please you guys have it good over there. and just to think there doing that just because they beleave mistakes happen. in pa they dont care if it was a mistake or you were trying to go fast. i think the fine for 6mph or over here in pa is like $150-160 with 2 points. 6 points = a 6 month suspension and pain in the neck insurance rates.

what my i ask is a P1 P2 and full licnence?

here at 16 yrs and I think its 9 months you are allowed to get a learners driving Lic.
For that you have to pass a written and oral and computer test
When you get you P plates you have a P1 , lic.
For this you are not allowed to go faster than 100 Km per hour
this is for the first yr
On your 2nd year and after you pass a driving test you get a P2.
Now you have less restrictons and you can drive up to 110 Km per hour.
At least I think thats the way it goes

Over in your state do you have a Learners drive Lic?
When i had a learners , I was on them for only 3 months and past a oral test only . now its alot harder to pass and get your full lic.

If you are 17 years of age or older, you are eligible to attempt the Driving Test if you have logged at least 120 hours driving time (which includes 20 hours of night driving) and have held your learner licence for at least 12 months (drivers over 25 are exempt from the 12 month tenure requirement). If you pass, you will be issued your provisional P1 licence. You can attempt the Driving Test in any type of light vehicle however you will be restricted from driving certain prohibited vehicles when a P licence is issued. For more information see the sections on P1 and P2 vehicle and passenger conditions and Learner licence for exemptions from the 120 hours log book requirements.

A P1 licence is issued for 18 months. After a total of 12 months you can attempt the Hazard Perception Test (HPT). If successful, you can proceed to the P2 licence. A P2 licence must be held for at least 24 months to progress to a full licence.

The P1 licence can be gained by a learner driver after successful completion of the Driving Test - see the learner section for information about the requirements of the learner licence.

You must be at least 17 years of age to attempt the Driving Test.

Yep this sounds right
