Green p plates?
if you read the accompanying letter it well tell you that you are not apart of this new restriction stuff. the reason we got green p plates is to differentiate us from them. in other words, the green p plates are for the %26#039;old%26#039; p platers - those who got their p%26#039;s before the new restrictions. They%26#039;re very ugly though.
Reply:lol, do not panic. I too got sent green p plates and by looking at vicroads website and the accompanying letter i can divine that all Current Red Platers, including you, must now put green plates up. (1st July 2008 Onwards)





Basically us %26#039;old%26#039; platers still have our 3 year P plate period it%26#039;s just that with the new laws our plates are no longer red but green.





That is all. So you did right in getting in before new laws it%26#039;s just your plates go from red to green and still last 3 years.





Hope this helped.
