“A” disc for new drivers (French sign)

Throughout the probationary period: 3 years after standard or supervised driver training, 2 years after accompanied driving. Additional post-license training shortens these periods by one year.

That's where magnetic really makes sense: after three years, a sticker leaves a mark or a difference in paint shade. Ours doesn't.

On the back of the vehicle, on the bodywork, usually at the bottom left, and visible to other road users. It must not cover the license plate or the lights. Avoid the rear window: the decree of May 5, 1994 prohibits this when it obstructs visibility.

If it is missing or wrongly placed, the fixed fine in France is €35, with no points deducted.

Yes, as long as the regulation format is respected. The French decree of May 5, 1994 defines the “A” disc (French new-driver sign) as a round sign on a white background with a red letter A, 15 cm in diameter for a car. Our discs follow this format: personalization only affects the text placed around the A, and the regulated elements are left unchanged.

On a steel body, yes. A magnet won't hold on aluminum, plastic or composites, and some tailgates, hoods and bumpers are made of them. Try several spots before you set off, giving the disc a light push to check that it holds.

There is no glue or adhesive, so nothing is left behind when you remove it. The only risk is dust: a grain of sand caught between the magnet and the body can scratch over time. Wipe the area before putting it on, and take the disc off from time to time to clean both sides.
