how many demerit points does a red p plater have

Ah, the dreaded red P-plate demerit points—Australia’s way of saying, "Slow down, rookie!" In most states, red P platers start with a limit of 4 demerit points before the authorities come knocking. Accumulate more, and you risk losing your precious provisional licence faster than you can say "learner's permit." Penalties can vary by state, so it's wise to double-check with local transport authorities or ServiceCentral.
