Had red P's since july and have only driven by myself ONCE cuz my parents are nervous safety freaks and think i will kill myself even though i got 98/100. They covered it with the excuse 'we want u to be focused on ur HSC and not going out evry night partying'.

So the end of HSC is a double whammy for me, not only can i party nonstop but i'll get the freedom to drive anywhere and finally escape the confines of my house! WOOO!
That's a bummer you haven't gone out alone much. I love driving by my self :) Soon you will be able to drive- just for fun! :)

I'm on red Ps
Driving on your own is awesome
No parent screaming into your ear
Feels great!
My parents started sleeping in the car after the 20th hour.

It felt like I already had my P's and everything before I got them... except I just couldn't leave without my mummy :p

Um, actually, since you're on your red Ps, the speed limit was 90 for you. I'm pretty sure that the fact that you're on your Ps changes the rules about confiscating your license on the spot, too.

your limit is 90, so you were 48 over the limit. but i don't think he should've confiscated your license on the spot.. that's a bit stupid as it leaves you stranded where ever you are.

im 18 in nov but no greens until jan next year....zzzzzzz :sleep:

You were going 38 over. I was in the car when my friend was caught doin 65ks over, and he got confiscated on the spot..But I'm not sure about 38 over, I know 45+ is on the spot confiscation.

the poster wrote " i was doin 128 on a 100 km speed limit (30 ks nd over coz )"

28 (over 100) + 10 (because its 90 for red's) = 38... he said he was done for 30ks and over... so it makes total sense to me... or am I missing something?
