HC Deb 01 December 1982 vol 33 c198W
44. Mr. Sheerman

asked the Secretary of State for Transport why moped riders are excluded from taking the new two-part motor cycle test.

Mrs. Chalker

I want to do everything possible to encourage moped riders to take training and pass their test. But the basic differences between mopeds and motor cycles rule out a common test for riders of both.
