A view more practical training for drivers will be essential, with the full licence test in the rear-view mirror. 

After passing the restricted licence test, drivers under the age of 25 will have to wait out a mandatory 12-month period before they can apply for a full licence.  

Those aged over 25 will have to wait six months.  

Institute of Driver Educators President Mark Revill-Johnson told Ryan Bridge it's important to get training all the way to a full licence. 

He says lots of people fail that test for things like speeding and failing to follow stop and give way signs.
