Learning to drive age limit!

As a driving instructor I am reguarly asked when is the minimum age for learning to drive going to change?The answer is the same as it was over 20 years ago when I was learning to drive, and that is there is no change, the minimum age (in most cases) is still 17 years old. The Driving Stanards Agency (DSA) are currently conducting a consultation paper on various aspects relating to learning to drive. One of the areas being considered is the minimum age limit. My own feelings are that there will be no change, however when the final decisions on the consultation paper are published we will advise you here of any changes. All information correct at October 2008 We hope that you find the following pages helpful and informative
