Damn, no Learner plate!

[yankeedoodle]

So I parked my bike up at my mates yesterday to find that my back L plate has fallen off somewhere along the road. Well that's just great. Anyway I need my bike to get to the bike shop to get a new set (bit of a catch 22)

There was a topic on here somewhere about making your own learner plate. Could someone please tell me if it's legal to make your own? Or could you point me in the direction of the topic im looking for.

Cheers

And this is what my life has come to, explaining common sense to kids.


Get your crayons out and a bit of paper and draw one. For added excitement trace around the one you've still got.

If you have a fancy printer then you could scan the one you've got and make a copy.

brilliant, just making sure its legal.

all i can ask of the mighty gods is that i myself one day yield supreme biking supremacy like yourself

cheers

By that time I will be dead and the world will consist of wannabe biker hero's who worried about their L plates,


great.

Or you could just use public transport to get to the bike shop and back?!

My back L plate came off like 2 months ago. Either some little wanker nabbed it, or it came off in mid travel(I could feel it knocking against something when I hit bumpy roads, so maybe it was one bump too many and it broke off). I really should get a new one. I'd be lying if I said I didn't have time to get a new one. I'll make an extra effort to get one tomorrow.

i dont think they're 'legit stamped' or anything, so you should be able to make your own.

needs to be 7x7 inches

Lol no kidding. Seriously the wrong attitude I know. If I get pulled over by a copper in a bad mood then i'm pretty screwed.

Is there a "most stupid and pointless thread started by a snot nosed kid" button we can push?

Yank,

I would not worry about it too much matey, I rode for 2 years without L plates (I thought they were a bit camp ).

I fortunately was only ever pulled once whilst on a CBT and the coppers never even asked about "L" plates.

Now I am not suggesting you should not have plates on, but I dont think you will be locked up for riding your bike a few miles to a dealer / shop to get one.

If it is that worrying then create one, or I could even send my old ones in the post to you as I no longer have a use for them!!
