Being a young driver myself I dont believe putting power restrictions on us would help. As already said you can drive a 1.1l like a plank and kill people. Unless your dad has business fleet insurence the chance of getting much past a 1.4 are slim.

I think a better option would be to educate younger drivers about the consequences of crashing and have better lessons. I had ten hour lessons and all I did was drive around my local town, taught me nothing really.

If you young and want to own a Scooby, BMW, Skyline etc driving carefully and claim free for a few years is the only way.
