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:

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:

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
