HC Deb 20 November 1987 vol 122 c699W
Mr. Burns

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport if he will introduce legislation to impose restrictions on the size of engine of cars and the maximum speeds that can be driven by people in the first 12 months after passing their driving test: and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Peter Bottomley

No. There is no evidence that this would lead to significant road safety benefits and there would he difficulties in enforcing such arrangements.
