Advanced driving
We must make young people aware that they can improve their driving after passing their L test – it’s called the advanced driving test. We use the same training criteria as the police class 1 drivers (roadcraft).

I am fed up listening to the typically narrow minded individuals that think all the problems on the road will be solved with limiting driving age groups. This method DOES NOT work.

| 03-4-2008 | I believe that the age restriction will not help, in fact it shall just cause more chaos because all the younger drivers which are not yet passed shall intentionally drive illegally (without a liscence, insurance, MOT, road tax etc...). If something is to be restricted, it should be the horse power ...more | Raz |

Electrify you are kinda right, but the problem is that the cars some people give their children too powerful cars! They are just looking for trouble! As for "experienced" drivers who have fallen int...more | Jez |
| 21-3-2008 | I think the car test is too easy thats why s**t drivers get on to the road mostly female. Try doing a motor bike test it is very hard I did and I only got two minors I was going for none but I made two mistakes.
making people retake there test would be a good idea. I would love to because I a y...more | Lewis Hamilton |
| 01-2-2008 | I don't think that raising the Age at which one can drive to 18 or indeed 21 or any age would have any effect. I think that for the most part we see young people 17 and 18 year olds driving poorly is though lack of experience in car handling. pray do tell how someone aged 21 and never used a car...more | daniel |
| 21-1-2008 | electrify your a twat, you don;t happen to drive a volvo do you, some of the worst mistakes on the road are made by "experienced" drivers who have fallen into the trap of bad habits.
ALL road users should be re-tested every 5 years, that will weed out the sh1t ones hopefully. | 4x4 Annihilation Chairman |
| 18-1-2008 | Young drivers --- I beleive that young drivers very often show off and are egged on by groups of passengers thus causing accidents, restricting young drivers to only one passenger would be one way and not raising the age to 18. | electrify |
| 14-1-2008 | I think you're absolutely correct aswell as that if the government is that bothered they should put cameras in the novice drivers car and also have a stricter point system. They could limit the cars like for mopeds for instance you can drive at 16/17 but your only aloud to drive cars with an eng...more | P. Harrison |
| 12-1-2008 | Comment:It seems to be the 'In' thing these days to aim all criticism at young drivers. While I admit that young drivers can be irresponsible, the answer isn't simply to raise the age limit.
Can you remember when you were 16, just about to turn 17 and learn to drive? It's an excit...more | HHobbit |
| 13-12-2007 | Carl, you are obviously a very lucky young man.In my job as a mortuary attendant I have seen lots of super young drivers and their passengers who,with a little common sense, would,nt have finished up requiring my services,it is part of my job to put their innards back where they belong and to make t...more | Handyman |
| 30-11-2007 | Hang on Carl, so because you were a moron when you were 17-20 means that every other young driver must be tainted with the same brush?
You say that the legal age should be 21, therefore at 20 years old you still don't consider yourself to be a roadworthy driver. So why don't you sell your...more | Brian C |
| 02-10-2007 | ok most 17 and 18, 19 year olds burn rubber, wheel spin and race around without a care in the world thats what teenagers do,I am 20 and had about 7 accidents and written off 5 cars in 3years of driving,I im still alive to tell the tale after 3 weeks in hospital following a accident I caused, lucki...more | carl |
| 05-7-2007 | The solution lies in compulsory re-test at intervals to ensure standards achieved are maintained. Further tests to improve skills should be mandatory. Age is irrelevant. It is skills & attitudes that matter.
By comparison I hold a private pilot's licence. Every two years I have a one hour...more | Grumpy old driver |
