Licence gone :-(

**ArcherWC** · 17th January 2007, 10:31

Well, was stopped today for a "licence check" and as i already have 175 demerit points, it was bye bye mr licence :-(

What is the fastest way to get a temp one for work without breaking the bank?

Any help is appreciated

You have a automatic stand down of 28 days....... then after that you can apply for a 'work license'. It is expensive thou I think around $1000 to $1500 to get one.

Contact speedie as he has done this a while ago...... and he can give you all the ins and outs of what is involved.

So are you now pushbiking or catching the bus?

PS: It was only a matter of time before you got sprung......

lucky you kept it as long as you did if had 175...

How can you get 175 demerit points anyway?

**Grahameeboy** · 17th January 2007, 10:55

You can do it yourself and just pay Court Fee of $150

They take months to catch up with you and finally take your licence, in which time you can accumulate plenty more over the 100.

I seem to recall you pm's me a while back but not sure if I replied.

Feel free to e-mail me - Grahameeboy@hotmail.com and I think I saved my application which whilst for my Daughter shows you the lay out and all you have to do is re-hash.
