Congrats Mrs BP on Getting your Ps
At over 7 months pregnant my wife has just passed her driving test and got her set of red Ps. Congratulations. Now I need the phat exhaust and some duff duff to go with the Ps.

Ooooh, as a fellow "P" driver, CONGRATULATIONS!!! That test is nervewracking! The best part is... people see those P's and you can make just about any stupid maneuver because they all expect it of you. (Not that I do it on purpose 
)
Seriously though, I like the fact that people give me that little bit of extra room because they know I'm not as experienced. Makes me feel safer driving with the kids in the car. And don't mind the idiots that tailgate you just to rattle you (happened once, I should've slammed on the brakes!)
Best of luck! Enjoy those P's while you still have 'em!

Had a peak at the rta nsw site - if you present a UK license do you go on to P's or a straight swap?

Re: Congrats Mrs BP on Getting your Ps
Congrats to Mrs BP. I was 8 months pregnant when I took my test. I dont remember doing an emergency stop, and also stalled at a big junction, with several cars behind me, which I was lead to believe was an automatic failure (stop the car and walk back to the test centre) but we carried on and I passed. Maybe he didnt fancy making a heavliy pregnant woman walk 3 miles!!

Congratulations Mrs BP - excellent timing, would have been a nightmare doing after the birth! Take care and don't go over any speed bumps in a hurry now!
