Motor Insurance: Motion.
I agree with what other speakers have said about the inclusion of education in driving in the school curriculum. This should be done in a more permanent way in second-level schools, perhaps by using transition year. Senator O'Toole has referred to the driving test in this House. It is ridiculous that the test does not encompass overtaking, probably the most dangerous part of driving. It should be reformed to include an overtaking manoeuvre, the source of many accidents.
