36 High performance vehicle restrictions

(cf 2008 Reg cl 32)

(1) In addition to any other conditions that may be attached to a provisional licence, such a licence (other than a motorcycle licence) is subject to the condition that the holder must not drive a high performance vehicle.

(2) For the purposes of this clause, a high performance vehicle is a vehicle—

(a) that has a power to mass ratio greater than 130 kilowatts per tonne, or

(b) that has had any modification made to the vehicle’s engine listed for the time being in any order in force under clause 83 of the Road Transport (Vehicle Registration) Regulation 2017, or

(c) that is listed for the time being in TfNSW’s publication Novice Driver—High Performance Vehicle Restrictions as a high performance vehicle for the purposes of this clause.

(3) If, as a result of an amendment to this clause, a vehicle that was not previously classified as a high performance vehicle becomes a high performance vehicle, subclause (1) does not apply to a provisional licence holder driving that vehicle if the licence holder was a provisional licence holder immediately before the commencement of the amendment and continues to hold that provisional licence.

(4) For the purposes of this clause, the power to mass ratio of a vehicle is to be calculated in the manner determined by Transport for NSW and notified on its website.

(5) A vehicle is not a high performance vehicle for the purposes of this clause if it is listed for the time being in TfNSW’s publication Novice Driver—High Performance Vehicle Restrictions as a vehicle that is not a high performance vehicle.

(6) TfNSW’s publication Novice Driver—High Performance Vehicle Restrictions is to be published on TfNSW’s website.
