What To Do Next

Under 17

Three months before your 17th birthday you can apply for your provisional license – or as soon as you're 16, if you're disabled and receiving mobility allowance. Then once you're 17, you can legally drive a car on public roads in the UK.
 
Check your eyes

Before you start learning, make sure you can read a number plate in good daylight from 20.5 metres away – that's about five car lengths. If you wear glasses or contacts, that's fine. Just make sure you always wear them when driving.

Get your 'L' plates

When you're learning, you'll need to put 'L' plates somewhere they can be seen easily. And you're only allowed to drive with someone who's passed their test, is over 21 and has been driving for three years or more.

Book your theory

Book your theory test if you haven’t already done so, so that you can learn the practical with the theory together. If you don’t want book it your self, don’t worry we can do all of that for you.
