The thing that worried me when I passed my test five years ago is that I'm physically not strong enough to do even basic stuff, that is, if I had any knowledge of how a car works. I seriously think that all drivers should have to take some kind of basic car maintenance course before they even get near a test. I know there are theory test questions, but learning for a multiguess test isn't enough. If I had my way, I really would make it compulsory to have a minimum number of hours driving experience, evidence of a working knowledge of car mechanics and evidence of driving at night and in various weather conditions. It's inexperience that causes most danger.
