Mark Revill-Johnson: Institute of Driver Educators President on the changes to the drivers licensing system

A view more practical training for drivers will be essential, with the full licence test in the rear-view mirror.  After passing the restricted licence test, drivers under the age of 25 will have to wait out a mandatory 12-month period before they can apply for a full licence.   Those aged over 25 will have to wait six months.   Institute of Driver Educators President Mark Revill-Johnson told Ryan Bridge it's important to get training all the way to a full licence.  He says lots of people fail that test for things like speeding and failing to follow stop and give way signs.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
