Penalty For Underage Driving

[nice 28]

Just wanted to know what the penalty for underage driving.

As in what would be the penalty if someone under the age of 16 (without learners) was caught driving?

Would this change if someone was in the car?

I'm in no way considering doing this, but I am just curious as to what it was because i have heard a few stories of people driving under the age of 16.

firstly you get rapped, then you get rapped again then later on you get rapped again. Then you get told you can't get your learners for a long long time.

Wrong,

If you have your L's you wont get in much trouble. Just a $200 fine and a slap on the wrist.

But without L's im not sure, maybe even less or more.

a lad i know was banned from getting his Ps for a year after he turned 18

FARK!!

I'd hate for that to happen.....

Is it still possible for young guns to take a car out on a track and have a spin.

What about things like motorkhanas and all that??

No learners and the fine will be 537 for Unlicensed driving Penalty notice only.( Code2107 RSA 18 am reading the code book) If you have learners and no full licencesed driver in car it's a court appearance most likely less fine but will affect getting licence. Getting penalty notice only should not affect getting licence/permit.

Are you retarded? He clearley said if you don't have your L's.

I used to go out before I had my L's with a friend and drive round uni's monash clayton and bundoora latrobe are both good. I used to go there weekend evenings so not many other cars around, good for a bit of not so on the street practice.

Join SAU VIC (assuming you are from VIC) get your CAMS licence, then participate in our track/motokahna/drag/drift/driver training days.

Minimum age for a CAMS junior licence is 14 - so providing you're allowed to stay up past 8.30, you'd be able to compete in low-speed karting and autocross events.

ahh sweet.

how often are these events held??

would a cheap sh!tter be adequate for these events??

i was thinking maybe a cheap gemini with a 5speed in it would be a blast

yeh its about $600 if you get caught. i knew someone that got done like 6 times.. (from like 16-18y.o) now i dont tihnk he can get his L's till hes 21 or something.

[Nismo_God]

well i know for fact that if you drive with only ur L's you only get a $70 fine for driving unaccompanied. i know this because in my stupid youth i did this and had an accident....someone turned into me and even tho it was there fault i still copped it and had to have the incident investigated by the insurance company, nothing happened with regards to me getting my license later on.

My neighbour got caught driving when he was 16 (he got caught speeding doing 75 in 60 zone)

He was not able to get his P's until 21. He turned 21 3 days ago. He is booked in at vicroads to go for gis licence this week
