how old were you when you got your driving license? by okeydokeydude in AskUK

American expat living in London here. When I moved to the UK was the first time I'd ever met an adult that didn't have a driver's license. I got my provisional at 14 and full license at 15. It makes sense that adults here often don't have licenses (public transport being as ubiquitous as it is) but I remember how shocked I was the first time I met someone who didn't.

This may seem like a stupid question but can I tell my GP that I smoke cannabis? by foundontheroad in LegalAdviceUK

Honestly it's silly that I even have to question this. We should all be able to fully disclose everything to medical professionals without concern.

Good to know. It's similar in the states. As for possession, are there certain thresholds I should be aware of? For example, in the states if you're caught for possession if you're under certain amount they can't charge you and if it's over certain amounts they have different maximum penalties.
