Reply With QuoteI think it's 100 hours in Qld, but I could be wrong.
I'm told some people cheat and make false entries because they are too lazy to put the time into it.
I recommend taking them karting so they can test their limits without hurting anyone.

Yep. All of which means that there is a prerequisite level of intelligence for flying that is not required for driving.Originally Posted by JDNSW
What is required for driving, is an ability to read analyse and predict the actions of other drivers. If you were to record the lessons that you're giving your Grand Children, I'm pretty sure that you would find yourself instructing them in this art. That is why I think they require a greater level of instruction.

Mine is about 45 hrs into hers. And I've already been told she's going to only do 80 hrs and fake the rest... In Florida (5 times as many vehicles in 1/10 the space), there is no L's or even P's. You get full license at 16 and can drive whatever you want.

SubscriberWow, down here they check and add up the hours on the log book (takes 45 min generally) and then do a basic roadworthy of the licence test vehicle before you go on the drive test. Then it's no Disco V8's but you can drive a Volvo with a 170 HP 5cyl engine. I'll let you guess which is quicker 😄

My five boys (oldest is 8) are already asking when they can get their licence. Three in three years, then a short break till the next two. I'm already stressing about it!!

Does the log book system have any requirement to complete a defensive driving course with an approved instructor ? For me to get a licence would have been possible but without the driving classes , theoretical and practical my personal driving insurance would have been astronomical. Best guess at the time I was paying over $1000 per year . Any infringements would have to be disclosed at renewal time. The premiums then adjusted in accordance. Certainly kept hooning to a rarity.

Yet you still drove on the wrong side of the road.
If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

Kevin, I did the Queensland Transport Defensive Driving course many years ago. What a total waste of time, my FiL taught me more, he'd done a far better course in the UK, as a lorry driver.
