PER CURIAM.
Appellant was convicted of two counts of manslaughter by intoxication for which he received ten years in prison and a consecutive fifteen years on probation. The evidence was sufficient to support the jury verdicts, and appellant’s contentions of legal error are unfounded. However, as one of the conditions of probation, the court purported to revoke appellant’s driver’s license for life.1 We, therefore, amend the reference to appellant’s license to constitute a condition of appellant’s probation that during its term he shall not drive a motor vehicle and a recommendation to the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles to suspend appellant’s driving privileges for such time as appropriate under the law. As so amended, the judgments and sentences are affirmed.
GRIMES, A.C.J., and SCHEB and DAN-AHY, JJ., concur. . Section 322.28(2)(f), Florida Statutes (Supp. 1982), which contemplates lifetime revocation under some circumstances, was inapplicable because the conduct which led to appellant’s conviction occurred before July 1, 1982.

Blair v. State, 554 So. 2d 1226 (Fla. 2d DCA 1990)…DCA 1989). Further, the three-year revocation exceeded the statutory two-year limit. The trial judge may order as a condition of probation that appellant not drive a motor vehicle during the term of probation [three years], see Moreland v. State, 442 So. 2d 1002 (Fla. 2d DCA 1983), if the court finds that condition to be reasonably related to the offense. See Rodriguez v. State, 378 So. 2d 7 (Fla. 2d DCA 1979).

Travis v. State, 549 So. 2d 737 (Fla. 2d DCA 1989)…lthough the suspension of Travis’ driver’s license was an appropriate penalty, the trial court invaded the province of the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, the agency authorized to impose the actual suspension. See Moreland v. State, 442 So. 2d 1002 (Fla. 2d DCA 1984). Hence, upon remand, the court should delete the suspension order and substitute a direction to the Department that it suspend Travis’ license as provided in section 322.27, Florida Statutes. We note also that the court may impose…
