Key legal question
Whether the administrative authority could rely on the final criminal penalty order and refuse new evidence on the driver's identity.
Extracted holding
The administrative authority was entitled to rely on the criminal findings because the appellant had reason to foresee administrative proceedings and should have raised his objections in the criminal case.
Extracted reasoning
Final criminal findings bind the licensing authority unless specific exceptions apply; here the penalty order expressly foreshadowed administrative measures, and good faith required the appellant to assert his defenses and evidence already in the criminal proceedings.
