Given a travel related situation, and given a specific question about the situation, summarize the question into a title

Q: Rental car companies almost all have in their terms that the driver must have had a license for some amount of time, usually 1 to 5 years.

However, on my driver's license it only shows the date that particular card was issued, not the date I first got my license.  I imagine this is the case for a lot of people.  Because licenses expire every few years, this "issued" date will often not meet the time requirement.

What documentation do I use to prove to a rental car company how long I've had my license?  I doubt they just take you at your word.



It has been suggested that this question is a duplicate of this one.  However, nothing there answers my question.

The most relevant answer there says:


  First things first: rental companies will check your driving licence for validity before they confirm your rental car.
  
  Secondly your age will be checked since there are usually extra fees to be paid by young (< 25 years old) drivers.


But then makes this claim from those statements:


  Having performed these two checks they will know if you qualify as a young driver, and from there computing the validity years of your licence will be a trivial operation.


I fail to see how computing the validity years of a license is a "trivial operation" once you know the drivers age and have their license.  If the license does not have the first issue date on it, merely knowing how old someone is does not in any way tell you how long they have had their license.

Q: I'm planning to visit a few places in Egypt during the month of January or February.  The locations on my itinerary are:


Cairo
Alexandria
Aswan
Abu Simbel
Luxor


I plan to spend anywhere from 1 to 2 days at those locations.  Is it culturally acceptable for a male to wear shorts, tshirts and flip flops?  What's the temperature like at this time of the year?  Will I need a sweater?  Are hiking boots required or just the general walking shoes?  My tour will not include hiking for more than 1 hour.


A: What kind of clothes and footwear are ideal to visit Egypt?

Q: Last time I visited the UK, 
it took 3 hours to get through the immigration queues.

I recall seeing signs saying something like:


  "Registered Travellers from [list of countries] can use the EU/UK lines."


I have another trip the the UK in a few months,
and I am really dreading the giant queue, especially after a 17 hour flight.

So I am looking up how to become a Registered Traveller.

It says:



Apply online for Registered Traveller membership. ...
You'll get a decision on your application within 10 working days. ...
If your application is accepted, the next time you travel to the UK you must go through the 'other passports' lane and fill in a landing card.
The immigration officer will check that you meet the criteria and tell you if you can become a member. ...



So does this mean that being accepted at point 2, isn't a real acceptance.
You get the real acceptance the first time you enter after applying, using the 'other passports' lane (i.e. the non-UK/EU line).
And then after that if you visit the UK again (assuming all successful), you get to use the EU/UK lane?

(I mostly just want to know if I am understanding it right. I think other things mean it just isn't financially worth it to me to become a registered traveller. I'ld need to pay for a Visa since I've not visited 4 times before)


A:
Is it possible to use UK/EU lanes as a Registered Traveller the first time you enter the UK after applying?
