    Default loss of license (tow ball covering rego plate)

    before you all start getting into me it was not for speeding or hooning etc.
    i was pulled over for RBT when the cop said my tow ball covered my plate and issued me a fine plus 3 demerit points. now i only have 2 points and i am a p-plater but i am just curious to how long i will lose my license for etc
    thanks in advance

    3 months in Vic (well it was last year anyway)
    Or you have the option to have a good behaviour bond for 12 months, but face at least a 6 month suspension if you step one foot out of line for that time

    I read that 1st post to mean he only had 2 points left before the tow ball thing.
    If you haven't done anything else wrong, and hadn't lost any points until now, you will still have 2 points left and won't lose your license at all.
    Otherwise....yeah bad luck
