I am not pressing the amendment but there is evidence that many of these conveyances are being used by very young people in a dangerous fashion and are being supplied by parents, guardians or older friends. It makes sense to me that it would be an offence to supply such a vehicle to younger people for real reasons of safety, notwithstanding that it may be something that is very difficult to police. The very fact of it being in the legislation would act as a significant deterrent.
