Well with my Green Ps soon to expire I thought it would be a good time to sit for my full liscence... so I've booked myself in for 9am tomorrow morning (gotta squeeze it into 2006).

Also just spent the last hour reading all 94 pages of that hand book - pretty self explanatory stuff (apart from the emphasis on statistics). Did all the online tests and passed...

Questions:

1) Should this be sufficient preparation?

2) How much emphasis is there on the stats in the actual test?

3) Is the DQT a lot harder than say the Greens?

4) What's the best option after you pass; 1yr or 3yrs :O

Thanks + wish me luck for tomorrow :P

Yes, unfortunately for us younger generation the RTA has turned the liscencing system into some money laundering scam... there's a total of 4 tests now (each with associated costs) before you can call yourself a "liscenced driver"

Thanks, will get the 3yr if I pass >_<

from memory the final full licence test is not that hard. they do the usual trick of asking a few misleading questions, but you are allowed a couple of mistakes so dont sweat it too much. just keep reading that book right up to the time you go in for the test. >_<

yeah, if you have good driving history they will let you get the 5 year gold licence. get it if it's available to you as: 1. it's cheaper, and 2. you'll get to have the same picture for 5 years. so when your 30 you'll have a pic of yourself at 25. though that may be a negative and just make you feel old.

You'd need a crystal clean history then right?

I've only ever been picked up once and that was for a stop sign - you think this will be "good" enough?

You don't have to be perfect to get a gold license. I got mine when I had 4 demerits.

You just have to hold a full license 5 years without a suspension.

Ok stanny boy, I am the guru on the test. If you want, give me a buzz with any questions, and i'll explain it all to you. I've pmed you my number.

But basically, the knowledge test isn't your usual road rules. They exmaine you on statistics. e.g. being a bogan makes you x times more likely to crash. Drinking while getting a blow job is x times more likely to crash.

for the other part, it's scenario based where you touch the screen. There is a catch. you have to touch the screen more than once, unlike the green p test which you only have to touch once. there is a special technique to this one.

for more info, give us a buzz.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
