Lost licence and want to move to AUS

[dyls2991]

I'm planning on going to Australia for long term however i have recently been disqualified on demerit points.

I however have not handed over my licence card yet, if i take this to Australia will i be disqualified there or does the NZ system not talk to Australia system?

Thank you

Dylan

You aren't disqualified if you haven't been served the disqualification notice by veda/baycorp, or the police. If you have been served, then you are disqualified.

NZTA sell driver licence details to Veda, Vodaphone, 2 degrees etc etc, so you would be brave to assume they wont sell them to an ozzie that asks.

How does one lose their license on a 125?
I am impressed.






I suppose you could have done it in a car but meh.

Pretty sure that the disqual starts before that, not sure if it is when they are trying to serve you and you are conveniently not home though.
Have a look on the NZTA page for Disqual's, it will tell you there.

Just move over to Aussie and claim ignorance if questioned.

100 km's in a 50 km zone would get instant loss ... but about five, "20 km's over the limit" tickets would do it. Within a two year period ... easy as to do.

Some people are slow learners (if you excuse the pun) ...

And risk a "Driving while disqualified" charge over there ... great advice ...

You drive legally until served.

Of course if you are served by a policeman at a random stop 1000 km from home, it may be quite inconvenient.

correct. until you have been served a notice, you are not disqualified. the disqualification starts from the day you receive the notice.
Sometimes you can say 'I dont know where the card is' and not hand it over, be aware though, that doing this is now an offence - if you have been served the notice, but have retained your actual licence card, you are going to get stung if you get caught with it.

Id suggest ringing the australian licensing authority anonymously and discussing options with them.

a demerit loss is only three months though anyway

just been down that track.
iam in ozz now.... in order to get a QLD licence,, you have to sign a declartion the you are not cancelled in any other country...
you could bullshit then,, i spose..
but if you had an accident... or bad offence.. the would probably check
i didnt do it.. just keep walking.

How hard is it to chuck an L plate on after the first time

Thank you for your consideration in leaving the country and raising the average IQ of both at the same time.
