(a) An application for reinstatement of a person permanently suspended or disqualified under Section 13500 may be made at any time, and the applicant may, in the commissioner’s discretion, be afforded a hearing. However, the suspension or disqualification shall continue unless and until the applicant has been reinstated by the commissioner for good cause shown.
(b) Any person suspended under Section 13501 shall be reinstated by the commissioner, upon appropriate application, if all the grounds for application of the provisions of Section 13501 are subsequently removed by a reversal of the conviction or termination of the suspension or revocation. An application for reinstatement on any other grounds by any person suspended under Section 13501 may be filed at any time and the applicant shall be afforded an opportunity for a hearing in the matter. However, the suspension shall continue unless and until the applicant has been reinstated by the commissioner for good cause shown.
