    You will need a learner's permit in the poca before you take to the road.

    You can drive on closed, private land. This is land on which other people are not permitted access. Car parks, industrial estates, etc are public places in law, and you are not permitted to drive here without a licence.

    Mondello would probably count as private, but I imagine they have their own rules :)

    These guys have a huge private campus where you can get lessons without a licence.
