Section 263:6 Examination.
Before a license is granted to any person, the applicant, if not previously licensed to drive a motor vehicle in this state, shall pass such examination as to the person's qualifications as the director may prescribe. Such examination may include an examination for visual acuity as prescribed by the director. All license examinations shall be conducted by department of safety personnel. No license shall be issued until the director is satisfied that the applicant is a proper person to receive it. No physical defect of an applicant shall prohibit the applicant from receiving a license unless it can be shown by common experience that such defect results in an incapacity to safely drive a motor vehicle, except as provided in RSA 263:13.
