An idea for driving test changes

 

1. Pass the standard test and your allowed to drive as usual for 1 year or until you pass the advanced driving test whichever is sooner. (so you can only drive after the 1st year if you have an advanced driving license.

 

2. A seperate test for any motorway driving

 

3. Additional tests for people with cars in different high powered / sports cars - say 400bhp plus have to have had "X" amount of experience in lower powered cars before allowed to drive higherpowered ones unless a test as done - Similar to motorcycle tests.

 

4. Revisionary tests every 10 years and every year over age of 50.

 

IMO the above would ensure the people driving would actually be able to drive properly and wouldn't be so nervous due to confidence. Also they would be more aware of other road users (though BMW drivers would have to have their own test as they really need extra help in this area). It would also mean that people / in-experienced drivers wouldn't have so many accidents which in turn would bring our insurance costs down.

 

So the above is just ONE big change to the driving tests procedures

 

Just my 2p worth - hehe
