Can i drive a smart car on a provisional lisence?



    




<----->
Yes you can drive a Smart Car on a provisional licence, just like any other car, but you will need to display L plates front and rear, not drive on motorways and be supervised by someone who is at least 21 years old and has held their full car licence for a minimum of three years for the class of vehicle you wish to drive (i.e. if they have an automatic licence they can only supervise you in an automatic car). You will of course need to be insured to drive the car and it must be in roadworthy condition (it's your responsibility to check), taxed and have an MOT (if over three years old).

the rules are the same for a smart car as any other car. You need someone in the car with you who is over 21 and has at least 3 years driving experience. You need to be insured to drive it too.If you drive it on your own without someone in the car you are breaking the law and can face serious consiquences.

It is just a normal car, albeit a very small one, so the same rules apply as to any car.
You can drive it with "L" plates displayed, a qualified supervisor in the passenger seat, and the appropriate insurance cover.

no you can't. you need a full licence to drive any car alone.....unless you are sad enough to drive a three wheeler Reliant Robin :-/

You can drive any car as long as you're insured and have an experienced passenger with a full licence.

No way they are a normal car they just have a small engine (I have one). You can only drive cars without a reverse gear with a provisional licence

Probably..its small enough to drive on a provisional license but you wont have much room to turn without driving off the provisional licence which is ,after all, only very small..


Cindy
I think so...

yes, the choice includes 3 wheeled cars, bubble cars, bugs, trikes, invalid carriages and three wheeled 'smart' cars.
