You should have to retake your driving test every 10 years. Would cut bad driving habits and keep people up to date with Highway Code changes. The demand for tests would create more jobs. The inevitable number of failures would force investment in better public transport.

The attached ‘road crime reporting’ recommendations were previously (some years ago) circulated to all Police Forces within England and Wales. I stand by them as a means to ensure consistency and improve service. I share the frustration when service ‘so often’ does not match the principles outlined.
