Northern Territory · Driver Knowledge Test · NT licence rules

You have just moved from your learner licence to a provisional (P) licence in the NT. What speed limit now applies to you?

The answer

  • 80 km/h, the same as a learner
  • 100 km/h, regardless of a higher posted limit Correct
  • The posted limit, with no personal cap
  • 110 km/h on all open roads

Why that's the answer

Provisional drivers in the NT must not exceed 100 km/h regardless of the posted limit, and must observe any limit below that. It is a step up from the learner cap of 80 km/h, but still short of the open-road limit.
