Speeding fines

Recommended Posts

Got a question. I'm on a 457 visa and have racked up 7 points now in 6 months. I know that I don't need to get a WA licence til 3 months after I get residency, however if I pick up another 5 points in the next couple of years can they ban me while I'm still driving on my uk license - and what will happen when I apply for my WA licence.

 

Hope someone can help!!

The states and territories as as yet unconnected. Get your license first in any other state and then transfer it to wa and get a clean license for your trouble. I've done it.

My OH went to get his WA license the other day and they wouldnt give him one because we are on a 457, they said that you only have to get an aussie license when you get PR. They said we had to have a reason why we wanted it, like for work etc and would have to provide evidence to that effect.

 

Hi There

 

we are on a 457 and got our WA licence no problem about 2 weeks ago and we haveonly been here since November.

BUSTED:wacko:..........Thought I'd post it here. 87km in an 80km. On Rocko road just after the traffic lights near naval base. I drive up and down there at least 10 times a day and Mr Anon busted me with a camera stashed in the bushes. I've done really well since I got here and have struggled to drive to the slower speed limits here especially on the dual carriage type roads. Fair cop (geddit) and I'll pay my fine.

 

As Joe Strummer sang......I fought the law and the law won!!!
