National
·45 reactions·100% agree

Do not introduce rule that new drivers must wait 6 months before taking a test. There is a standard set by the government to pass a test. If it's passed by a new driver, it should be accepted as by the standards. Crash courses should be allowed.

I want the Government to lower the age at which people can sit driving tests and get a full driving licence to 13. I have always wanted to drive by a young age and a lot of other people do want to as well.
