(B) If the applicant fails the training program and has never been licensed in Missouri, the person's driving privilege shall be denied for one (1) year.
(C) If the applicant passes the training program and the driver training instructor's recommendations are acceptable to the director, another skills test shall be authorized for the applicant to take.
(5) Any decision of the director shall be given to the applicant in writing by registered mail. Any person who is aggrieved by the decision of the director may appeal to the circuit court in the county of residence as prescribed in section 302.311, RSMo.
