How about:

 

Disqualification for offences

42. —(1) A court before which a person is convicted of any offence in connection with the driving of a motor vehicle may, in any case except where otherwise expressly provided by this Act and shall, where so required by this Act, order him to be disqualified from holding or obtaining a driving licence for life or for such period as the court may think fit.

 

(2) Where a person (referred to in this section as the offender), is convicted of an offence under section 160, 304, 304A, 323, 324, 325, 326, 341, 342, 350, 352, 426 or 427 of the Penal Code (Cap. 224) and —

 

(a) at the time of the commission of the offence the offender was the driver or was in charge of a motor vehicle on a road or other public place;

 

(b) the person against whom the offence was committed was the driver of another vehicle on the road or public place, a passenger in that other vehicle or a pedestrian on the road or public place;

 

© the court convicting the offender of the offence is satisfied that the commission of the offence arose from or was connected with a dispute between the offender and that other person over the use of the road or public place; and

 

(d) having regard to the circumstances under which the offence was committed and the behaviour of the offender, the court is of the opinion that it is undesirable for the offender to continue to be allowed to drive a motor vehicle,

 

the court may, in addition to imposing on the offender the punishment provided for such offence, make an order disqualifying him from holding or obtaining a driving licence for life or for such period as the court may think fit.

[1/99]

 

(3) If the court thinks fit, any disqualification imposed under this section may be limited to the driving of a motor vehicle of the same class or description as the motor vehicle in relation to which the offence was committed.

 

(4) A person who, by virtue of an order of a court, is disqualified from holding or obtaining a driving licence may appeal against the order in the same manner as against a conviction, and the court may if it thinks fit, pending the appeal, suspend the operation of the order.

 

Or maybe:

 

Power of Deputy Commissioner of Police to suspend driving licence

45. —(1) Notwithstanding anything in this Act, the Deputy Commissioner of Police may suspend a driving licence of a person for a period not exceeding 3 years if the person’s record (as kept by the Deputy Commissioner of Police) as a driver of motor vehicles or his conduct or habits as such driver establishes that it would not be in the interests of public safety for him to hold a valid driving licence or that such person is not competent to drive a motor vehicle.

[7/90]

 

(2) For the purpose of establishing that it would not be in the interests of public safety for a person to hold a valid driving licence or that such person is not competent to drive a motor vehicle, the Minister may make rules establishing a system of awarding points against a person for the commission of an offence under this Act.

 

(3) The rules made under subsection (2) shall specify the maximum number of points to be awarded against a person before it may be established that it would not be in the interests of public safety for him to hold a valid driving licence or that such person is not competent to drive a motor vehicle.

 

(4) The power conferred upon the Deputy Commissioner of Police by this section to suspend the driving licence of a person may be exercised at such time after the maximum number of points, referred to in subsection (3), has been awarded against such person as the Deputy Commissioner of Police thinks fit.

 

(5) Where the points awarded against a person under the rules made under subsection (2) reach 50% of the maximum number at which the Deputy Commissioner of Police may suspend the driving licence of such person under this section, the Deputy Commissioner of Police shall give notice thereof in writing to the person.

 

(6) Where a person is disqualified by an order of a court from holding or obtaining a driving licence for such period of time as may be specified in the order, every point awarded against him under the rules made under subsection (2) shall thereupon be cancelled.

 

(7) Where a holder of a valid driving licence commits on a single occasion more than one offence under this Act, points shall be awarded against him only for the offence committed by him and in respect of which the largest number of points may be awarded against a person.

 

(8) For the purposes of this section, a person shall be deemed to have committed an offence under this Act if he pays the prescribed penalty for that offence under section 132.

 

(9) In addition to the power conferred on the Deputy Commissioner of Police by subsection (1), if a person who holds a driving licence —

 

(a) fails to comply with any process of court issued against him in respect of any offence committed by him under this Act or any written law specified in Part II of the First Schedule; or

 

(b) is arrested under a warrant of court in connection with an offence under this Act or any written law specified in Part II of the First Schedule and the offence has not been tried and determined by the court,

 

the Deputy Commissioner of Police may, as he thinks fit, suspend the driving licence held by that person until he is satisfied that that person has complied with the process of court referred to in paragraph (a) or until the offence referred to in paragraph (b) has been tried and determined by the court, as the case may be.

[mandevour]
