Removing lengthy license disqualification and Habitual Traffic Offender Declarations

Remove Habitual Traffic Offender from license

Prior to 28 October, 2017, the RMS had the authority to declare a person a Habitual Traffic Offender if a minimum of three serious traffic offences had been dealt with by the courts over a 5-year period.

Removing Lengthy Licence Disqualifications

On 28 October, 2017, NSW Parliament introduced reforms to: penalise dangerous drivers by keeping them off the road; and reward those who comply with lengthy disqualifications by allowing them back on the road sooner than what their disqualification period allowed.
