A high powered vehicle restriction means that you are not allowed to drive what the law calls a “high powered vehicle” on a road.
If you are:
* under 25 and on your P1 or P2 licence
* any age but on your P1 licence after being disqualified for an offence which happened when you were under 25
then it is against the law for you to drive a high powered vehicle on a road.
The law says that a high powered vehicle includes:
* an engine that has a power output of more that 200 kW
* an engine with eight or more cylinders
* a turbo charged or supercharged engine (but not diesel powered engines).
You can apply to Queensland Transport for a certificate of exemption if you need to drive the high powered vehicle for work: study, medical treatment etc.
