L plates
Beginner driver signs
L plates are signs displaying a red letter L on a white background, required on vehicles driven by learner drivers in the UK, Ireland, and Australia.
They signal to other motorists that the driver is inexperienced and still learning.
Figuratively, someone still on their L plates is new to something: I'm still on my L plates with this software.
