The Government is giving 144,000 drivers an automatic two-year extension for licenses which are due to expire between December 1 this year and December 2021. The reprieve applies to drivers with a current five-year learner or restricted car or motorbike licence. The expiry dates are linked to a law change in 2014 that introduced a five-year time limit on restricted or learner licences. Julie Anne Genter is the Associate Transport Minister.
