Hybrid Licence Restrictions

[Rob MacLennan]

you mean false positives?

Yup, essentially. I hope that all novice and young drivers use alcohol free mouthwash.

I currently hold a GM1 licence

my friend told me on the weekend that with my hybrid licence, I am not allow to have any alcohol in my blood even if I am driving a car with a G licence, because the restrictions applies to my lowest (novice) M1 licence.

Is this true?

This is not true. The M1 restrictions apply to your operation of a motorcycle and your G restrictions apply to your operation of a motor vehicle.

BUT, the punishment applies to your license (all classes). If you're caught with a .01 BAC with an M1/2 while on a bike, you lose both your M and G.
