Please warn your readers about website scams which simply complete forms for provisional licences.
My son just turned 17 and pestered me to get him a provisional licence. I Googled and the first site that came up was ‘provisionalicence.co.uk’ I clicked to order the licence and paid the £50, only to receive the completed forms for me to then send to Swansea. My stupid mistake. But please warn readers to take more care than I did and get on the DVLA official site, as I am now paying a further £50 to the correct site.
