The Superintendent is given discretion in determining which evidence he or she will consider in making the decision. A suspension cannot be quashed solely on the basis that the Superintendent did not consider certain relevant evidence (''Motor Vehicle Act'' s 93(3)). The ''Motor Vehicle Act'' appears to permit the Superintendent to limit the period during which a license is suspended to certain times of the day or days of the week (''Motor Vehicle Act'' s 25(12)(a)). An appeal of the Superintendent’s decision to uphold the driving prohibition must be made in the BC Supreme Court and occur within 30 days of the Decision (''Motor Vehicle Act'' s 94(1)).
