Failing to display a beginner driver mark or to carry your license is never punished if it was only careless, not deliberate.
初心運転者標識の表示義務違反や免許証の携帯義務違反は、わざとではなくうっかりした場合であれば、まったく罰せられない。
This statement is FALSE
Explanation
Paragraph 3 states that committing the offences in items 11 and 12 of paragraph 1 through negligence is also punishable by a fine of up to 20,000 yen. Carelessness is no excuse.
