writing to the CBR within six weeks of the decision. Clearly state the reasons why you disagree, such as incorrect medical information or procedural errors. The CBR will handle your objection and may lift, amend or uphold the suspension.
If the objection is rejected, you can appeal to the Administrative Law Division of the District Court. Legal assistance is recommended here, as you must provide evidence of your fitness to drive, such as a medical report from an independent physician. During the procedure, the suspension often remains in effect, unless you request an interim measure from the judge.
Important tips for a successful objection
- Gather all relevant documents, such as medical certificates.
- Engage a specialised traffic law attorney.
- Strictly adhere to deadlines to avoid being declared inadmissible.
According to Article 8:1 of the Awb, you have the right to a hearing and right of reply. Success rates are around 30-40% with proper substantiation. Appeal costs vary, but legal expenses insurance often covers a lot. This way, you maintain your mobility and prevent long-term suspension.
