You'd be surprised how many people don't. I only have about three 17 year old pupils. The Majority are over 20.

Do you live in London?
When I grew up in Donny, everybody (and I mean everybody) learned to drive as soon as they hit seventeen.
My missus on the other hand, grew up in London where they had good public transport, so there was no need to drive.

I'm in Glasgow. Though I'm from a small village to the north. Me, and most of my friends learned when we were 17. You had to really, there was only one bus to Glasgow that took over an hour, despite it only being a 30 min drive. I'm fairly sure it only ran during leap years, on days that start with the letter "Q".

Congratulations Chris. I learnt when I turned 18, I couldn't afford to when I was 17...I was lucky enough to pass my test first time, four days before buggering off to uni  Funnily enough, my girlfriend passed her test on the same day as me!

There's no specific law about it as far as I'm aware. However, I suspect if you were spotted by the police they'd pull you over. If they decided your masks impaired your vision, you could be in trouble.

Well done Chris! Remember, the tears on Mother Earth's face are because YOU are burning her precious oil. Yes, YOU. It's all your fault. Welcome, come, join the guilt.
