privilege of a person shall require that the driver license of the

person be surrendered to Service Oklahoma. When the statutory

requirements for reinstatement are met in accordance with Oklahoma

Statutes, the person shall apply for a new driver license from

Service Oklahoma; provided Service Oklahoma has determined that the

licensee is a person not prohibited from holding a driver license

under Section 6-103 of this title, and has successfully completed

the customary written, physical and driving tests, if such tests are

required. Identification of the person shall be verified through

the driver license digital file of Service Oklahoma.

denying a driver license or suspending or revoking the driving

privilege of a person, shall forward a copy of the order to the

licensee pursuant to the provisions of Section 2-116 of this title

and request the immediate return of the driver license to Service

Oklahoma. Failure to comply with the order of Service Oklahoma

shall constitute a misdemeanor and, upon conviction, the person

shall be punished by a fine of not less than Fifty Dollars ($50.00)

nor more than One Hundred Dollars ($100.00).

C. Any peace officer of this state may seize the license of any

person who, according to Service Oklahoma records, is under

suspension, cancellation, revocation or denial under the provisions

of this title. The officer shall immediately forward the license to

Service Oklahoma.

D. No person shall have a property interest in the physical

driver license issued pursuant to the laws of this state. It shall

be the duty of every person whose driving privilege has been

suspended, canceled or revoked to immediately surrender his or her

driver license upon the request of any peace officer or

representative of Service Oklahoma.
