Newly Proposed P-Plater Laws

11 March 2010 - 09:08 PM

I don't know if anyone had read the paper today but on the front page they had a article on how the Government has asked a Accident Investigation company to investigate whether performance vehicles (V8's, cars that were Turbocharged or Supercharged) were the common/main factors in P-Plater crashes. Once the investigation has been completed later this year and the company has submitted it's findings, the Government will then decide whether to bring out a new legislation that would ultimately ban novice drivers from driving anything that had a power to weight ratio greater then 135kw/Tonne. Which means novice drivers will not be able to drive most newer V8's and varies cars that have been modded out and thus exceed this limit. According to this article a similar legislation was trial from (correct me if I'am wrong) 1999 to 2007 in NSW. however funny enough though the the article also stated that 1 in 12 crashes involved a P-Plater.

To be honest I think it's not quite fair on P-Plater's
