As someone who is taking their CBT next week, I am sure I will not feel safe on the road until I have obtained my full licence. I sat on my partners Blackbird last night - how heavy is that??!! Wan't a good move for my confidence - was convinced I would just fall off and get squashed. I also agree the same thing type of thing should exist for new car drivers. And another thing, those 'P' plates are a stupid idea - you can keep them on as long as you like and it just gives them the right to behave like they are new to driving whilst making everyone else's life a misery on the roads.
