Possible Penalties for Driving Without a Licence

There are a number of circumstances under which you may be charged with driving without a licence.

Firstly, if you have not passed a driving test but have been caught behind the wheel, you may be given between 3 and 6 penalty points for when you do have a licence, a maximum fine of £1,000 and a possible ban, again enforceable when you do pass your test.

In addition, if you are a learner driver, only hold a provisional licence and are caught driving without a supervisor who is over 21 and has held a licence for three years or more, without 'L' plates displayed on the vehicle, you could face similar penalties.

Furthermore, you could be punished if you have an ordinary or specific kind of driving licence but are caught driving a different vehicle, such as an LGV.
