SIR – The RAC highlight the fact that more accidents and deaths on the road are caused by teenage drivers than those of other age groups.
They wish to introduce smaller passenger numbers and curfews on teenage drivers as a means of reducing accidents.
Who will monitor them? Can you imagine the problem facing our police as they try to identify the age of a driver in the dark, or the age of every driver with however number of passengers aboard?
Maybe the RAC will set up a scheme monitoring every driver on the road to rule out whether they are teenagers trying to beat the system.
Surely the answer is to raise the age for driving to 20. No teenage drivers equals problem solved.
