I disagree with limiting young drivers to cars with smaller engine sizes....there aren't many young drivers out there with large powerful cars as they can't afford the insurance on them! Most young drivers inc 'boy/girl racers' are limited to 1.4 or smaller due to costs anyway. Those with large powerful cars tend to be the ones driving with no insurance...as I found to my peril when I was hit by one!
As for the 6 points and retake your test I totally agree with that..I also believe everyone should have refresher training every 10/15 years regardless of age as the bad habits picked up in some people are dangerous and rules/regs change so much it's hard to keep up.
