green p plate rules

Ah, the green P plates—the rite of passage for newly minted Aussie drivers. In most states, green P plate drivers must adhere to certain restrictions designed to keep them safe and, frankly, less annoying on the roads. Key rules often include speed limits capped at 90 km/h, zero blood alcohol content, and restrictions on the number of young passengers during night hours to curb risky behaviour.

These rules vary from state to state, so it's wise to check your local transport authority's official guidelines. And don't think you can outsmart the system; breaking these rules can lead to fines, demerit points, or even losing your licence. For the nitty-gritty, Tradingpost and CarShowroom sometimes have handy summaries, but the government sites are your best bet.
