The 11 options in the discussion paper are:
1. Increasing the mandatory period of supervised driving for Learner drivers from 50 hours to 100 hours.
2. Increasing the minimum period as a Learner driver from six months to 12 months.
3. Increasing the age for P plate licenses to 18 years.
4. Further developing formal driver training.
5. Providing an increased role for secondary schools in driver training.
6. Improvements to the on-road test to progress from a Learner to a P plate driver.
7. A limit of one passenger for P1 drivers aged under 26, with exemptions.
8. Prohibiting P plate drivers from driving high-powered vehicles, with exemptions.
9. Modifying the demerit point structure for young drivers.
10. Introducing a night driving restriction, with exemptions.
11. A requirement for 15 hours of night driving for Learner drivers.
I personally disagree with a few of them. In particular, having to be 18 before getting the red Provisional license. Many teens need a car to start work after high school, and quite a few don't turn 18 before first half of year after graduation.
As for high powered vehicles... I kind of agree. Teens shouldn't drive 500hp monsters on the street. But a BPU'd WRX or a stockish twin turbo Supra... or an SS Commy?! this should be allowed in my opinion.
I mean who would want to be limited to driving a slug...
And cars like Corollas, what if u want to turbo them?? Its bullshit if you couldn't do something like this.
just my 2 cents
