Vehicle and Traffic (Driver Licensing and Vehicle Registration) Regulations 2021

For the purposes of calculating, for this Division, the period for which a person has held an Australian driver licence –

the Registrar must exclude any period for which – the person has held the licence as a learner licence; or the person has been disqualified from driving by an Australian court or by the operation of an automatic statutory penalty; or the licence has been suspended; and if the person has held a licence to drive a motor vehicle in an external territory or a foreign country, the Registrar may take into account all, or any part of, the period as if the licence had been an Australian driver licence.
