Always: Please remember that the law requires that you must display Clear & Visible Learner "L" Plates to the Front and Back if you are riding on a provisional licence.
Please Be Aware of the following:
It is a legal requirement for learner drivers to display L plates whilst driving a car / motorcycle / scooter on public roads. In Wales, ‘L’ or ‘D’ plates must be displayed. Rules state that an L plate must be clearly on display at the front and rear of the vehicle. You may display more than one set of L plates if you wish. This can prove beneficial if an L plate falls off.
Fines and penalty points vary for not displaying L plates. If a learner driver is stopped by the police for failing to display, or failing to correctly display L plates, penalties range from advice and a warning issued to the driver, or up to six penalty points and a fine. Typically a fine of £100 and 3 penalty points is issued in the form of a Fixed Penalty Notice. This falls under the offence of ‘driving otherwise than in accordance with a licence’ – code: LC20.
L plates must meet regulation size to remain legal for road use as detailed below. Trimming L plates is an offence and is typically undertaken by learner motorcycle and moped riders.
Other rules state that L plates must be kept clean, to not be defaced or excessively damaged and placed in a highly visible location.
