(Low Threat / Low Intimacy) License No. ______________ Violations ______________ Accidents ______________ The Department of Motor Vehicles is reviewing the records of all drivers in danger of being classified as negligent operators in accordance with Section 12810 of the California Vehicle Code. This code permits the Department to utilize its discretionary authority in the interest of public safety. During the past year you were convicted of several violations of the traffic laws which place you in danger of being legally classified as a negligent operator.
