88 Court may disqualify youth from holding driving licence
The Court may, in addition to any other order it may make if a youth is found guilty of an offence, make an order disqualifying the youth from holding a licence to drive a motor vehicle:
as from a day or time specified in the order; and
for a period specified in the order or until further order.
The Court may make the order if satisfied that, having regard to all the facts and circumstances before it, the youth is not a fit and proper person to hold such a licence.
The Court may make the order if the charge is proved, whether or not a conviction is recorded.
The order has the same force and effect as an order under the
Traffic Act 1987.
The Court may, at any time on application by or on behalf of the youth disqualified under the order, vary or revoke the order if the
Court is satisfied it is just and expedient to do so.
This section is in addition to any powers of a court under the
Traffic Act 1987 or any other Act to make an order disqualifying a person from holding a licence to drive a motor vehicle.
