Hi,

Could you please explain me what a 'full driving licence' is?

Thanks

Hi,

As far as the UK is concerned 'a full driving licence' is the licence you get when you have passed your driving test and you can legally drive a car without having with you another licence holder. Initially before you have passed your test but want to drive a car, you have to be accompanied by someone who holds a full driving licence and have a plate with a large 'L' in red attached to both the front and rear of the car. In that situation you have to pay for a licence which is called 'a provisional driving licence'
