As dictated by Section 257.320 of the Michigan Vehicle Code, this form initiates a reexamination process that scrutinizes a driver's fitness to be on the road. Encouraging thorough and accurate reporting, the form requires detailed information about the driver in question and an explicit explanation of why an evaluation is deemed necessary. Additionally, it emphasizes the need for complete requester information, including a mandatory signature to process the request, underscoring the form's integrity and confidentiality aspects. The OC-88's structured format and the procedural rigor it represents underscore Michigan's commitment to public safety through responsible driver assessment.
