Résumé Omnilex

The Government Council held that a new driving test is required under Art. 14(3) SVG whenever doubts arise as to a driver's suitability, especially as to driving skill and knowledge of traffic rules. Such doubts may rest on numerous prior offenses or on a single serious violation from which deficient driving knowledge can be inferred. The challenged order to undergo a new examination was therefore upheld.

Regeste Omnilex

Art. 14 Abs. 3 SVG; ordering of a new driving test when fitness to drive is doubtful. A new examination is to be ordered whenever serious doubts exist regarding the driver's aptitude, particularly driving skill and knowledge of traffic rules. Such doubts may be grounded either in a pattern of numerous prior offenses or in a single grave infringement, provided it permits the inference of insufficient driving competence. The authority need not await further incidents where the existing record already justifies the conclusion that the driver may lack the requisite knowledge (consid. unspecified).

Art. 14 Abs. 3 SVG.

Eine neue Führerprüfung ist anzuordnen, wenn Bedenken hinsichtlich der Eignung des Führers bestehen, namentlich in bezug auf Fahrfertigkeit und Kenntnis der Verkehrsregeln. Die Bedenken können sich entweder auf zahlreiche Vorstrafen oder aber nur auf eine einzelne schwere Widerhandlung stützen, woraus der Schluss auf mangelnde Fahrkenntnisse zu ziehen wäre.
