As long as he's kind and considerate to Cyclists, then, what is there to worry about?

Congratulations Son of Davenport!
My son passed his test when he was 20 and the next day drove down to Birmingham for the week-end to celebrate with friends!

When my Brother passed he drove around the corner to show his mate.

Poor soul ! All that money just to insure a car could be used to buy a really nice bike !!!! Congrats though,i think we forget what a big deal it is to pass but then realise what a waste of money a car can be

Well done. My youngest passed his test at the beginning of August, the bonus for me was that he brought his car, an old Corsa, a month before he took his test, he insured it in my name for that month before he passed and I got the chance to take the Mrs out a few times.

I haven't owned a car since the late 1970's, and that was an elderly three wheeled plastic pig. Most of the driving I have done since has been small commercial vehicles, plus the occasional hire car. The bonus was being able to take the Mrs out without forking out a large sum of money on a hire car or buying coach tickets, all it cost me was the fuel I used.

Congrats on him passing the test !
Anyone see the article about the young bloke who insured a tractor as it was so expensive to insure a car , i know young drivers are statistically the most likely to have an accident but some of the quotes are getting ridiculous. £18,0000 a year for a p reg polo WTF
