    Was just reading up on the whole new L legislation for a laugh.

    http://www.independent.ie/national-news/how-the-law-will-put-brakes-on--ldrivers-1203968.html

    and came accross this "The accompanying driver must carry their driving licence. Failure to comply will be a penalty point offence for the accompanying driver"


    So lets say I have mates who have not bothered getting their arse into gear and have not gotten or even applied for a full licence yet, thats not my business and if they risk driving around so be it ... Now ... if im in my mates car as a passanger and he gets stopped at a checkpoint , youre telling me ill get a point for not having my licence on me even though im a passeneger!!!!" (i keep my licence in my own car at all time)

    Thats F***g ridiculous

    There are some problems with the new legislation like what you pointed out, but I'm glad they're bringing it in. Gets all the people happy to drive on provisionals all their lives actually looking to doing a driving test instead of getting out of it. It'll make our roads safer in the long run i think.
