Present Perfect Or Present Perfect Continuous

Hey, guys, I'm now doing my homework but I'm not sure about this example:

A: Sorry I'm late!
B:That's all right. I haven't waited/I haven't been waiting long.


Which one do I have to use? Another example:

She's just got her driving licence. She hasn't been driving/hasn't driven for very long.

Which one do I have to use, the Present Perfect or the Present Perfect Continuous?

Thank you very much!
