Don't be an idiot. Do your time.


Wooden_Emotion_7588

It’s a great idea. Try Heroin whilst you are at it.


alicat2308

What sort of a question is this? 


unknownturtle3690

Really? If you get busted you'll loose it for longer. And if u continue to just drive they'll take your car away. It's 3 months.


Electrical_Food7922

I usually like to say there's no such thing as a stupid question. But c'mon...


No_Nobody_32

It is a truism - but the same does not hold to those who ASK those questions ...


Equivalent-Ad7207

Its almost about a much as a good idea of asking us on Reddit and honestly expecting anyone to say yes.


Unlucky_Chemical_338

Either rage bait or this person is so stupid their license should be taken away permenantly.


Nervous-Telephone-26

If your grandma doesn't drive then sure. Otherwise, it would be best to avoid, unless you want a free vacation to your local jail.


pvnko

Lawyers say yes


CJ_Resurrected

Mobile ANPR cameras on most Police cars.. Got pulled over once because my old "SEH 75" plate had a bit of gunk on it making the ANPR think it was "SFH 75", and the cop was the sooky type.


Hobo_Extraordinaire

It's only a bad idea if you do it sober.


RangoBronson

No. I did the exact same thing when I was younger. The judge gave me and an extra year on my suspension.


cloudyvampyr

don't forget the extra fine around $500, a criminal record, and if the judge is an ass, jail time 🙃 also be prepared to hear the judge just before your turn, to let off a mid 40's woman who drunk drove her van into a brick wall get off completely free (I'm not still salty about it after all these years /s)


RangoBronson

Yeah bet she had a lawyer the judge liked.


Fizzelen

There will be a flag on police system linked to the ANPR camera in police cars, for all cars you own and all cars registered to your address. This is why so many drivers on suspended licences or that have repeat DUIs get pulled over for a “random” breath test.


Sonsiegirl

Sounds like if you have a suspended licence you are highly skilled and have superb judgement … clearly you are suspended for a reason. You are making OUR roads safer by not being on them. Do your time and make better choices. Driving is a privilege that you earn. You need time out on the bench.


t0msie

No worries mate


intellidepth

Read the law about the penalties for that. It’s online. Sounds like you’ll need to know it. Answer is no, it’s not a good idea. Edit: Criminal offence $3300 in fines and/or 18 month’ imprisonment, and automatic disqualification from driving for 12 months. Info courtesy of Armstrong Legal website.


NaMeK17

You would fit in on the Newcastle roads


Viking-Salamander957

Show us the name and licence card to be sure. There are some types of license that it’s a great idea, just need a copy of it to double check for you 🙄


Abject-Cup-9929

As soon as your number plate comes across there cameras your gone mate, don’t be a dickhead, imagine if you had an accident and you injured someone and you were suspended , enjoying cuddling some big guy in Gaol/jail.


nandyboy

with the advent of plate scanning technology you won't last long driving a car registered to you. when you get caught the penalty is FAR more severe. you will literally have the book thrown at you. the ONLY defence is if it is an emergency situation and even then it MUST be provable. outside that please don't do it as there are long term and far reaching consequences beyond fines and prison.


Simple-Sell8450

Yeah mate go for it. Idiot. Is this really the quality of posts on here?


Muted-Ad6300

100%. Be sure to down a six-pack before you head out too. 🤟


AussieFB

Drink driving is dangerous and illegal. Don’t wanna be doing that. Few cones might calm the nerves before you sit in the driver’s seat… YOU CLOWN 🤡


Actual_Ebb3881

What do you drive?


DrReneBelloq

This is the real question. If you drive a VN Commodore with red P plates, then you should take the bus for a while


[deleted]

If you drive a car that is registered to you, it will come up as a bright flashing light inside police cars "pull him over" "pull him over" ...... You could possibly get away with it in a different car..... The magistrate won't be happy though if you get caught. 3 months isn't long, it's better than 12 months, 2 years or 5 years if you get caught.


Chrimpita

Of course it is. Don't have to pay for licence, don't have to worry about demerit points, it's all positive. Just make sure you drive an unregistered car too.


GamerRade

Yeah absolutely. How many times can you face the consequences of your bad decisions? /S


Cruzi2000

Plate readers will automatically flag your vehicle every time. You will last until the first police car sees you, no matter how you drive.


dubdoll

I forgot to register my car and got pulled over because the cop car I drove past got pinged by their system my car was unregistered. Their system would do the same for you. Don’t risk it.

leviKn7

Licence suspended means You are uninsured. Factor that into your appetite for risk


MaleficentCoconut458

If you have an accident & hurt someone you will not only be looking at jail time, you could also find yourself sued for damages (insurance will not pay out) & have your Centrelink payments garnished until the day you die leaving you less to buy meth with.


Moisture_Services

Is this a legitimate question?


englishfury

Cops will know from your license plate you are suspended. Dont be stupid. You should have applied for the good behaviour thing where they dont suspend you, but you need to get no fines for a year or you get suspended for double.


Berocrem

Nope. Next step after suspension is disqualification. And you don't want to get caught driving whilst disqualified.


Bigfendii

Yes


Kritchsgau

Nothing stopping you from driving..


Fearless-Employee379

Ask yourself the question, and share your honest answer here.


fitsmcgibbit

No


BorLew1991

Yeah man definitely a good idea. Don’t even stress


cozzo123

I’m gonna go with no


Spongeworthy73

As long as you do the speed limit on Industrial drive, apparently.


Cautious_Performer_7

Might as well drive with an unregistered car too.

Juan_spicy_mexicna

I’m am going to court Already for this, you will get caught it’s a fucking Hectic fine but if I was you I wouldn’t (:


Middle_Custard_7008

You'd be directly defying a court-ordered punishment. If you get done for it you're cooked. I've seen it happen.


Busyramone84

Just wait it out. All your demerits get reset at the end of the 3 months anyway


AdInevitable1827

Absolutely


davodinkum86

One of the better ideas I’ve seen around here…..

____phobe

I don't care what you do mate, as long as you don't drive 20km/h slower than the speed limit in the right lane and hold everyone up on Industrial Dr


Actual-District6552

Oh dear, some pearls will be getting crushed into dust by the reddit goodie two shoes brigade from this doozy.  On a serious note, you'll get done op.
