New Laws In South Australia For P platers, Consequences ???

[DevilDRake]

If you got your p's before the laws came in, then you're safe anyway. If not, then it'd be hefty. It would probably be the same fine and being caught with mods on your P plates (well in vic you're not aloud anything)

okat then i have no idea what it means exactly, but its written right under conditions, which might mean you can only drive auto/or it means you can drive both, mabey yours are differnt because you have a manual license and she has only an auto licence?

there is no manual or auto licence, for cars they com in when u get truck licences.

also in sa u have 4 points on P"S and when u lose all 4 u lose yr licence, basicly do anything wrong and kiss yr licence gd bye (most offences is 3 points, and then 1 for breaching p conditions) for 6-12 months. but when this happens u can apply to the courts to get 1 point bac if u have a legit reason to have yr licence. if u live in metro areas u have about 0.00000000000000000000000000000000000001% of getting a point bac cause there is public transport, in rural, u may be lucky and get 1 bac

in n.s.w, if you pass your p's test in a auto car, you cant drive manual, and on the licence under licence conditions it says A is you passed in auto, which means you cant drive manual

My licence (as pictured above) is not bound to transmission type and i am not restricted from driving v8's or turbo's.

It's just weird that there is the 01 there under conditions, no one can explain it. May be a printing error. Oh well

I have done a bit of research on this topic as I am 21 on my P's and I MIGHT be losing my licence soonish, all depends on how court plays out. Anyway I made some phone calls to find out what happens if I lose my licence after the cut off date (4th sep) and I was told that when my licence is reissued the new laws will apply to me. However, the other day I received a letter saying that if I lose it after the date and then have it reissued the new laws will NOT apply but instead I won't be able to drive with anyone else in the car between 12 and 5am.
