DID YOU KNOW?
Under UK law, foreign nationals with international driving permits are allowed to drive on British roads for a maximum of 12 months. Once that period expires, they are required to apply for a provisional UK licence and pass the full practical driving test to continue driving legally.
Law firm JMW said: “If you have been charged with driving without a licence, you could face serious punishment. Potential penalties for this type of offence include a fine, penalty points and a driving ban. Driving without a licence is a serious motoring offence in the eyes of the law. This means it can carry significant penalties that may affect your ability to drive in the future.”
