   11         (1) Notwithstanding s. 322.28, upon the conviction of a
   12  person 18 years of age or older for possession or sale of,

   21  direct the department to issue a license for driving privilege
   22  restricted to business or employment purposes only, as defined
   23  by s. 322.271, if the person is otherwise qualified for such a

   37  issuance of such person’s driver license or driving privilege
   38  for a period of 6 months 1 year after the date the person was
   39  convicted or until the person is evaluated for and, if deemed
   40  necessary by the evaluating agency, completes a drug treatment
   41  and rehabilitation program approved or regulated by the
   42  Department of Children and Families. However, the court may, in
   43  its sound discretion, direct the department to issue a license
   44  for driving privilege restricted to business or employment
   45  purposes only, as defined by s. 322.271, if the person is
   46  otherwise qualified for such a license. A driver whose license

   58  suspension or revocation for any reason, the court shall direct
   59  the department to extend the period of such suspension or
   60  revocation by an additional period of 6 months 1 year or until
   61  the person is evaluated for and, if deemed necessary by the
   62  evaluating agency, completes a drug treatment and rehabilitation
   63  program approved or regulated by the Department of Children and
   64  Families. However, the court may, in its sound discretion,
   65  direct the department to issue a license for driving privilege
   66  restricted to business or employment purposes only, as defined
   67  by s. 322.271, if the person is otherwise qualified for such a
   68  license. A driver whose license or driving privilege has been
   69  suspended or revoked under this section or s. 322.056 may, upon
   70  the expiration of 6 months, petition the department for
   71  restoration of the driving privilege on a restricted or
   72  unrestricted basis depending on the length of suspension or

   82  privilege for a period of 6 months 1 year after the date that he
   83  or she would otherwise have become eligible or until he or she
