Drivers who were issued a probationary licence prior to 1 July 2007 may drive a vehicle if it is not a high powered vehicle as defined by either definition. If a vehicle is defined as high powered under one definition but not the other, it may be driven.Definition of a high powered vehicle (prior to 1 July 2007) a power to mass ratio which exceeds 125 kilowatts per tonne; or an engine capacity which exceeds 3.5 litres per tonne of the unladen mass (tare) of the motor vehicle Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/63978-f6-insurance-on-ps/page/3/#findComment-967179 Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradles024 Donating Members 1,145 Member For: 15y 5m 12d Gender: Male Posted 31/12/09 05:09 AM Author Share Posted 31/12/09 05:09 AM Oh and in relation to your link.The definition of a probationary prohibited vehicle changed on 1 July 2007. Drivers who obtained a probationary licence prior to 1 July 2007 can drive a vehicle, providing it is not prohibited as defined by both definitions below. Defined by BOTH definitions. Although this is some sort of a grey area, I have had many cops see me driving my phoon and havent been pulled over once, twice they followed me for about 10 minutes then just turned off. I honestly do believe I'm right, but if someone else can prove me wrong I would like to know, as I'm driving mine atm.
