"This first phase of the reforms will reinforce good driving practices and compliance with road rules by rewarding offence-free driving during the provisional period and imposing additional penalties for illegal and unsafe driving behaviour,” Mr Sturges said.
“Provisional drivers who progress through the system without breaking the road rules will not only gain their full licence but will also receive a refund of their provisional licence fees.
“By contrast, novice drivers who disobey driving laws - such as driving at excessive speed or driving while affected by alcohol - will find themselves penalised. "
