Young Driver – an organisation that offers driving experiences for children aged 11 and over – has launched a petition to introduce both theoretical and practical driving knowledge into the school curriculum.

It doesn’t matter whether you’re a new driver or have plenty of on-the-road experience – the truth is that driving is becoming more and more costly. From insurance to road tax – and all the little extras in between – it can be expensive to maintain a vehicle. That’s why so many people are grabbing bargains when they find them, most notably in the form of used cars. The used car market has grown by nearly 6 percent in the past year alone, and it’s reported that around three quarters of car shoppers are now choosing used cars over new cars in a bid to reduce the high costs of driving.
