REACTION: IAM RoadSmart welcomes the introduction of graduated driver licensing in Northern Ireland

IAM RoadSmart Director of Policy and Standards Nicholas Lyes said: “Evidence from around the world shows that a form of graduated driver licensing can reduce fatal and serious collisions among new drivers. What is particularly pleasing is the announcement emphasises the need for younger drivers to develop essential skills on their journey to a full licence. While some new drivers in Northern Ireland may have reservations, they may yet benefit not only from being safer road users, but they could also look forward to cheaper insurance premiums.”
