IS THIS EVEN POSSIBLE? N7 driver on Learner Permit for 30 years!

Naas Roads Policing Unit stopped a car on the N7 while operating a speed check over the weekend.
The car was detected travelling at a speed of 147kph in a 100kph zone, on a greasy road surface.

According to the Road Safety Authority, a first and second Learner Permit are normally valid for two years.
In order to get a third or subsequent Learner Permit you must have booked or sat and failed the driving test in the previous two years.
If you have sat and failed a Driving Test in the previous two years you will be issued with a two-year Learner Permit.
If you have booked or have an upcoming Driving Test you will be issued with a one-year Learner Permit.
