Lady Gaga -- The Growing Pains of A New Driver (PHOTO GALLERY)

Lady Gaga has only had her driver's license for a few weeks but she's already gotten a crash course in getting pulled over.

Gaga was cruisin' The PCH in Malibu Friday when she got pulled over. It's unclear exactly what Gaga did to warrant the stop ... but things didn't seem to get too serious. One thing's for sure though ... she's drives a pretty sweet throwback truck.

Gaga announced earlier this month she'd finally gotten her driver's license -- looks like she's learning pretty quickly -- it ain't all that fun.
