A provisional licence holder who was driving alone in their car this week got a stark reminder on the guidelines for learner drivers.

A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “The driver of the vehicle was stopped and found to be driving on a provisional licence. They had no supervision and no L-plates displayed.

"The vehicle was seized and driver reported.”

A provisional licence enables people to drive everywhere – except on motorways – as long as they are supervised and display 'L' plates on the vehicle you're driving.
