The answer

  • P1 (red plates) for 6 months only
  • A full licence immediately
  • P1 (red plates) for at least 1 year, then P2 (green plates) for 3 years Correct
  • P2 (green plates) for 4 years

Why that's the answer

Drivers licensed under 21 hold a P1 probationary licence (red P plates) for at least 12 months, then move to P2 (green P plates) for 3 years before qualifying for a full licence.
