Re licensing requirements for drink drivers and drug drivers

Re licensing requirements after a cancellation will vary depending on the nature of the cancellation.

Drink and drug driving
From 11 October 2006 all drink driving offenders with a BAC reading of 0.07 or more will be required to obtain a Licence Restoration Order before their licence can be re-issued. 

Alcohol interlocks were introduced on 1 January 2007 for first time drink driving offenders under 26 years of age or on their probationary licence. They are required to fit these devices once they are re licensed. Read more about Alcohol Interlocks at the Arrive Alive website.
