Driver licensing network wants driving education in schools

From Morning Report, 8:57 am on 21 March 2023

A driver licensing network is calling for cross party support to make driving education available in all high schools.

Only five percent of students leave high school with a full license, and The Driving Change Network says that's down to an inaccessible licensing system.

It says the status quo gives an advantage to young people with available cars and people to teach them.

The network's chair Joe Graham spoke to Kim Hill.
