Lost Licence Question.

    Hi folks.

    So as you can probably guess, I lost my licence on Friday. My wallet either fell out or was taken out of my pocket with licence and cards etc. inside.

    I don't fancy spending my lunch hour on hold to the tax office tonorrow so I thought I'd ask here and see if anyone has been in a similar situation.

    I have all the relevant paper work ready to go, however I have one year left on my full restricted A licence.

    This licence category doesn't exist anymore I don't think, so I'm really paranoid they'll just issue me an A2 licence or something of the sort.

    Anybody been in this situation?

    Also, me and the Iads from the club are planning on riding to a rally in scotland This weekend. Am I still licenced?

    If you are 24 and over, you will be issued with an A unrestricted Licence, but your restriction will continue from 2 years since you test was passed.

    If you are under 24 you will be issued with an A2 (35kw)

    Right. I'm 24. So I should be ok.

    Could they really downgrade me to an A2 even though I hold a full A? My driver number and all is still the same, I just lost the piece of paper.

    Hi Pedro
    as was said already you will get an unrestricted A back but your restriction will carry over.
    because your over 24 you won't get an A2.
    As far as Scotland is concerned you should have your licence with you at all times but that's your own decision to take.
