renewal driver's license, permit, or endorsement, may require an
applicant to submit to an examination, an investigation, or both an
examination and investigation, under section 7 of this chapter. The
bureau may cause the examination or investigation to be made

(3) the records of the bureau; or
(4) any information that has come to the attention of the bureau;
that the applicant does not apparently possess the physical, mental, or
other qualifications to operate a motor vehicle in a manner that does
not jeopardize the safety of individuals or property.
(b) Upon the conclusion of all examinations or investigations under
this section, the bureau shall take appropriate action and may:
(1) refuse to issue or reissue the driver's license, permit,
endorsement, or driving privileges;
(2) suspend or revoke the driver's license, permit, endorsement,
or driving privileges;
(3) issue restricted driving privileges subject to restrictions the
bureau considers necessary in the interest of public safety; or
(4) permit the applicant to retain or obtain the driver's license,
permit, endorsement, or driving privileges.
