Greg Smith

Conservative — Mid Buckinghamshire

Speaking in the House of Commons on 28 January 2025

Debate

Road Safety: Young Drivers

Contribution

I have limited time, but I am happy to take up the debate afterwards. What if the path that a young person wants to go down requires them to be able to drive a car at night? There have to be answers to these questions. I gently say to all hon. Members here this morning, including the Minister, that a driving licence must be equal for everybody, and that we must look most of all at how we can improve our confidence that everybody who is issued with one can control a vehicle in all circumstances, in all conditions and on all road types. That will involve a significant change, which will improve road safety for everybody.
