girlfriends learning to drive just now and her instructor told her that i can take her out showin L plates as long as its in a car park etc

does anyone know the legalities of me takin her for some lessons?
does it have to be in private car parks or industrial est etc? or can i take her out in the open road?im i insured or does she need to be added to my insurance,all a bit confusing for me
any help appreciated

 

I think to go out on the road the person in the passenger seat has to be either over 21 or 25 and been driving for x amount of years, (think it's 3?) dunno about car parks, i used to just do it years ago when my girl was learning.

 

aslong as u are over 21 and have held your liscence over 3 years and she is insured on ya car u can take her on the roads and dual carriagways but not motorways hth

 

 

ive been driving for nearly 10 years and im fully comp on both my cars so basically i can take out in the open road if i add her

ooooooohhhhh ffffuuuuuccccccckkkkkk

not was i was wantin to hear,need to think of another excuse

 

just dont let her get a qoute on the turbo as with you and her on it will probably only go up about Ł100 and she will be wanting to learn in that good luck

 

lol just dont tell her what we said lol

 

You need to be 21+ years old, and have had your driving license for 3+ years. You need to be the policy holder on the car in use, and she has to be a named driver on the same policy. HTH

You're not going to teach her in the RS are you??

 

Her inctructor is very irresponsible, if she drives in a "public place" such as a supermarket carpark or basically anywhree the public have free access to then she could be prosecuted for no insurance, and you could get an IN12 for letting her!

 

Rab no chance mate,ill take her out in my pug 306d turbo

chip3door thought as much mate,cant afford any points on my licence as i need it for work,no licence no work so she'll get told politely to pay the difference to the insurance or go fuck herself

 

As has already been said. As long as she's insured on your car, you've got L plates on, you're over 21 and have held a full license for over 3 years then you can take her on any roads except motorways.

I helped to teach my sister to drive when my dad wasnt able to give her lessons.

One thing to note though is the car is still your responsibilty so if she gets done for speeding you get done for speeding etc. IIRC

 

Phew
