hey guys, to cut a long story short i was done last week for something i didn't do but i'm unsure if i'm going to bother fighting it in court so i'm weighing up my options. Story is that i had 1point left on my license for things that i was stupid enough to do... Then last week they tried to tell me i was doing 107 in a 70 and they suspended my license on the spot and it was 5demerit points... Which means i'm minus 4 at the moment. I do get 3 points back towards the end of this month for an offence 2 years ago. So when i am eligible to get my license back i should be minus 1 point only. However i WAS able to get my full license on the 10.10.09 so what i want to know is do they give your demerit points back after your suspension? Because if they don't then how am i supposed to get my license back if i'm minus 1 point. Keep in mind i was supposed to get my fulls on the 10.10.09 and can i go for them after my 3 month suspension. I was an idiot on my red p's but i did curb my bad driving habits, funny how when you're being good that's when you get done lol

I'm a little confused but i think you're asking if you can stretch it out to get your ponts back before you get the next demerit points, or able to go for your full licence?

Some points to remember.

- Demerit points stay on your licence for 3yrs before they go back.

- You wont be able to go for your fulls untill any fines are paid/settled.

not sure if that answers your question.

Again, I suggest you seek legal advice.

ok haha obviously i didn't explain it properly. Basically i was on 1 point and lost 5 so currently i'm minus 4 points, but i get 3 back before i am due to get my license meaning i will be minus 1 point when i am allowed to get my license back. They obviously can't give me back my license so does this mean it will continue to be suspended until my other points come back onto my license?

Pretty sure that at the end of a suspension (due to loss of all points, not something like speeding on Ps) then you get all the points back.

And by pretty sure I mean, it happened to me... the final straw was no P plates :P

Had no license for 3 months, got it back, had all 6 points, got fulls, have all 12 points. Still have all 12 points to this day :(

Does the suspension extend the time you have to be on your P's though?

ie if you had it suspended for 3 months u have to be on your p's for 3 months longer then if you hadnt been suspended?

Correct me if i'm wrong, but with the new speeding laws, isnt 30-40 over automatic 3 month suspension...Then you have the automatic 3 month suspension for running out of points. So thats a total of 6 months suspended licence. Then you get your full P2 points back. Then you go for your full licence after waiting the week or so for the correct amount of time to pass between the time you got done, and the original 10/10/09 date. Also you cannot go for your full licence on the 10/10/09 if you are currently suspended.

That was the case when i got done on my p's and then ran out of points.

My best advice would be to look on the rta website but i'm sure the above is correct.

    • Nah its a server spammer thing  Although, now that I manually approve all the accounts I can probably loosen up some of the restrictions.  
    • Thread bump, again! Although, no bad news this time. Posting for the sake of possible root cause. Basically, I rebuilt it (mostly stock), installed Haltech + sensors, had it running fine on new ECU.  Still not really understanding why it cracked pistons last time. Got to tuners, and while checking timing, noticed +-10deg of timing scatter while revving. Changed CAS, and it was rock solid. While not definitive, can't imagine seeing 20+ psi with that amount of scatter would be a good thing. Also glad I found something.   Bit more of a run down; Carried out a stock rebuild, a set of stock pistons, out of a spare bottom end. Everything stock apart from head studs and oil restrictors. (so I can pretend I didn't let the Nissan out, ha.) Armed with the measuring gear and FSM, set about doing overhaul. Oil restrictors as per oil control thread for a RB25, stock oil pump, drifting. Head drain/vent from rear of head, to passenger side of sump above oil level. Two dash 10 vent lines from drivers side of sump (unused atm) Hi octane style cam cover breather kit Splash covers over last 2 cam caps. Both breather lines from cam covers to vented to atmosphere catch can, not plumbed back into sump (wanted to see what it was actually breathing). Got it run in (did about a 1000km) no to low boost scenario, As I had questions over old ECU setup. Installed haltech +sensors for flex Retune on E85 (finding CAS Issue along the way), made 300rwkw at 20psi, out of wastegate. Did a drift day the next day (yes, it was a big weekend!) and was checking catch can throughout the day, ZERO blowby. I mean nothing. Lines from cam covers are not even wet. Done a bunch of street driving, spirited and catch can is still dry. Early days I guess, but pretty happy so far. Also now run 10w60, up from the 10w40 that I used to run. Oil pressure is significantly better, especially when hot (as you would expect)      
    • Thanks buddy. I thought it was a server storage thing. 🤣
    • Perfect! Thanks for this, both look like great options!
