Revision question · Essential documents

You've just passed your practical motorcycle test. This is your first full licence. What will you have to do if you accumulate six or more penalty points within the next two years?

Revision material from the imported DVSA bank includes source-checked Lanekind learning corrections. These corrections are not newly issued official examination questions, and practice does not reproduce a live test paper.

Reapply for your provisional licenceThis was the right answer

After your first full test, further penalty points taking the total to six or more within two years lead to revocation. Unexpired provisional-licence points carry over; passing with points does not by itself trigger revocation. If revoked, apply and pay for a new provisional licence and pass both theory and practical tests again, following learner conditions meanwhile.
