PranK Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 I reckon, in NSW at least, you'd have to be seriously unlucky to get picked up on that. This forum says a few points and a fine. I couldnt find anything official.

GTofuS-T Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 NSW licences don't denote manual or auto do they? Or is it in their database?

MrFijiGold Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Unless rules have changed past few months. Red P's have it written at the back. Green P's are unrestricted. Can drive either regardless of transmission of test car.

GTofuS-T Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Ahh fair enough... I forgot the P's reference... I just know in QLD my wife had only Auto licence (Full), but when transferred to NSW there's no mention of that anymore Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/456193-for-provisional-license-or-fulls-question-topic-i-want-to-ask/#findComment-7527327 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can drive either regardless of transmission of test car. this is my understanding of how it works currently as well, they didn't have green Ps when I got my licence and were only restricted to auto for your Ps (if you got your licence in an auto) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/456193-for-provisional-license-or-fulls-question-topic-i-want-to-ask/#findComment-7527328 Share on other sites More sharing options...
