For how long is a novice driver required to display the “L” plate (V-13 signal) on their vehicle after obtaining their first license?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is 1 year from the date of obtaining the first license. According to the General Vehicle Regulations, the V-13 signal (the white 'L' on a green background) must be placed on the rear left side of the vehicle, in a visible location. Important details: It is only mandatory for the first license obtained. If, for example, you have held an A1 (motorcycle) license for over a year and then obtain a B (car) license, you are no longer considered a novice driver for this purpose and do not need to display the 'L'. If the license is withdrawn or suspended during this first year, the suspension time does not count; the remaining time must be completed once the license is recovered. The purpose is to warn other road users of the driver's inexperience so they can exercise caution.
