(Description of Legal Problem)

By submitting this questionnaire, you are not forming an attorney-client relationship. The only way to establish an attorney-client relationship with a criminal defense attorney or DUI / DWI criminal defense lawyer at The Kavinoky Law Firm is to sign a written retainer agreement and comply with its terms.

13372. (a) The department shall ( )1 refuse to issue or renew, or shall suspend or revoke an ambulance driver certificate if any of the following apply to the applicant or certificate holder:

  1. Is required to register as a sex offender under Section 290 of the Penal Code for any offense involving force, violence, threat, or intimidation.
  2. Habitually or excessively uses or is addicted to narcotics or dangerous drugs.
  3. Is on parole or probation for any felony, theft, or any crime involving force, violence, threat, or intimidation.

(b) The department may ( )1 refuse to issue or renew, or may suspend or revoke an ambulance driver certificate if any of the following apply to the applicant or certificate holder:

  1. Has been convicted ( )2 within seven years of any offense punishable as a felony or has been convicted during that period of any theft.
  2. Has committed any act involving moral turpitude, including fraud or intentional dishonesty for personal gain, within ( )3 seven years.
  3. Habitually and excessively uses intoxicating beverages.
  4. Has been convicted within ( )3 seven years of any offense ( )4 relating to the use, sale, possession, or transportation of narcotics or addictive or dangerous drugs, or of any misdemeanor involving force, violence, threat, or intimidation.
  5. Is on probation to the department for a cause involving the unsafe operation of a motor vehicle.
  6. Within ( )5 three years ( )6 has had his or her driver’s license suspended or revoked by the department for a cause involving the unsafe operation of a motor vehicle, or, within the same period, has been convicted of any of the following:
    1. Failing to stop and render aid in an accident involving injury or death.
    2. ( )7 Driving-under-the-influence of intoxicating liquor, any drug, or under the combined influence of intoxicating liquor and any drug.
    3. Reckless driving, or reckless driving involving bodily injury.
  7. Has knowingly ( )8 made a false statement or failed to disclose a material fact in his ( )9 or her application. ( )10.
  8. Has been involved as a driver in any motor vehicle accident causing death or bodily injury or in three or more motor vehicle accidents ( )11 within one year.
  9. Does not meet minimum medical standards specified in this code or in regulations adopted pursuant to this code.
  10. Has demonstrated irrational behavior or incurred a physical disability to the extent that a reasonable and prudent person would have reasonable cause to believe that the ability to perform the duties normally expected of an ambulance driver may be impaired.
  11. Has violated any provision of this code or any rule or regulation adopted by the Commissioner of the California Highway Patrol relating to the operation of emergency ambulances ( )11 within one year.
  12. Has committed any act that warrants dismissal, as provided in Section 13373.

(c) ( )12 (1) Reapplication following refusal or revocation under subdivision (a) or (b) may be made after a period of not less than one year after the effective date of the refusal or revocation, except in cases where a longer period of refusal, suspension, or revocation is required by law.

A termination of probation and dismissal of charges under Section 1203.4 of the Penal Code or a dismissal of charges under Section 1203.4a of the Penal Code is not a dismissal for purposes of this section.
