Good thing too.

Jnr could only afford to insure a 1.0 Corsa & that was £1700 & he did the pass plus. Just seen in the local paper tonight that Huddersfield is one of the countries dearest places for insurance, Oldham being top followed by Bradford, something to do with a high proportion of non-insured drivers so we are all having to pay for that.:(
As Jnr passed first time I suppose it could be made harder including a motorway stint,...... but learners aren't allowed on so don't know how they would get round that. One thing's for sure there should be a compulsory stint on m-way.

You haven't grasped it - it's no good limiting engine size, Daihatsu will come along, see a niche market and sell a twin-turbo with 140bhp.....and those people who buy 'em will HAVE to prove how fast they are and how clever THEY are for having circumvented the law !

NO - limit the engine power - no more than 50 bhp for the first two years - that's enough to be able to keep up on a m-way, go down to the shops, carry four adults in AND the govt. can claim to be environmentally conscious.....and if the UK was really smart, they'ed develop a small car themselves (whose design could later be modified to be a hybrid) and market it....and not just in the UK - sell the idea of a limited bhp car for the young, get it passed through the euro parliament (get yer own back time) and sell it all over Europe, improve the countrys' balance of payments, solve the economy crises AND take the credit for reduced young drivers' road deaths !

Vote Sean !:lol:

The limitations on bikes are not only engine size but power as well Sean.
 
Give them all a jab which rids them of all that excess testosterone lol.
 
One more prick ?

Just encourage more track-days especially for starter drivers to safely let off all that steam.
