thanks for the replies guys.
i know that i could have rang VICROADS, but i thought someone would be able to give me an answer rather than wait in the local office for 2 hours, or be on hold on the phone for that amount of time.
im pretty sure that vic is the same nsw, so thanks.
obviously i will have to check before i carry out anything, but it was more 'out of curiousity'.
cheers.
