Planning A Trip Down To Melbourne

[ecl]

heya

few mates of mine are planning a trip down to melb in the next week or so but i have a few questions on getting there

we are planning to drive down and 2 of my mates are p platers ( 1 with s15 and 1 with wrx). will there be any problems driving their cars in melbourne seeing they are p platers and there is a power restriction law there? or is that law only for vic p platers?

we all have nsw licenses

thanks

The power restriction law is a condition on the licence. Your licence is NSW, so it doesn't have that condition.

If those cars are turbo they're not supposed to be driving them are they? I thought P platers can't driver turbo in NSW?

Depending on the laws in NSW, they'll apply here in Vic too as far as I know.

cheers

my mates all had their p plates before the law came in so they could all drive any car they want here in nsw

just wasnt sure about in victoria

i will call rta/vic roads tomorrow to make sure

My mate got caught speeding with no points left on his license in NSW (he has a vic license). What he did there didnt affect him in vic. Its wierd how these things work.

that's scewed when did you laws change.

any way as far as i know what you do in another state does affect you licence i.e. you speed you get a speeding fine and points taken off.

best do as you said ring RTA/VIC roads and ask them.

also dont ack like idots and you wont attract the cops

He must have been very very lucky as Brentton is right, they do transfer back to Vic from interstate, just take a bit longer.

I know of a couple of things that have worked but getting caught/booked for speeding isnt one of them.
