Im thinking of heading over to Qld soon and wondering what the deal is with me driving a car over there? (on my WA P plates)

A mate said i can borrow his car, so:
Would i have to display p plates?
If so would i have to follow local p plate laws etc?
and would i display local P's or WA ones? or none at all?

sorry if this sounds confusing but any help would be awesome

I'll clear this up before any misinformed people get in here.

You drive to YOUR license conditions. If in your state P platers dont have to display P plates you dont. If you do, you display YOUR p pates, not QLD ones. You still have to follow their road laws, but it is covered by your license first.

You will not have to follow THEIR p plate laws.

yep , STEALTHY is correct, you follow the license restrictions of W.A

if you can drive a v8 on ur P's in W.A you will be able to in QLD.

Though you still might have trouble if you come across an uninformed copper

Maybe go to the DPI here in WA and get whatever paperwork you might need for situations like what have been said already.

Better to coever yourself now rather than have to spend the rest of your holidays trying to explain yourself whilst over there.

The 6 Ps come to mind here:

Prior Preparation Prevents Piss Poor Performance.

Always make sure you are well prepared for wherever it is you are going.
