Using A Wa License In Vic?

[R33Matt]

Hey

So my mate wants to buy my R33 Skyline Gts-t. He has a WA license and is on his P Plates. He is over in Vic at the moment becasue he joined the army. I heard Vic has laws about people with P plates cant drive turbo cars? So i was wondering, if he has a WA license and is over in Vic, can he drive a Skyline?

Any help would be great! lol

I have no idea

From what I've heard, since he's got a WA license, the VIC rules doesn't apply to him, regarding driving a turbo.

pretty sure if his living full time here that within 3months he has to change his licence over to Vic? could be wrong though

He is in defence, he doesnt need to change it.

Tell him to talk to some people in "the know" that have been around for a while in defence, they will explain the loop hole to your mate.

However, he cannot drive a turbo as i do believe you are bound by the states law (same as speeding and other road rules)

I could be wrong, so tell him to call VicRoads on that part.

Thanks for the quick replys

Ill get him to call Vic Roads. Would be cool if he could, but im guessing Vic rules will stop him, lol

I would argue that the car you can drive is related to the level of licence that you hold, not to the road rules.

Every driver - L, P, full licence - is required to drive within the speed limits. That's the effect of the road rules. In Victoria (among others), only P-platers are banned from driving "high performance vehicles"; even Ls can drive a Skyline or other high performance vehicle. So, if WA doesn't have a power restriction like Vic has, then a driver with a WA licence, even if P-plater, can drive a "high performance vehicle" in states where the locals are restricted.
