The 10 steps to getting your licence
• not drive a probationary prohibited vehicle (unless you
are driving the vehicle during working hours at the request
of your employer or have been granted a written exemption
by VicRoads)
• drive only a vehicle fitted with an automatic transmission
if you passed a drive test in a vehicle fitted with an
automatic transmission.
Probationary prohibited vehicles (PPV)
When you have a P1 or P2 licence, you cannot
drive a probationary prohibited vehicle.
A vehicle is considered 'probationary prohibited'
if it has:
• a power to mass ratio of greater than 130 kilowatts
per tonne, or
• an engine that has been modified to increase
performance (other than a modification made
by the manufacturer in the course of the vehicle's
manufacture), or
• been declared a PPV by a notice published in
the Victorian Government Gazette.
You can apply to be exempted from this restriction
if it would cause you undue hardship.
