Re: Training
"Do you also advocate yearly driving tests?"Yes. For senior citizens over 70. Because someone more senior than citizen, so to speak, hurling two tons of metal around can be very dangerous.
Youngsters not so much...
RACT Insurance has released statistics showing one in eight young drivers regularly checks emails or text messages while driving, compared with only one per cent of drivers over the age of 60.The research also shows 20 per cent of young drivers on Tasmanian roads admit regularly exceeding the speed limit.
That figure is almost double the rate of the overall population.
