it shudnt be that hard to repair will probs need a new steering rack, lower arm etc and if you hit it full on then maybe a hub aswell but theyre like inch and a half thick..thats my opinion anyway good luck | |

I'm 19, and think that the driving age is ok. Nothing will stop a new driver seeing how fast a car can go etc :lol: | |

Young drivers just need to learn they're not invincible or Colin McRae. More of them than not round here tear around everywhere, at dangerous speeds and/or far too close to the car in front. Most of them are the same badgers I saw doing the same on their mopeds a year ago. I understand why young drivers pay through the teeth for insurance, and do agree that they need to have more experience before they're let loose on their own. I'm all for making the driving age 18, hopefully that year will allow them to mature a little bit. Having said that, a couple of my friends are still like this, despite being several years older. They seem to have the impression that driving everywhere as fast as they can is cool, and means they're a better driver. One of them's had six accidents, two of which were write offs, and another's had several minor accidents and countless near misses. | |

I think what would be good is if they sent kids on courses on driving hard / controlling a car that's getting out of control. | |

if they put the driving age up 18 year olds will be desperate to get on the road as they have had to wait that extra year . . resulting probably in more speeding as they had to wait! | |

The theory test has gone up, but still, will it make any difference to anything? doubt it. | |

This is the reason why the driving age should be 18 and everyone should have to pass an advanced driving course. | |
