Have you received a notice of licence disqualification in South Australia due to demerit points or a breach of your provisional or probationary licence conditions? You may be eligible to appeal the disqualification through the Magistrates Court.

This application is commonly referred to as a driver licence appeal. It is a legal process designed to help those who would suffer severe and unusual hardship from losing their ability to drive.

 

 

Can You Appeal?

 

You may be able to appeal if:

• You hold a provisional or probationary licence (P1 or P2)

• You have been disqualified under section 81B of the Motor Vehicles Act

• You have not appealed or entered a Safer Driver Agreement in the last 5 years

 

 

Why Legal Advice Matters

A successful licence appeal is not automatic. The Court will consider the severity of the hardship and whether you pose a risk to road safety. Supporting evidence and clear submissions are crucial.
