South Australia · Learner's Theory Test · SA licence rules

How must L plates be displayed while you are driving on your learner's permit?

The answer

At both the front and rear of the vehicle, clearly visible to other road users Correct
Only on the rear of the vehicle
Only when driving at night
One plate on the windscreen is enough

Why that's the answer

Learner drivers must display L plates at the front and rear of the vehicle so they are clearly visible whenever they are driving. Driving without properly displayed plates is a breach of your permit conditions.
