A medical can be denied because a person has a criminal

Does the AME make this call, or someone in OKC? And what would be a
disqualifying set of circumstances?




I think it's OKC. I know someone who had a suspension because of a
DWI. I also had a temporary medical suspension about 18 years ago
when I had points on my license. I had to send them a copy of my
driving record, they "evaluated it" and saw I wasn't a menace to
society and re-instated my medical privileges. I was ticked off then
and still disagee with this concept as none of what is above has
anything to do with being physically and medically sound.
