Nsw Speeding Fine Questions

[Liz]

in for the free beer

[d00dz]

Question is will they take the points away from the Ps or the Full Liscence....

Is this what you mean...

1) Go sit Full Liscence

2) Go pay fine

3) They take points away from Full Liscence

4) Green Ps not even considered

Thanks for your help!

Yep

The points stay, they stay for 3 years I think.

I recommend that she get her full licence then pay the fines, if she looses her licence on greens she wont be able to drive turbo cars as she will be in the new law?

I got a speeding fine comming home from the SAU XMAS cruise. 3points.

At the time I was on greens. And that week it was double demerits. I didnt pay the fine, kepted on delaying it. was on the 3rd letter.

Then I got my full licence and the day I got it I paided the fine, and now I have 3 demerits on my fulls.

If she gets the licence first then pays all 12 points worth of fines she will still end up suspended though.

Thanks Victor... I'll let her know!

d0p3y I don't think you quite understand the situation here... she only has 6 points to worry about. So if she is granted her Full Liscence, she'll have 6 points taken off - which leaves her another 6 to play with

Thanks

Yep thats right..

Green P's have 7 points, so if she gets them taken off now, she will only have 1, which kinda sux! And if she does and looses her licence (when still on P) that will suck.

Get her fulls - 11points, then pay fines, she will have 5 points left. which is better than having 1 when on Greens.

I WIN I GET BEER!

OK you get a beer on Sunday when I see you at NBP!

yeh thats how i understand it. you dont get the points taken away till you pay the fine and they get taken away from the licence that you curently have when you pay up.

so yeh, get full licence, pay fine, and then she will still be able to drive and not lose her licence. provided that the other 2 fines dont equal to more then 6 more demerit points.

haha i just noticed this has already been said.. stupid lazy me for not reading everything

aww what? free beer!? damn missed out.. ah well ill live .. drink jimbeam anyway lol

[satanic]

Hey Stan..

If i'm right:

The two other fines were each 3 points... the Corolla is registered in her mum's name so her mum copped one at 3pts and she copped the other at 3points.

I'm guessing she's already taken the 3 points on her green p's license..

than when she gets the new one - it either a) carries them over or b) resets to 12 points..

so potentially she has 3 or 6 points left..

Hope she sorts it out - i've got 3 gone for going through a school zone too fast.. not good at all..

hehe.. thats what i was trying to say! lucky her mum took 3, or she could potentially be sitting on 0

LOL parents are good for one thing Copping your speeding fines ROFL!

I'm at work and about to go so I haven't read the thread but here goes..

To answer your questions: The points are taken the day you pay your fine (i.e. the day your money is received).

Next.. my 2c..

a. Your gf is a tard for not noticing signs, that's just silly so I hope she's pretty

b. Pay the fine of the offence that carries the most possible points without going over the number of demerit points she has on her license. In this case if any of them are 2 points pay that one. If not move to next point.

c. Ignore the first letter of warning of the remaining fines. In the meantime she needs to do what she can to get her full license. If she starts to run out of time, just elect to have the matter heard in court. This will take another month or two to get a date. If she hasn't received her full license by then she needs to write to the court clerk to reschedule the date, cite something important like family difficulties or weddings (I cited a HSC exam at the time) and they will reschedule it for you.. That'll be another month or 2.

d. Now that she has a full license and a couple of outstanding fines, either go to court (because of the court election) and get her to wear a suit etc and make sure she cries and looks scared. Will probably get the same thing as before, pay an extra $64 court fee and get her points taken from her full license.

Then she has to behave.

PM me if you need more info or this doesn't make sense and I'll give you my phone number.

Good luck!

I would pay the 3 point fine on her P's and fill out the court election on the 6 pointer.

Wait for about 2 months, then get her full license and either go to court with a good lawyer, go to court and plead stupidity or pay the fine and she should still have 6 points on her full license.

I would pad the payment of the fines out. She could also do the opposite and pay the 6 pointer and have 1 point on the Green P's and then delay the 3 pointer.

Either way, I think she can work the system to maintain her license.

This is not true. Points are 'carried over' from the green Ps to silver licence. I'll explain:

You have 7 points on green Ps. She copped her first 3 pointer. She now has 4.

The difference between Green Ps and Full licence is 5 points.

So 5 points gets added onto the licence when you get your full licence. she now has 9.

Minus the 6 points only leaves 3 points.

PS: she's very lucky that her mum copped one for her. Not many mums out there would.

PPS: The reason why I used inverted commas, is because you don't officially have points to be taken away on Green Ps. As said above, you get points when you do an offence. That is just a technical blah blah stupid way to look at it. Reminds me of what my teacher said in high school - the HSC is an exercise at giving marks. Regardless, give or take away, the outcome is the same.

Best of luck.
