Yes. One forgets how much there is for them to learn.

We were in England last week and saw many "learner's permit" stickers (even on motorcycles, except theirs were a white background with a red L)...If I may ask, what is the timeframe that one leaves this designator on the vehicle?

 I suck at spelling I always have and I use firefox and PP's Spell check does not fuction with it, I depend on the little red lines to appear under wrong words and they did not appear under my looser. Loser, oh look neither has red lines. I guess I am one too. Stuart. Where do you live that you put a L on the back of a car for learners permit drivers? I have never seen that before.

I don't think you are a loser at all, Jim. I use spell-check all the time. What I was trying to say is that those words will not be underlined because they're both spelled correctly, and spell-check can't tell grammar or what you are trying to say.
"Loose"= this nut is loose, and "Lose"= we are going to lose this game. |

Roux, Jim. I dont know what currently happens in the UK, in my state in AUS, younguns can get L plates at 16. They must have log booked 120 hours on L's (with a fully licensed driver) before sitting a licence practical and written test at (minimum) 18. Then they carry a red/white P (Probational) plate for 3 years with vehicle/bike type restrictions. Any infringment in that first 3 years (including .00 alchohol) costs them their licence. New laws are just being introduced banning P platers from carying passengers in year 1. (silly, IMHO)
