Is the Driving Age being raised to 18?

Every day we are asked by prospective customers, is the driving age being raised from 17 to 18? The industry is about to go through some radical changes in an attempt to reduce the amount of deaths on the road. The government will be considering various options later this year. Whatever happens, before any changes can be made, the government must issue a consultation document which will be published here www.dsa.gov.uk This consultation document gives us all the chance to voice our opinion to any changes. As a prospective learner will be able to have a say on any changes so look out for the document and make sure you send in your opinion. There are many alternatives to the problem and we believe that simply putting up the age will move the problem a year on. Let us know what you think and reply to this blog.
