Gecko, comparing someone who is on GDB to a drink driver is a bit excessive, i copped the good driving behavior bond for being pulled over for 14 over on the M1, hardly a menace to society but fair enough broke the law pay the fine, then I didn't happen to have my wallet (licence) with me (was on my way to my mates to get it) another 2 points. A years worth of not being able to drive myself to work, sure ****ed off my parents. So are you saying by me not having my wallet with me and being caught low level speeding (1km off, surely he could have cut me a break?) I am an extremely dangerous high risk driver who should be taken off the road in the same category as a drink driver or someone who rips skids through a crowded street?
At least is seems a little bit more reasonable in Vic. Last edited by GS608; 13-07-2010 at 09:47 AM. |

So they've been making laws and the road toll is rising so they are looking at making more laws to stop it?
The fact is the young drivers who kill themselves are already speeding or drunk etc (already breaking the law) so introducing new laws for young drivers isn't going to do much to stop news headlines from happening I am a P-plater and can I just say the passenger restrictions is one of the worst laws - the amount of times I've left mates to cab home after I was caught dropping off friends who have been drinking is ridiculous and I'm sick of apologising to people. Also the fine for that was $350 which is worse than having alcohol in your blood when your a P-plater ($320) - go figure. The answer is in education and safety improvements to the road and cars, not knee-jerk laws. My two cents

I really hope that none of you who have posted in this thread believe a curfew in any form is a solution. Lets look back in time shall we?

I agree with most of what you have said GeckoGT (second time ever!) but what you seem to be forgetting is that in Qld a Provisional License holder is restricted from driving between 11pm and 5am for the first year of having a P license, regardless of previous offenses (or lack thereof) on their L plates.
