In a bold but long overdue move, the government has declared that it will be introducing a new green paper for all young drivers to serve as both a guide to proper driving etiquette whilst also helping young drivers reduce insurance premiums.
The paper will be the first of its kind and will have a number of functions, from addressing key topics and news through to introducing a number of new legislations all aimed at improving the driving and learning experience for young drivers.
The paper will also see changes made to the actual driving test, with drivers being required to take lessons on motorway driving and during darkness, as well as potentially during adverse weather conditions (where possible).
The government has also declared that it is considering imposing restrictions on newly qualified drivers, although exactly what kind of restrictions has yet to be decided.
The government sought advice from a number of motoring groups and orgnisations in order to ensure that the paper contained all of the most relevant and essential information for young drivers from latest news to proposed legislatory changes and everything in between.
The green paper is the result of numerous cross-organisational discussions and consultations in order to be sure that all of the major driving groups and associations were happy with the proposed changes and that they represented the most effective changes possible.
One such organisation is the DIA (Driving Instructors Association) who proposed bringing driver training lessons into the school curriculum and placing a more concerted effort to for friends and family to support and encourage your drivers as much as possible.
Mr McLoughlin went on to explain that he has always wanted to see insurance premiums fairly reflect the driving conditions, the drivers performance and the road conditions, something which at present is not fairly considered by the majority of insurance companies.
