Sec.14-37a-9. Violation of terms and condition of special operator's permit

(a) If a person commits a violation as enumerated in section 14-37a-8 of the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies, such special operator's permit shall be subject to revocation by the department.

(b) If a police officer has reasonable grounds to believe that a person to whom a special operator's permit has been issued is not abiding by the terms and conditions of the special operator's permit, the police officer may make a written report of the circumstances, on a form or in a format determined by the commissioner, take possession of the permit and shall return the permit to the commissioner together with the written report. The commissioner may, upon receipt of such report and after providing the operator with an opportunity for a hearing, revoke the permit and impose a civil penalty of up to five hundred dollars ($500.00).

(c) If an additional suspension of a person's motor vehicle operator's license or nonresident operating privilege is imposed during the time that a special operator's permit is effective, such permit shall be revoked upon the effective date of the additional suspension and shall become null and void. The special operator's permit holder shall return said permit to the commissioner upon the effective date of such revocation. Should the additional suspension arise from the same incident as the suspension for which the original special operator's permit was issued, the commissioner may stay such revocation and extend the expiration date of the original special operator's permit, or may issue a special operator's permit for such additional suspension.
