Is it easier to get a licence in the UK or Australia?
My son wants a provisional licence for a 50cc motorbike in Australia when he is 16. We're moving to WA and he wants to know if its easier to get one here or down under. Thanks!

Re: Is it easier to get a licence in the UK or Australia?
In the UK at 16 you are required to do a CBT to be able to ride on 50cc moped with l plates.
As far as i'm aware here - you just need to complete the computer theory test, pass that, smiple eye test and get issued a learners permit to ride on l plates on a moped.

My daughter has just done hers - there is an online trial test for the theory test that you can practice on on dpi website, easy really
Just make sure he takes all relevent info with him including bank card with signature and a letter of consent from yourselves as he's under 18.
