Frequently asked questions

Do I need to retake the highway code after a cancellation?

Yes. With a cancellation (not a mere suspension), you must retake both the theory and practical exams in full, as a first-time candidate.

What is the difference between a suspension and a cancellation?

A suspension is temporary: your right to drive is withdrawn for a set period, after which you recover your license without retaking any exam. A cancellation is permanent: you lose your license and must retake it in full to recover your right to drive.

Are psychotechnical tests required after a cancellation?

Yes, in most cases of judicial cancellation, the judge requires a medico-psychological assessment before you can resit the exams. These assessments are carried out at centres approved by the prefecture.
