This form allows you to elect to take the double or nothing option and drive on the good behaviour period.

This form should only be used if you have been personally served an Excessive Demerit Points Notice (EDPN) in Western Australia, and you wish to elect a 12 month 'good behaviour period' (conditional) and continue driving in lieu of serving a disqualification period.

  • Ensure your election is received by Transport within 21 days after being served your EDPN, and
