do learner drivers have a curfew

Ah, learner drivers and curfews—a classic clash of youthful ambition versus parental control disguised as law. In Australia, the rules depend on the state or territory, but generally, learner drivers do face some restrictions on night-time driving. For example, in New South Wales, learners must be supervised at all times and some restrictions apply on driving between 11pm and 5am unless accompanied by a fully licensed driver. Victoria and Queensland have similar rules but specifics vary, so it’s best to check your local road authority.

Remember, these curfews or restrictions are designed to keep the road less chaotic and you less likely to be a headline. For precise details, consult your state’s transport website or ServiceCentral for updates. The rules are as tricky as parallel parking but just as important.
