Any article links? 100 is very easy to get in 6 months its probably the 18 years old thing that will get to people.
Well despite it not being that easy to rack of 100 hours, I drove from bankstown to campbelltown and back like once a week on top of normal driving in my 6 months and still only racked up 70 hours...... the proposal is to include an increase in the minmum time to 12 months!
When i went for my L's (all those years ago) this rumour was circulating. Its a very anoying urban myth.
Well I think its a myth NOW, but I believe in 2004 it was considered and well publicised.... and out of it came the restrictions on powerful vehicles, no increase in times.
And personally an extra 50 hours and 6 months isnt going to do jack to stop young people crashing..... young ppl crash becuase of distractions from friends and driving at stupid speeds to show off - both of which aernt going to be helped by more time. That sought of thing is more usefull if you have retard drivers on the road who cant control their vehciles, and although some p-platers would suit this description, so would many other drivers... namely older ones, from my experience at least.
i heard you have to have yuor L plated till yuor 30.
