Hazard perception test QLD

[Jayne89]

Hey guys,
So I got my P1 licence in December 2010, but didn't sit my hazard perception test until may 2012.
I know that your green p's need to be held for 2 years and i don't think they technically start till you have done that test, so does this mean I have extended my p's by 6 months :/ ???
Anyone had any experience with this?
Cheers

I'm kinda in the same boat

Done the test, paid for it, just haven't been bothered to update it on my licence.

Maybe hit up Main roads and find out?

Yeah I'm thinking I should just call them, but it's always such a hassle and half the time they give you the wrong info anyway lol, I am really hoping this it isn't the case though cause the vf ss has my name all over it!

Yep. The two years is based off when you change your license. I did the same. So did mates of mine. Some of the left it for over a year till they changed it.

wahhhh :'( that's crap, at least I only waited 6 months, I guess it could have been worse like in your mates case.

well just rang the department of transport to double check (was actually on hold the whole time since posting this question ha-ha) but they did confirm what was said above. I'm wondering how many p platers on their red p's know how important it is to do that test as soon as they can lol cause I sure didn't know and department of transport never even told me so bad luck for me. Anyways thanks for the help guys

So the 2 years is based off your licence? ****.

yup, what ever date you walk in to department of transport and upgrade from p1 to p2, not the date that you sat the test at home or whatever. that's when your 2 years starts
