After complying with the provisions of Section 750.07, every applicant shall be examined by the Police Division as to the applicant's knowledge of the City and the traffic regulations governing the operation of motor vehicles. He or she shall demonstrate his or her ability to drive a motor vehicle if so requested. The applicant shall produce a valid driver's license.
The applicant, in each instance, shall be examined as to his or her criminal record, if any, and especially as to whether or not he or she has at any time been convicted of a felony. If, upon checking the record of any applicant for an original license or for the renewal of a driver's license, the Police Division finds that the applicant has been released from a penal institution after serving a sentence on conviction of homicide, robbery, rape, burglary, arson or any sex charges within five years prior to his or her application, or has been convicted and placed on probation by a court of law for any of the above-mentioned crimes within five years immediately prior to his or her application, or has been convicted of sodomy or sexual offenses against a minor child, the Police Division shall refer its findings to the Mayor, and it shall be mandatory to deny such original application or to revoke such renewal application.
