Consultation launched on introducing a Minimum Learning Period

As part of the government’s Road Safety Strategy, the Department for Transport (DfT) is consulting on introducing a 3 or 6 month Minimum Learning Period (MLP) for learner drivers. This will include introducing: 

  • a minimum amount of time to be spent learning and a minimum number of learning hours

  • a mandated learning syllabus and how this learning can be conducted

These changes would only apply to the practical test for cars.
