1Opinion of the Court
Clarke, Justice.
The Department of Public Safety revoked Shepard’s driver’s license on the ground that he was a habitual violator as defined by § 68B-308 (b)(2). This section allows for revocation of a license if the driver has accumulated at least 15 moving violations in a five-year period. After pursuing an unsuccessful administrative hearing, Shepard filed a de novo appeal in the superior court as provided by § 68B-315. He contended that he was not a habitual violator as defined by the Code and challenged the constitutionality of Code Ann. § 68B-308, the habitual violator statute.
