5  Surrender of current driver licence
 (1) If an applicant for a driver licence, or a variation of a driver licence, holds a current Australian driver licence, or a current licence to drive a motor vehicle issued in another country, the applicant must surrender that licence to the driver licensing authority before the issue of a driver licence or amended driver licence.
 (2) Despite clause (1), the driver licensing authority may exempt a person from surrendering a licence issued in another country if the authority is satisfied that it would be unreasonable, in the circumstances, to require that licence to be surrendered.
