What a silly scheme, just a .pdf download.

Has anyone actually ever been stopped and had their permit checked?

Hello, i got mine last year but have never been asked for it yet.

I had one somewhere, completely forgot about it and not seen it for a couple of years - that tells you how often I've needed it...

Suspect it will be around somewhere...

yep, I have one. I got them to send me one rather than print it off.

My friend Ben was stopped once. Some geezer jumped out in front of him blocking his way and was asking about a permit. Ben was not aware of the scheme so thought it was some weirdo acting weird, told him to f**k off, as you would, and carried on cycling.

yeah, it is a bit pointless.

Can we print out our own driving licenses as well?

Only if your Polish!

(Joke based on the Guarda in Ireland seeking a Polish driver stopped 50 times in 50 different cars giving 50 different addresses - the 'name' they had written down from the licences was 'driving licence' in Polish!)

My Daughter and her BF use the local towpaths and have printed permits.
