age to get l plates nsw

In NSW you can get your L plates at 16 years old—hurrah, independence (with supervision). You’ll need to pass the Driver Knowledge Test, do an eyesight check, prove your identity and pay the fee at Service NSW. Once licensed, display those big yellow Ls, keep your BAC at 0.00, and drive with a supervising driver who holds a full licence. Stick to learner speed limits and the road rules like your test depends on it—because it does. Nail the basics now and you’ll thank yourself when the P-plate drama arrives.
