New driving laws


Yesterday i got what i thought was my provisional license but is now actually a learners permit!!So I decided to investigate what i actually could do with a Learners permit.

I read on the RTE website that one of the major changes to the law will be that a holder of a Leaner's permit will have to be accompanied at all times.So this means I'm going to have to drive around town with my mam. how fun!!Its absolutely ridicules
I cant drive in a car with my boyfriend who just recently got his full license, he has to have two years experience. These new laws are a load of crap whats the difference in 2 years experience he was good enough to pass the test.

Also any learner driver will have to hold a licence or permit six months before taking a driving test.As if the waiting list is going to be that quick so IL probably Have this stupid Learners permit for the next year.

If I chance my arm and take the car for a quick spin and get caught unaccompanied i could face a fine up to 1000 euro and penalty points for not displaying those goofy L plates.I'm going to apply for my driving test asap so that none of these silly laws apply to me.
