Drivers must display an L plate on their vehicle at all times. You can receive up to six points (and/or a fine) on your license for failing to do so, so it’s incredibly important to make sure they’re on! How many L plates do you need on a car? Your L plates should be easily visible to other road users on both the front and rear of your vehicle. As such, if you’re a learner, your car should have two L plates at all times and place them in a noticeable position. As P plates aren’t mandatory, you might be wondering why people choose to display them. However, there are definitely benefits to putting them on. Displaying a P plate is the only way to show other drivers that you don’t have much experience. This is important as, since you’ll have only recently passed your test, you may not have driven around much alone. In fact, many learners even choose to take their instructor on their driving test. You may therefore need a bit more time to fully adjust to driving solo on a regular basis. Since a P plate lets other drivers know that you’re fresh on the road, it also encourages them to give you a bit more leeway when it comes to making mistakes. With other drivers being somewhat more lenient, this, in turn, gives you time to become a more confident driver, and avoid becoming one of the many young road users caught up in car accidents.

Ruined my car
I put the learner stickers at the back and front bumper on my car, I tried readjusting the front one and it took my paint off at the front
