Do you think that states should require senior citizens to take a driving test after a certain age?
No, too dangerous. It should be compulsory after passing i.e Passplus or similar which should be subsidised by the government.Is it possible to cheat on your driving permit test? If so how?
I agree with BoyRacer/Do you think the 60mph UK national speed limit is too high on non trunk routes ?
well, it is in my country, which is in european unionIs a seat belt usefull for a motocycle?
If not it should certainly be a part of driving lessons as it's ridiculous that people can pass their driving test then head out onto them on their own with no formal training or experience of driving on themAdditional to ? re front seat and air bags my son is 32kg(64lbs) and 152cm (5ft)?
Motorway driving lessons and examination should be mandatory within a time limit of passing a standard driving test, possibly as part of the Pass Plus Test.It would be difficult for many to have access to a motorway. I had been driving for about 2 years before I went on a motorway because the nearest one was about 100 miles from where I lived.
If a pre 1983 car is fitted with seat belts does driver have to wear them under current rules?
yes and nightime drivingit may educate people that there is a proper way to drive on the motorway and that the outside lanes are for overtaking and not personal use nightime driving would show new drivers the dangers that poses also the correct use of main beam lights
What are the four reasons of fire accidents ?
yes as the motorway has different rules to the rest of the roads and then maybe they can stop middle lane hoggers at the outset.let alone the tailgaters and the guys that just sit behind another vehicle for mile after mile with their brains turned off. such bad driving habits and its because everyone has had to make it up as they go along. would help if they read the higway code and then stuck to it. the problem starts with comments like you learn to pass the test then you learn to drive. this psychologically sets every one up to ignore the answers to every question that you need to answer while driving.
Will my license be suspended?!?
I would like to agree with you, but as to how it would be safe to have a learner driver on the motorway would be a feat in itself. Perhaps there could be places set up to simulate a motorway, like the skid pans that the police have to practice on. Or a simulator like the ones at theme parks, then they could have a days course there.Can electric cars will be available on next year will these be safe for journey?
Recently I have noticed that the standard of driving has gone down, with all sorts of stupidity going on, on the roads. I personally think that the drivers are not so much to blame, as the the instructors, and examiners for actually passing some of them. There seems to be a lack of anticipation as to what may be coming around a blind bend, or whether anyone is coming the other way, and whether they are going to give way. It appears that there are a lot of people out there with the attitude that it is their road, and anyone that dare tresspass on it, is in for it, with agression. So yes learner drivers do need more tuition, but so do the tutors.
What could cause a vehicle to spontaneously burst into flames?
In an ideal world, I reckon it should be compulsory but only after "normal" competence has been proved - i.e. a two-part practical test. It's a totally different world from the roads a learner is used to.Unfortunately it would be totally impracticable, a surprising number of us live a long,long way from a motorway.
Are 15 seat vans difficult to drive?
JUST WHAT THE HELL IS A MOTORWAY???:)Does anyone know why would my trailors electic breaks would lock as soon as I was in motion?
Of course! Since you are allowed on the Motorway once you've passed your test, it should rather obviously be part of the test.In all honesty, Motorways are much safer than the typical dual carriageway (for example, the A-1 north of London!) and there's no restriction there even with L plates. Pretty stupid, in my opinion.
No, the conditions are much too dangerous and daunting for anyone to go onto the Motorway with L Plates on, even if it is a short period towards their test. Motorway driving has an unseen effect on most drivers, they turn into a more ruthless band of people.
Once the person has passed basic test then yes there should be provision to allow them to take a couple of extra lessons with an advanced qualified instructor to go on to the Motorway and more advanced driving.
What happens to people in a convertible when it rolls?
I am not sure having learner drivers on a motorway would be a good idea!It would be a good idea to educate them on popular motorway driving protocols and forward planning instead of the rubbish they are told by the DVLA and forget as soon as they pass the test!
An educational video narrated by an experience long haul lorry driver describing his hazzard perceptions like what he is looking for and responding to while driving on a motorway in a truck and a car would save a lot of accidents!
What is the minimum distance a person may store a vehicle near a residential natural gas line?
I don't think it should be.Does anyone know how to find reports of traffic accidents in Oklahoma City, OK?
I am actually having a Motorway driving lesson next week, I passed my test 4 months ago and now I think its a good time to learn how to drive on the motorway.
Can anyone give me information on lomas ambulances in the 1960's?
When you have passed your driving test you are still 'learning how to drive'. I was so nervous the first time I drove by my self after passing my test. It took a few months for me to become confident with driving on the road. In that time I have also gotten accustom to driving on A road in different conditions (i.e. heavy traffic, slow moving, icy road conditions).
How do i get over my fear of driving?
Now that I have had that road experience I think I am ready to go on the motorway and not worry that I will not be able to handle the situation. It would be dangerous and inconvenience to other road users to let learners on the motorway when they have not had enough experience.
Why do I get disrespect when I drive my Beemer?
absolutely not , i think anyone who passed their test should be given free lessons on the motor way , , caravan drivers should also be scrutinised, they are awful.Why DO drivers speed excessively?
No. Moterways have the least amount of accidents on them and are proven to be safer to drive on. I think more time should be spent on other pass plus factors though, such as night driving and country lanes.Should a winter driving road test be required?
no, but once you've passed you should be made to have a few advanced lessons so that your taught how to get on,off and how to change lanes safelyCan someone find out who you are by your license plate?
yes as so many people have absolutely no idea how to use the motorway.i'm sick of people sitting in the middle lane overtaking nothing.
maybe if people were taught how to use the motorway instead of teaching themselves there would be less idiots making me get road rage.
Yes, definitely. Motorway driving is a completely different driving experience to urban driving that involves different skills, driving techniques and even different rules. (eg minimum speed)
It should be compulsory before someone takes their test to have several hours motorway driving under their belt. Maybe this will help reduce motorway accidents and middle lane drivers.
Did Costco lose a big verdict around 2000 for installing front tires instead of rear tires?
Yes, in a multistage test,Night driving should come in after basic control is achieved,
followed by heavy traffic lessons.
Trailer and caravan towing are also special skills
How much pressure do you inflate your tires?
I THINK IT SHOULD AS LONG AS THE DRIVER LEARNING HAS HAD A FEW LESSONS ON MINOR ROADS AND DUAL CARRIAGEWAYSyes
How do you put a car seat on a shopping cart? Which direction?
No, because as it would be rather dangerous seeing as learner drivers currently aren't allowed on the motorway + not everyone has easy access to a motorway to be tested on.... like here in Whitby the nearest stretch of motorway is the A1(M) just to the West of Darlington (40miles if you take an "as the crow flies" measurement on Google Earth), which is much too far to go in the time limit for a driving test I believe.... I takes about an hour just go along the A171 road over the Moors and get as far as the bit of Middlesbrough where Middlesbrough General hospital + Ayrsome Park football Stadium used to stand.While the next nearest, I believe, is a stretch of A1(M) in between where York & Harrogate is (and it takes the Yorkshire Coastliner Bus 2hrs just to get as far as the Stonebow in York City centre).
Check points, do you think the excuse is the real reason? Seat belts r the reason of the day today.?
+ I found out the last time I could afford to learn to drive, that magnetic L plates tend to part company with the car above 50mph unless you stick them down with electrical insulation tape.
If you double your speed when driving, how much does your braking distance increase ?
I was hoping that a simple Yes! would suffice but the answers there already lead me tot think that this debate is not as simple as it first seams. A yes would mean learner drivers on motorways, a no more bad motorway drivers. Maybe the answer is a separate motorway test after you have passed the 'road' and theory tests..... and you cant drive at all on motorways until you passed the 1st two.What is new law about driving lessons and when does it come into force?
Glad that's sorted now.
If i put a seat and seat belts in the bed of my truck is it legal?
definitely, because there so many people on them that don't know what they are doingHow can we reduce the dangers of driving on the congested roads of the united states?
The reason given by the government as to why motorway driving is not included in the test is that in certain areas of the UK there are no motorways?I think that given the danger of allowing new driver to drive on motorways it is essential that motorway driving becomes compulsory.
If you unfortunately live in an area of the UK (Small island in the north sea) then you will either have a restricted license or you will need to travel to an area that has motorways to do you test.
there is a good case for it as compulsory training after passing a driving test. The problem is that not everyone lives within easy distance of a motorway
Learning to drive! I forgot what comes first when you stop?
Yes definately, it would certainly cut down the accidents that happen on moroways, some people just don't understand that the outside lane isn't just for lorries, and that the other lanes are for overtaking, I'm sure some drivers out there pick a lane and then just stay in that lane what ever speed they are travelling at! I used to travel down to London on the M1 from Northampton and the amount of drivers who used to pick a lane and stay in that lane was unbelievable!Seatbelt problems in 02 Yukon?
It should be part of the driving test and lessons.When you have passed your test you won't have a clue how to drive correctly on a motorway,if you get used to it when you learning to drive then it would make it alot easier for new drivers to understand the motorway.Its a terrifing experience when you first drive on a motorway so yes I think it should be taught!
I think its a stupid question, a driving test is a driving test, you pass, then, you are a qualified driver, why f**** things up. You would have more people breaking the law by being on the motorways when they shouldn't. that would mean more motoring laws and more ways of getting money from drivers. I'm a non driver, never have been, so you will excuse me if I'm missing something.
