The restrictions are in place to reduce accidents in the hands of less-experienced drivers. Obviously you can still cause an accident in a slow car, but it is very likely that an accident in a slower car will usually be at a slower speed and cause less damage.
JDM-EGG: If you're on your P-plates and you got them after the restrictions were first put in place, then yes it includes you, the restrictions are not a new thing.
