    I can't imagine the R plate idea being passed. The last thing we need is another bunch of drivers limited to a lower speed clogging up our roads. If irish drivers had a shred of common decency to each other, then it would be a useful idea.

    As it stands, it's ridiculous.

    Who's generalising now?

    Point accepted, however I was referring more to the fact that once you're 17, you're fast tracked by your parents or your mates to get driving as soon as possible. Perhaps that's a generalisation of the country, however its certainly true of my area where most of the 17-18 years olds I know of are at least learning to drive, if not driving already.
