driving without supervision (learner licence holders).

In certain instances your licence can also be suspended for not paying an outstanding fine notice or a court-imposed fine.

Police can suspend your licence on the spot, or you may get a Notice of Suspension from Transport for NSW. This could happen as a result of camera-detected offences or exceeding your demerit points threshold. The notice will tell you when the suspension starts and how long it will last.

You don't need to reapply for your licence at the end of the suspension period, provided it hasn't expired.

Note: Disqualification of your licence is different to suspension. Disqualification is imposed by the court, and you need to reapply for a driver licence at the end of the disqualification period.

Appealing the suspension

Depending on the circumstances you may be able to appeal the suspension, or request a review of the fine. You must file your appeal within 28 days of the date you were suspended.

Request a review for a fine
Apply to go to court for a fine
Appeal a licence or registration decision
Apply for a good behaviour period
Going to court
Request a driving record

When you can drive again

The notice of suspension you receive will confirm when you can legally drive again. The date may change if any of the following apply:

you successfully appeal the suspension
you defend the offence in court and are found not guilty, or
you go to court and are found guilty, but no conviction is recorded.

If you drive while you're suspended there are severe penalties including:

licence disqualification
large fines
imprisonment.

There are more than 100 violations that were impacted by these new laws and many of the sanctions being cleared from driving records will involve license suspensions for failing to comply with court judgement - such as failing to pay a ticket or court fee (FCJ), or for failing to appear in court (FAC). In addition, the law also clears holds on driver's license renewals for parking ticket (FCPV) and disability parking ticket (FCDV) violations.
The process for determining which violations, convictions, and licensing actions will be cleared involved several factors, including the type of violation, the sanctions and suspensions that were levied, and how other sections of the law affect their implementation.
Drivers will be informed by the department via letter if their driving records were impacted by the changes, and whether they may be eligible to regain their driving privileges. Because of the complexity of this new law, drivers are encouraged to contact an attorney or legal-aid service if they have any questions or concerns about their driving record or how to reinstate their driving privileges. Drivers are advised to purchase a copy of their driving record when seeking legal advice.
Even though the qualifying violations, FCJ/FAC suspensions, and other sanctions will be marked as cleared and are no longer in effect, they will still appear as entries on your driving record.
Individuals who have had their driver’s license revoked for multiple alcohol or controlled substance-related driving offenses or multiple felony driving offenses and want to request a hearing with the Department of State should download or print this online document and follow the instructions.
The process for requesting a hearing is also explained at the department’s Road to Restoration clinics.
The Department of State will be hosting information sessions and virtual clinics in the coming weeks for drivers with questions. Please revisit this web page for updates and more information.
