The Road Traffic Act (CHAPTER 276) of Singapore outlines provisions regarding the physical fitness of applicants for driving licences:

1. **Declaration Requirement:** Applicants must declare in writing whether they suffer from any prescribed disease or physical disability that may endanger public safety while driving a motor vehicle.

2. **Refusal of Licence:** If an applicant declares such a condition, the Deputy Commissioner of Police will refuse to grant the driving licence.

3. **Exception for Invalid Carriages:** A driving licence limited to driving an invalid carriage may be granted if the applicant is deemed fit for such carriage.

4. **Fitness Test Option:** Applicants can request to undergo a test to determine their fitness or ability to drive a motor vehicle of a specified class or description.

5. **Result of Fitness Test:** If the applicant passes the prescribed test and is not otherwise disqualified, the licence will not be refused solely due to the declared condition, except if the test proves fitness only for driving specific vehicle types.

6. **Revocation of Licence:** If the Deputy Commissioner of Police believes a licence holder suffers from a condition likely to endanger public safety, they may revoke the licence after an inquiry.

7. **Notice and Surrender:** The licence holder must surrender the licence upon receiving notice of revocation.

8. **Retest Option:** Except for prescribed diseases and disabilities, licence holders can request a fitness test. Passing this test allows the licence to be reinstated or returned if already revoked.
