If you get your license suspended, it's suspended mate. No ifs or buts, they won't care if you've got a shit-machine on the way.

All the above...
No offense, should've thought of that before doing what you did to get suspended.

And if a cop pulls you over, believe it or not, you'll be allowed to drive as it's classified an 'Emergency'
But i highly doubt you'll be able to drive if your license is suspended. Do the 3 months mate, almost finished mine.
3 months is peanuts, should try 6months!

getting done for p plates pisses me off, honestly they take like 2 points for not having one or both and 300 dollar fine here in NSW.
Too strict, should be like 80 bucks and no points

Just drive a vehicle not registered under your name.
Make sure its not a typical P plater vehicle. Have P plates at all times, should have no problems.
I drove 6 months suspended on a custom gold turbo integra without getting down. Just pure luck I guess, but it was registered under my mummas name. 0 Infringements, cops probably thought it was a hektik mum driving the car.
Quiet bad advice I know, but if you have to drive...you have to drive.

^ true, my old dc2 which my cousin used to borrow was getting pulled over everyday cause i had a suspended licence. They have the scanners in the car which pulls up plates
with suspensions,disqualifications, expired rego/licence etc. But i wouldnt ever risk it , all it takes is one RBT site on the side of the road or anywhere when they actually
take the time to check your licence to cop 2X the original time

I Victoria, we actually place our P Plates inside the car, which tends to avoid them "flying off"...
On the emergency driving thing, if he hits another vehicle, is he still insured during this emergency drive...?

nsw p plate law are the biggest load of crap. cant have them inside so everyone who just walks past your car can just take them off, one speeding offence even 4kmh over is a 3 month suspension for reds :s

if someone rips it off tell the cops. usually they aint dickheads and let u off..
if u say, yeah u forgot to put em on, obv they gunna fine you
otherwise just keep ur p plates on, during my whole 3 years of p plates, i never ONCE got fined for not having em on/flying off. they were always cable tied to my car. stop being pansies and making excuses, its a easy way for them to dick you, but theres also a easy way not to get dicked.
if u know ur gunna get dicked, dont u want to take precautions that you dont?? sounds pretty obvious? OP got done twice... thats just stupid. if they fly off, get em on the car properly, if someone nicks em, put em in ur car before u leave. if ur just ignorant then dont cry when u get fined.
at the end, why so many people get fined for it, is because, YOUR LAZY.
stop making fukin excuses

i cable tied my rear p plate, had spares in the car, some faggot ripped it off and i got pulled over i still copped the fine even though i explained i
had spares and its clearly been ripped off. I guess you just gotta double check the car before driving off to see if its still intact

depends on what you did i guess but im pretty sure u can apply for either a work permit and if ur a first time offender you can go on probation (1 point) but thats in QLD
Mate of mine was on 1point for a year, around the 9month mark he got done for displaying the wrong p plate and lost his license.

Oh no! A three month suspension *sadface*
In SA a suspension on your P's is 6 months long.

when I lived in NSW the p plate laws there are so BS!
any speed offense and you lose your license for 3 months.
atleast in QLD we can have our p plates inside. even tho we only have 4 points if we do a minor speeding offence (up to 20kph) you still have 1 point left with only a $200 fine (for 20kph max)
