Passenger Restriction: Have You Got One? Need Help!


Recommended Posts

I Recently got my license back from VicRoads and they have nicely given me a passenger restriction.

Now my question is, what happens if i break this passenger restriction. I asked the lady on the phone but she seemed to just

spill out crap like she didn't know what she was talking about and she didn't look it up.

She stated to me "3 Points and a Big Fine" and i've heard its only a fine.

So does anyone know what the real story is? as i don't feel like sitting on the phone to VicRoads for another 30 minutes

It'll be demirts i reckon (without actually checking)

everything virtually is a demirt

no p plate

speeding

etc etc. its all become so trivial that something like that would incur demirts, if not now, when the laws do thier change later this year (IIRC).

Probably best to ring up again tomorrow or something.

Or just ask to speak to someone else :nyaanyaa:

Yep, That's what i was thinking so i'm not sure ive browsed through there site but to not avail. I'll call up again tomorrow, the only thing that was making me think different is the police officer that told me its only a fine?

Any light anyone would like to shed on the matter would be greatly appreciated.

i duno how long its been goin but if u get a speeding fine within the first year of havin your ps u get passenger restrictions. Its for 1 year and only 1 passenger you are allowed to have. You have to go to vicroads and get a new licence and when its finished go bak and they issue you with another 1 that your restrictions are taking off

I had one.

Solution is as follows....

Buy a Catterham Super 7. It only has two seats and would spank the vast majority of the Skylines on this site.... And it's P-Plate legal :)

I heard you are allowed to carry more than one passanger if one of the passengers is an open license driver - however if none of the passengers are over 25 and fully licensed then your limit is 1.

Get used to it, they are going to make it an overall rule for ALL P Platers in the future - i personally think its for the better,

less passengers == less peer pressure == less stupid behaviour.

yep got 1 of these restrictions myself. i got it the first time i was done for speeding(license suspended for 1month).

i don't know about the consequences but like anything i think it all depends on the officer. i was once on my way to soccer and got pulled over for a "random check" i was carrying 4 passengers (with the restriction on my license), 3 dudes in the back eventhough there's only 2 seatbelts in the back. he looked around the car then let us go.

:no:

oh no......... that means im gonna get 1 of those restrictions soon...... once i find out whats happenin with my licence anyway...

is the restriction down to u can have 1 passenger or none at all? or depends what they think ?

not sure what you mean....?

basically if you have the restriction you're not allowed 2 carry more than 1 passenger at any time. it's actually pretty handy for when you don't wanna give certain people a lift.

mine finishes in august :no:

    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.
