lol you "experienced" guys make me laugh
i agree insurance stats show that young drivers have more accidents but i'm going to stick my neck out and say most of them are probably at low speed - reversing e.t.c
and when you do get a youngster dying in a high speed crash its in the news and high profile because more than likely his 4 mates died with him. peer pressure? most definitely, but as i said in the other split topic a lot of it comes down to attitude and how someone was brought up. not everyone gives into peer pressure.
anyway i drive a 100 miles round trip to uni everyday, and i feel i am MORE THAN competent enough to deal with ANY situation, just as well as you so called "experienced" drivers. i know im not the perfect driver but neither are any of you

Like i said i don't think experience in driving should be defined by how many years you have been driving.
Also when i was 20 i had a ferrari 360 on hire for a mates wedding for a week, was i inexperienced for that car, YES , but was i sensible and learn how to control the power and urge, YES
experience? what a load of old b......
