Licence Suspension FAQ
What is a vehicle related offence?
A vehicle related offence is an offence that only occurs when the alleged
offender has used a motor vehicle. This includes parking offences.
Can I have an Instalment Plan once I have been given a 'Notice of Intention
to Suspend Driver Licence'?
Yes. You can pay in full or apply for an Instalment Plan even after a notice
of 'Intention to Suspend Driver Licence' has been issued. Either of these
actions will prevent your licence from being suspended.
How can I get my licence re-instated after a suspension?
You can pay your fine in full or you can agree to pay by instalments. If you
are unable to pay by instalments, you may request a financial assessment to
determine if you are eligible to have your fine converted to unpaid community
service.
Can I get a special licence so that I can still work?
No. A SPER licence suspension applies to all motor vehicle licences in Queensland
and no special provisions exist to allow for restricted licences (e.g work
licences).
You must either pay in full, agree to pay by instalments, or request a financial assessment to identify if you can have your fine converted to unpaid community service.
Can I pay at Australia Post?
Yes. Take your 'Notice of Intention to Suspend Driver Licence' to your local
Australia Post Office or via the internet with POSTbillpay.
