If you are older than 17, you can obtain a learner’s licence for the following vehicles: • A motor cycle with an engine capacity of 125 cc or more • A car • A minibus • A small goods vehicle • A larger vehicle

If you are 16 years old, you can obtain a learner’s licence for a motor cycle with an engine capacity of between 50 cc and 125 cc.

Once you have obtained a learner’s licence, you may drive the type of vehicle for which the learner’s licence is valid. However, you must be accompanied by a licensed driver, except in the case of a motor cycle because a learner driver may not transport another person on a motor cycle.

To apply for a learner’s licence you need to complete form LL1 at a driving licence testing centre. You must then submit this form together with the following: • Two identical black and white or colour photographs of yourself • Your ID document • The required fee

The driving licence testing centre will provide you with a date and time on which you will be allowed to complete the learner’s licence test. The learner’s licence test will verify your knowledge of the rules of the road, road traffic signs and the controls of a motor vehicle.
