DONT Raise Legal Driving Age In N.Ireland

To:  Tony Blair

It has been rumoured here in Northern Ireland that the legal driving age is being considered to be raised from 17 to 21. I would like to get a lot of signatures on this list to prevent the authorities from changing the legal driving age in Northern Ireland and to persuade them to think of other ways in reducing the death & accident toll within Northern Ireland. E.G. Curfew for driving late in ridiculous hours for “R” plate users or even physically restricting (implant device in car) for all “R” plate users so that they can only go a certain speed.

There are many middle-aged and old motorists whose driving is equally as poor and dangerous. (In some cases, even worse!) If a young person isn’t allowed to drive until they are 21, then maybe all that would end up doing is deferring the problem for a few years. Perhaps a new driver would turn out to be just as dangerous at 21 as they are at 17? Who knows for sure?

Sincerely,

The Undersigned
