Live in New South Wales? Just passed your driving test? The State government wants you to stay out all night.
Showing the traditional Australian appreciation of having a good time, people falling into that category are not allowed to drive with an under 25 passenger between 11PM and 5AM, which can only be because they want the State’s new qualified drivers to party that much harder. More here.
OK, maybe not, but I prefer my interpretation to the safety first approach. Having created a problem for NSW’s drivers, there are now promises of additional night busses and the like, although I think that over 25s in clubs, bars, etc will be deluged with offers of lifts at chucking out time.

You can skip to the end and leave a response.
The Australians think they are the biggest party nation in the world but I`m not convinced. Yes they drink and ,yes ,they stay out but they save energy on thinking or saying anything that would amuse an adult.,.......or washing.
So all in all we are still best
On the other hand it could be an excellent opportunity for sophisticated older men (maybe foreign) who have lived a bit and have some good stories to tell who also own a nice car/home to pull younger women?
Not the sort of thing that I would do of course.
BTW Mr Mania has summed Aussies up very well, nice laid back people but dull as fuck.
As Flanders & Swann put it:
"The English, the English, the English are best.
I wouldn't give tuppence for all of the rest".
...
The English are noble, the English are nice.
And worth any other at double the price".
