This is not allowed on the windscreen, lights or number plate, but it can be on the shock absorber or hood, for example. In this way, vehicles in front and the crossing traffic also see that one is dealing with a driver in training, according to Touring. The organization believes that people with a provisional driving license should be able to practice sufficiently.
