The teen, who obtained his P-Plates less than 24 hours earlier, was found speeding and under the influence by police on their way to urgently transfer organs.
Yeah, except that in my experience, you end up with a group of teenage friends with two cars, which means a race :/
Also doubles the requirements for designated drivers, which increases the risks that someone decides "Im not that drunk".
I broke the 2 passenger limit a couple of times on my Ps, it never made sense when responsibly driving two friends to the local trainstation. I just took the P plates down :/
It's something like that and the one passenger rule is because they couldn't ban it altogether since some are going to work or coming home during those hours from what I remember.
“Disproportionate” how? Even though the word can technically be used to describe an overreaction or an underreaction, I’ve almost always seen it used in cases of overreaction. I think you’re saying that a three-month suspension seems like an underreaction, though.
I don't agree with aggressive punishments beyond reasonable but 3 months seems ludicrously low and not enough in isolation or otherwise for the offences at hand.
