To ride a scooter/moped all you need as provisional licence and a cbt certificate and you can ride upto a 125cc machine. Why can't I drive a small powered car like a smart car on a provisional? surley a scooter is more dangerous than a car? and why isnt there many low powered cars out there?

It's just the law I'm afraid. I'm lucky I've only got a provisional but have a stay at home partner with a full license so I get to drive all the time with him at my side. I've had about 2 years experience doing that so just haven't bothered putting in for my test yet. It costs too bloomin much!! Especially with the other written test(can't remember what it's called) you got to take now to. Wish I'd done it a few years ago when you didn't have to do the two tests, just the driving test!

because you cant have instuction on a moped but you can in a car and a car is bigger and heavier than some little half cycle. Why is a scooter more dagerous than a car ? I never heard of someone getting run over by a scooter and dying but I have heard of lots getting killed by cars. You going to be some young person that gets a car and tears all over the place because you think you are safe, and F*** everyone else.

at 16 you may get your provisional license, to journey as a lot as a 50cc you're required to do a CBT, it really is a sometime route and is not an exam, yet more desirable of a lesson. this isn't a bike license that's basically the regular preparation required to confirm a thanks to journey a bike. you is basically not allowed on the twin carriageway's, you'll choose complete sized L plates (£60 fantastic for plates that were reduce down) coverage, and tax. to be completely honest with you "pill popper" i imagine your nonetheless to youthful to even imagine about it, you cant even spell! you do not even comprehend the very effortless regulations of the line, your gonna get your self damage or worse, damage some different person! enable me recognize in case you do commence driving so i can get off the roads!

because that is the law of the land , i was lucky i was born when there was not many cars on the road , but this is my personal view that young people should not have a license to drive until they are 21 what they should have is a place where people can learn to drive in a controlled and safe conditions, with hazards put on them for them to realise what is out there on the roads , not only are there more cars on the road now there are also more pedestrian ., there are more cars also parked on the road which blocks the view of the driver and pedestrian children do not see danger and run out in the small gaps that car leave between them also people park there cars half on and half of the pavement . blocking the walk ways meant for pedestrian, causing people with prams to have to use the roads instead of the proper place designed for them
i know what you are thinking now that i am some old fuddy duddy , i am but i was like you once and thought the same as you are thinking now , the trouble is you will come to realise that what i am saying now is right as you will be doing the same as me when you get older, i suppose that you will not take this advice as know know better , but the mistakes that you make on your way to getting older and sensible are not to bad. one off the first things that you will defiantly do when you get your first car you will look for a pace where you will want to find out how fast your new car will go , been there done it sorry for sounding to hard on you hope that you are luck enogh to reach my age as some of the youngsters are not going to make it and i hope you are not one of them take care remember you are a long time dead

Because there's nowhere for anyone else to sit. And no, a scooter isn't more dangerous than a car. Not to other road users, anyway, which is the reason for the law - to protect others.

You can drive on a provisional - as a learner until you pass
