Well, they brought it upon themselves, or at least, a disproportionate number of them did. I have no sympathy at all for them. Life's tough. These rules are actually designed to help save some of them from being wiped out by idiotic actions committed by inexperienced drivers.
the p platers that now have the rules, are stuck with it because of previous p platers. it takes a while to put into place laws such as that. i am a p plater, and i dont have the passenger restriction rules.. but i think it varys.. it is a great idea if we are talking about a car load of tools egging on the driver to , "RIP A SCHKID REHHHH" but it is annoying for the p platers that actually NEED to drive others around or are sensiable.
i know what it is like to dive a car load of tools around, and if i had the passenger restriction, id love it half the time because u wouldn't have idiots messing up ur interior. haha.
but its only for a year isnt it?
i think it is good, get more experiance on the road without the added distractions of roudy passengers.. and less chance of killing ur mates. :beer chug:
