you are supposed to get demerit points sent accross for interstate fines but the system is a shambles and it virtually never ever happens

but they will transfer all existing demerits when you transfer your license

and you have 3 months to transfer.

When I bought my stag from SA, the guy had previously bought it from WA and hadn't transfered it into SA, so it was still on WA plates in SA... I made the guy in SA put his address down and sign the transfer papers (no brainer).. When I went in to transfer it, the lady was shocked the car hadn't been transfered out of the orignal owners name first, then into the guy in SA... she said the guy in SA will recieve a fairly large fine... oh well, his bad..

You can keep your car registered in NSW aslong as you have a dwelling there and have family or friends living there so you can get the rego papers sent over when its due... but why would you want to do that? Here in WA you don't have Road worthy cert. to worry about

I got done in Sydney when I was living there (driving WA state plate car with WA license). The fine I recieved should have knocked me off my WA license, but nothing ever happened besides paying the hefty speeding fine. The cop asked if I was on holiday or living in Sydney, and I said I was living here and just arrived. He then told me I had a few months to change it over, but meh...6 months later I came back to Perth anyway and didn't get pulled over by cops during that time. If you get pulled over, say you're just on holiday.

The 3 months thing is just a preference thing they say, coz otherwise you won't be losing your license from speeding etc.

Got a mate here who has been on SA plates for years, never gets done by multinovas or pulled over by cops to ask about his plates etc.

I'm pretty sure the 3 months is how long your 3rd party is valid for in another state...
