Sorry if its a repost but my suspension letter comes soon which will have a duration of 6 months no driving. I was wondering how I would go about getting a 1 point probation period for the 6 months or even for the year.

Besides writing a letter and waiting as that takes too long are there any other ways?

Thanks for the help only helpful comments please

Thanks

-Dale

No actually i just get anoyed when I need quick information and i dont want people flaming and going oh you lost your license your so young your stupid your this your that.

I just wanted a straight direct answer or helpful information. No ones obliged to post if you dont have any helpful information then dont post simple.

You won't get offered probation if its the result of an automatic suspensions (30+ over?) You only get the option if ur losing your license due to accumulated points.

And....ur having a very bad run with ur license, perhaps you need to be on the track not the road.s

unless you are a full license holder, your chances are buggered or none.

The only hope at 17 is to write a sob story that you must have your license to drive your disabled mother to hospital or similar. You will need a provable sob story, but I do not rate your chances.

P.S do not try to drive once suspended or it is an automatic 2 years.

As far as I know "1 year, no mistakes" and other such "deals" only applies to full licence.

If you loose your licence on your P's then you're doing something wrong, sorry to be the burden of bad news, but thats how traffic department see's it anyway.

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
