    i heard new rules are being inforced now? 120 min hours..
    a mate of mine got his Ps before july 2005, he drives a xr8 ute.. and got caught for speeding by a camera. does this mean he cant drive the v8 anymore?
    or do you actually have to loose your licence first??

    depends what state he's from
    in nsw: if he got his p's before 11th july 2005, then he's unrestricted(i.e. can drive performance vehicles)
    anyone who gets their p's after that date is restricted from driving v8's, turbocharged or supercharged vehicles

    In NSW:
    L's - 16yrs old, computer test (must log 50 hours, having it for atleast one year)
    red P's - min. 17y.o, driving test ( min. one year)
    green P's - min 18y.o, computer test ( min. two years)
