Petition To lower the legal driving age to16 in the UK

I would like to lower the legal driving age to 16 as at this age you can take on many adult responsibilities such as paying tax, join the army, leave home, pay adult tickets on public transport.

More details

The Australian process of learning to drive is three fold where learners are required to log their driving experience throughout the learning. Young adults must display the relevant 'P' plates to show the stages of learning they are at such as Red P plates to green P plates to full license.
