FFS I was released into society with a unrestricted license and promptly bought a HIII 500 triple when I was 17 and am still around to tell the tale.

Too much tut tutting going on here over some rule made by a public servant who really wanted to do civic planning but got MV instead.

Anyone know offhand - if you convert your Vic P licence, still restricted, to NSW and you are over 30, does that mean you get an unrestricted NSW licence?

I ask because I may be moving there.

bike or car?

if car it depends on how long you've had your P's for, if over 24(isnt it?) months then you may go jump onto your green P's.

If for bike you'd be immediately elegible to go to your fulls.

e.g. i had my car p's when i lived in canberra, had them 18 months or so, moved to sydney when they still had 1 year car p's and walked out of the RTA with a "blacks" license.

which reminds me, i need to go to the RTA tomorrow or Sat and get my license renewed as it expires on Saturday. Which is gonna be a prick as im doing nightshift tonight and tomorrow night!!!

I'd be insulted if someone called me mature...

Don't worry Dave, that will never happen

in qld u have p's for 3 years then the opens for 12 months and can then get ur open bike licence straight up thu q ride - thats how i did it any way

now i know alot more about bikes and other riders i think it is way to easy - on my course guys were talking of going out buying new 1000's and it would be interesting to know how they got on ...
