Sec 46.2-322(A) of the Virginia Motor Vehicle Code describes the circumstances under which an individual's operator's license may be suspended "if the Department has good cause to believe that a driver is incapacitated and therefore unable to drive a motor vehicle safely, after written notice of at least 15 days to the person, it may require him to submit to an examination to determine his fitness to drive a motor vehicle."
