Passenger Restriction: Have You Got One? Need Help!


Recommended Posts

I Recently got my license back from VicRoads and they have nicely given me a passenger restriction.

Now my question is, what happens if i break this passenger restriction. I asked the lady on the phone but she seemed to just

spill out crap like she didn't know what she was talking about and she didn't look it up.

She stated to me "3 Points and a Big Fine" and i've heard its only a fine.

So does anyone know what the real story is? as i don't feel like sitting on the phone to VicRoads for another 30 minutes

It'll be demirts i reckon (without actually checking)

everything virtually is a demirt

no p plate

speeding

etc etc. its all become so trivial that something like that would incur demirts, if not now, when the laws do thier change later this year (IIRC).

Probably best to ring up again tomorrow or something.

Or just ask to speak to someone else :nyaanyaa:

Yep, That's what i was thinking so i'm not sure ive browsed through there site but to not avail. I'll call up again tomorrow, the only thing that was making me think different is the police officer that told me its only a fine?

Any light anyone would like to shed on the matter would be greatly appreciated.

i duno how long its been goin but if u get a speeding fine within the first year of havin your ps u get passenger restrictions. Its for 1 year and only 1 passenger you are allowed to have. You have to go to vicroads and get a new licence and when its finished go bak and they issue you with another 1 that your restrictions are taking off

I had one.

Solution is as follows....

Buy a Catterham Super 7. It only has two seats and would spank the vast majority of the Skylines on this site.... And it's P-Plate legal :)

I heard you are allowed to carry more than one passanger if one of the passengers is an open license driver - however if none of the passengers are over 25 and fully licensed then your limit is 1.

Get used to it, they are going to make it an overall rule for ALL P Platers in the future - i personally think its for the better,

less passengers == less peer pressure == less stupid behaviour.

yep got 1 of these restrictions myself. i got it the first time i was done for speeding(license suspended for 1month).

i don't know about the consequences but like anything i think it all depends on the officer. i was once on my way to soccer and got pulled over for a "random check" i was carrying 4 passengers (with the restriction on my license), 3 dudes in the back eventhough there's only 2 seatbelts in the back. he looked around the car then let us go.

:no:

oh no......... that means im gonna get 1 of those restrictions soon...... once i find out whats happenin with my licence anyway...

is the restriction down to u can have 1 passenger or none at all? or depends what they think ?

not sure what you mean....?

basically if you have the restriction you're not allowed 2 carry more than 1 passenger at any time. it's actually pretty handy for when you don't wanna give certain people a lift.

mine finishes in august :no:

    • As an ex-skyline owner Going off how these things are now "modern classics", I would keep the twins and just "refresh" bits that are required for reliable power and have a car you can take out for a cruise whenever you get the itch As a idiot who cannot leave things alone Going deep into the "rabbit hole" is a easy thing to do, as previously mentioned, once you start it becomes a slippery slope, wirh lots of supporting mods, and possibly rebuilds, and unless you have a bottomless pit of funds, the car can spend most of its life sitting in the garage,  broken, waiting for parts, or building more funds For a classic like a R32 GTR Basically, a reliable OEM+ refresh, that isn't a broken garage queen, is alot better than a car that you build, then break, then fix, then break again And it isn't just the engine you need to worry about, these beasties are getting on in age, and all parts are getting, and have got, expensive, the days of picking up cheap replacement engines and other driveline parts are well and truly over The funds not spent on going a single with quality parts, and with all the other other bits required to make it happen, could be spent on refreshing alot of other parts A wise man once said "If you cannot afford 2 GTR's, you cannot afford 1", I also believe he said this about 20 years ago when you could pick up a clean R32 GTR up for around $20k My advice for a R32 GTR (the one and only true Godzilla in my mind) is to think holistically about the whole car, the body, the power train, the suspension, the brakes, and the driveline SAU is a wealth of knowledge with decades of Skyline experience,  from stock, to OEM+, to modified to varying degrees, to full on or weekend or dedicated racecars, as well as full on money pits that rarely leave their garage Treat the old girl nice and give her what she deserves, you are a lucky man to own such a classic car  
    • For that price you could buy the hypergear turbo (big fan as I run one) and the Haltech ECU..
    • +1 for the Elite 2500. Get some new knock sensors while you are at it (pretty cheap), look up the TAARKS Nissan knock sensor kit. You may also want to get new coils (R35gtr) while your at it (assuming your on stock ones), as they are a liability. Mine started right up and idled fine on the base map. Also go MAP over MAF, as said above, Haltech make this super simple right out the box. Another fanboy of DBW here, Outsider Garage from your neck of the woods make some nice conversion gear for the R33 (that’s where I got some of my gear from).
