Good question Bem.
If the senior did not pass the vision test, the California Department of Motor Vehicles will give a supplemental driving performance evaluation to check if the individual can compensate for the vision condition. The license may be revoke once the result shows that the driver is unsafe to drive. The senior driver may also request for a hearing after the notice of revocation.
Since your father lost his driver’s license, you can get a copy by filling out a form with the DMV. You will be able to check if his license has been suspended or revoked. If you think that your father has been driving illegally in the state of California, you may a write a letter regarding all the information to the driver Safety Office.
His policy may still be in effect if the insurance company didn’t notice that he has an invalid license. If your father gets caught driving with an invalid license, then he will be cited for the conviction and the vehicle may be towed or impounded for 30 days.
Goodluck!
