p plate rules wa

Ah, the P plate rules in Western Australia — because apparently, driving like a maniac isn't frowned upon enough. If you’re rocking your red P plates (P1), you’re restricted to a maximum speed of 90 km/h, and you can't drive between 12 am and 5 am unless supervised. After 12 months, you graduate to green P plates (P2), where the speed limit bumps up to 100 km/h, and night driving restrictions ease up. Oh, and no alcohol is allowed if you’re on your Ps, because apparently, that’s still a thing. These rules are in place to keep you and everyone else alive until you’re ready to join the ranks of fully licensed drivers. For the nitty-gritty and any updates, check the official WA Department of Transport documentation.
