Driving: Young People
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if she will make an assessment of the potential merits of peer age passenger restrictions for newly qualified drivers aged under 21.
Answered by Lilian Greenwood
Whilst we are not considering Graduated Driver Licensing, we absolutely recognise that young people are disproportionately victims of tragic collisions on our roads, and we are exploring options to tackle the root causes of this without unfairly penalising young drivers.
