MALIBU, Calif., July 18 (UPI) -- Just two weeks after getting her driver's license, Lady Gaga came face to face with the police.

The Poker Face singer, 30, was seen pulled over on the Pacific Coast Highway in her new red Ford F-150 SVT Lightning truck, apparently for not having a tag on her vehicle, Us Weekly reported.

She brushed it off on Twitter, saying it was no big deal.

The California DMV says drivers receive temporary permits when they purchase a new vehicle until they can receive their new license plate in the mail, something that can take weeks. Lady Gaga didn't say on Twitter whether she was fined. Typically, an officer will let a driver go on their way if they can show proof of ownership.

The Bad Romance singer, who is engaged to Chicago Fire star Taylor Kinney, celebrated getting her license over Fourth of July weekend with a series of humorous Instagram photos.

"Thelma and Puhleaaaze," she wrote in one of the posts, along with a photo of herself behind the wheel, along with a friend. "(And yes I FINALLY got my license after years of driving with an adult present and a learners permit) IM FREE Rollin w the homies."

And in another: "And after I passed my driving test. PRAISE HIM," she says with a photo of her on all fours outside a car, as if she's about to pass out.

In yet another post, Gaga is sitting at a school desk looking up. She posted "Me at the DMV. SCHOOLS OUT."
