Well all I have to say is in America, Austrailia, France and many more countries people are allowed to begin to drive cars or ride motorbikes, when over here the laws change about the age limit people are to learn to drive I think we should be able to drive from the age of 16.

I'm 14..

I've already driven in lebanon.. legally.. i personally think that all over 14s should be able to drive but before that should have a personality test or something like that to make sure they are sensible and stuff.. other than that you'll get teenagers speedin round...

i sound a bit older than 14 but believe me i am.....

No, you shouldn't, 17 is a decent age to learn to drive, the last thing we need is more school kids racing around in daddy's car, smashing it, killing their friends and making insurance prices rocket........

Indeed! Btw you are getting done on your insurance!!!

I got a brand new ford Ka 1.3 fuel injection 2 weeks ago i only have 1 years No Claims and my insurance is £1088.88 and thats fully comp! Yeah i know thats more but the thing is if you have been driving for 3 years (remember whilst being a learner you cannot claim no claims bonuses) your insurance should be around £600 or less!

goto www.Tesco.co.uk they do really good insurance
