violator engages in conduct which is likely to endanger the safety of
persons and property.

upon compliance with laws and ordinances relating to the operation of
motor vehicles, in whichever jurisdiction the vehicle is operated.

administrative rules and regulations relating to the operation of
motor vehicles by their drivers in each of the jurisdictions where
such drivers operate motor vehicles.

continuance or issuance of any license by reason of which the
licensee is authorized or permitted to operate a motor vehicle in any
of the party states.
