Allow provisional learner drivers to continue practice driving through lockdown
Learner drivers have had lessons and tests cancelled, we should at least be able to continue to learn to drive during these times even if it is just with our parents/guardians. We should be allowed to continue to drive and learn.
Already this year we have had so much cancelled for us, we are unable to go to school or see our friends and now we are unable to learn to drive with our parents/guardians. I think this will have a huge impact on many many people and also have an impact on mental health as well. If we can not learn to drive then driving tests will have to be cancelled too.
