Licence responsibilities and penaltiesStandalone practice
Under the rules through October 18, 2026, how does a Superintendent’s driving prohibition for an unsafe driving record affect a new driver’s GLP time?
Correct answer: Learner time pauses, and the novice's qualifying period restarts
Why
For this type of prohibition, learner experience stops accumulating until the prohibition is served and the licence reinstated. A novice must then build a new uninterrupted qualifying period; under the ordinary pre-October-19 process that is 24 months. The regulations list the prohibitions and suspensions that affect experience, so do not assume every short roadside suspension is identical.
