My friend is learning to drive and as im 21 and have been driving for 3 years she can drive with me in the car and with L plates on. My question is tho, say we go somewhere and i have a few drinks would that be illegal? Would i get done for that if it is and wot would happen to the learner? just wondering as this mite be happenin tomorrow and would be good to know cheers, steven.

as far as i know its against the law

and you would both get done. you are not allowed to be on your phone either even if you are in the passenger seat

Also make sure your insurance is sorted out too

i agree especially at this time of year. Normally i will only EVER have 1 pint if i am driving. but at this time of year with the police being more vigilant and the season of xmas parties better to not have any

I heard on the radio they may be watching people coming out of pubs etc
