Is the age limit for driving going up to 18?

Question

If so, when?

Answer 1

Actually from my own experience working as an insurance broker then becoming a fire fighter........99% of accidents in the uk are caused by someone over the age of 21 from what I've found.

Don't have a go at young drivers, you were one too once.

The government is planning on shooting boy racers in the near future

Answer 2

I don't think there are any plans yet, it's just been talked about.

Answer 3

There are no plans to raise the limit for learners to 18.

Answer 4

21 would be better.

Answer 5

Dont know,,, 18 still to young,,, 21 would be better

Answer 6

There have been rumours about that going on here in Michigan for years, but they figured that the state will lose money because of cutting out that section of drivers. They can't make money off the licence fee if they cut out those drivers.

The driving age here is still the same.

16 for Operators Licence

14 for Farming or Economic Distress endorsement.

Answer 7

should be 21. less accidents and boy racers

Answer 8

wish it would go up to 21 then it would keep a load of idiots of the roads, do us all a favour learn to ride a motorbike 1st and then do your car test - it will save you injuring a motorcyclist as you will be more aware of them

Answer 9

In California, it's still 16.

Answer 10

Not in the UK.  They're discussing it, again, but as usual no decision has been reached.  If they ever do, it will happen some considerable time after that decision.

Answer 11

possibly it might check with your local dmv

Answer 12

it has not been decided yet so not in the near future

Answer 13

What area are you talking about?

Answer 14
