        (b)     the person was disqualified from holding or obtaining a driver licence for the offence; and

        (c)     the Magistrates Court made an order authorising the road transport authority to issue a restricted licence to the person for the period of disqualification; and

        (d)     the person—

              (i)     did not apply for, or was not issued with, a restricted licence; and

              (ii)     is eligible to apply for, or be issued with, a probationary licence because the person is no longer disqualified from holding or obtaining a probationary driver licence; and
