Does anyone know the ruling on if you lose your bike licence (demerits) whether you lose you car licence too?:![]()
Only advice would be greatly received![]()

your different classes on your licence are endorsements, you only have one license so if its lost its lost
When they come round to collect it, if they haven't already, tell them you left it at work and will 'post' it soon![]()

yeah, problem is, you'll still be suspended, and if you ARE stopped, and show your licence, or are riding and forget to take it, and are stopped at a checkpoint, or are in a crash and try to make an insurance claim.......you get the picture.Originally Posted by boomer

Yip, as previously stated, licence is suspended for all classes and if you plan to produce your licence to a cop while disqualified, if you get caught, that's another charge with the same penalties as Driving Whilst Suspended / Disqualified. (max 3 months in prison, max $4500 fine, 6 months disqualification - added on).Originally Posted by TL Rider

A prison term for riding on a disqualified license??? How often has this happened in your professional experience??Originally Posted by Bykey Cop
Happens more than you would think. For a 3rd of subsequent offence, the max is 2 years in the slammer.Originally Posted by justsomeguy
Prison is obviously reserved for the clowns who don't learn - you usually need a few convictions to get that, but for a lot of people, they keep doing it and every time, they have another 6 months or more disqualification added and they keep getting caught. Eventually they do end up inside.

sounds like someones had a brush with the law ? mmmm!Originally Posted by TL Rider
had the nice letter in the mail saying how close you are, or is it past that stage ?
If you were in Queensland you'd lose your speed boat licence too.Originally Posted by TL Rider
You get served a letter at which time you are subsequently suspended from driving. Whether or not you hand over your physical licence at the time has no effect on the actual suspension.Originally Posted by boomer
isn't it or wan't it the case you'd be issued with a letter once you'd got over the 70 demerit mark with all the blah blah saying what the circumstances would be etcOriginally Posted by spudchucka
Pretty sure you still get a warning letter when you hit 50 demerits but that one is posted. The letter for suspending your licence is physically served on you.Originally Posted by T.W.R
and whether you receive the warning letter at 50 is irrelevant as to being subsequently suspended.
and you will probably do a short lag for 3rd subsequent - especially if it is your principle form of offending, as you're obviously not learning....
If you lose your licence because of demerit points and are suspended from driving, when your suspension ends are your demerit points at zero?
Or do the demerit points stay and drop off like normal after two years?
Om nom nom.
