Haha in new Zealand we only have l plates, nothing for restricted or full :) sounds hard everywhere else

[possiblywierd]

Does 'p' plates in Australia mean a learner, or some one who has already passed?

[firedingo99365]

In Australia you start as 'L' or Learner, you then progress to your red 'P' plates or Provisional plates, then on to your green 'P' plates and then finally you become a full licensed driver.

Sorry I wasn't clear in the description!

[possiblywierd]

ah get it! thankyou. In England we only have the red 'L' plates and then green 'p' plates.

[firedingo99365]

I'm still trying to get off my Ls and on to my Ps. It's so hard. Sounds much easier in England.

i guess it is - i started to learn to drive in november and passed my test in june, which meant i was allowed to go straight to green 'l' plates - which aren't even necessary, i could legally drive without them, it just helps other drivers to be a bit patient with me. - do you need to take another test once on red 'l' plates to go to green 'l' plates?

[firedingo99365]

Yes. You take one to get your Ls, another to go to your red Ps, another to go to your green Ps and a final test to get your full license.
