red p plate rules victoria

Ah, the infamous red P plates in Victoria—your first taste of freedom with a side of rules stricter than your grandma's curfew. If you're rocking red Ps, you're on your probationary licence, and that means:

• Speed limit capped at 90 km/h
• Zero blood alcohol content
• No using mobile phones, even hands-free
• Passenger restrictions apply if you're under 21 (usually no more than one passenger between 11pm and 5am)
• Display red P plates front and rear at all times

These rules are designed to keep you and everyone else alive while you learn the ropes. For the nitty-gritty, do check the official VicRoads documentation or drop by ServiceCentral for community tips.
