learner driver rules

Ah, the sacred scrolls of the learner driver—Australia's rite of passage before unleashing chaos on the roads. Learners must hold their L plates and be supervised by a fully licensed driver at all times. They must not drive on freeways in some states, and their speed is often restricted to keep these fledgling pilots safe. The blood alcohol limit is a strict zero, because nothing says responsibility like sober driving. Hours of supervised driving vary by state, usually around 120 hours, including some at night. Consult your local transport authority for the precise laws in your state, because ignorance is not a defence, mate.
