I voted No due to when i was 18 like most young lads today i was a boy racer bombing round the country at speeds god only knows how i,m still here.My point is i think you should give young lads the chance to be young lads get all the agression and boy racer stage out of there system before even think of giving em a 44tonne killing machine.I do think that they should have to get there license through about a 3 year training period so by 21 its a full hgv 1 license once they been with fully qualified drivers who they can watch and be taught the job from a day to day persective.
I,m now 32 still only young and once i got into my 20,s i slowed down and plus i became a dad which really brought it all home, that theres kids in cars we are all driving behind etc out on the roads,to be honest i really wouldnt like to think an 18 year old was driving a artic when my wife and children was out driving too,but thats just my take on things.
