Sec. 6. (a) The bureau, before issuing an initial or a renewal driver's license, permit, or endorsement, may require an applicant to submit to an examination, an investigation, or both an examination and investigation, under section 7 of this chapter. The bureau may cause the examination or investigation to be made whenever it appears from:
(1) the face of the application;
(2) the apparent physical or mental condition of the applicant;
(3) the records of the bureau; or
(4) any information that has come to the attention of the bureau;
that the applicant does not apparently possess the physical, mental, or other qualifications to operate a motor vehicle in a manner that does not jeopardize the safety of individuals or property.
(b) Upon the conclusion of all examinations or investigations under this section, the bureau shall take appropriate action and may:
(1) refuse to issue or reissue the driver's license, permit, endorsement, or driving privileges;
(2) suspend or revoke the driver's license, permit, endorsement, or driving privileges;
(3) issue restricted driving privileges subject to restrictions the bureau considers necessary in the interest of public safety; or
