Can Learners Get Out Of Speeding Tickets? Do They Get Like 1 Chance?


Recommended Posts

Hey, im a learner went for a drive to lorn and i got done in 60 zone doing 65.

do learners get a chance.. because they are learning and unexpierence?

thanks, cant really find much on the net.

Nick. :)

lol nah dont think they get special consideration for speeding. no one does.

otherwise everyone would try to claim it if they were speeding. + just encourages people to speed more since they know they could get out of it.

If anything i think you will have the L's suspended?

Fark been a while and i can't remember exactly.

Best off to ring VicRoads mate for 100% assurance of what happens.

Good point llama. I'm pretty sure learner drivers have the same points as P platers. A friend got a fine on his L plates and managed to plead leniancy by swearing he wouldn't speed again. Though if you ask me, learner speeds and instructor should be copping the fine...

from memory if there is a learner plate in the photo the L plater and the supervising driver BOTH get fines...

dont quote me but this is how i have believe it works..

unlucky.

Well, my folks are paying it because they are they driver really, they should be watching the speed for me and advising me not to speed, thats what they said, im not gunna argue lol... but i do believe learners get a chance. ah well ill call vicraods tomorrow :(

Dont call Vicroads.. Just see what happens first.

If you say it was only 5 km over it may get canned....wait

Lol, I thought it was your job to watch your own speed, as you ARE the driver? I think if you are old enough to drive, you should be old enough to take the responsibility of your actions :(

I know this, but thats what my parents said. lol

Then that's not a great attitude for them to have. You're driving, you're responsible for speeding.

+1 That being said, I see parents leaving stupid L plates on their cars ALL the time because they either couldn't be bothered to take it off or just forgot...you SURE you were driving at the time?

    • Hi all,   long time listener, first time caller   i was wondering if anyone can help me identify a transistor on the climate control unit board that decided to fry itself   I've circled it in the attached photo   any help would be appreciated
    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
