Road Safety

I am grateful for the intervention and I take the hon. Gentleman's point, but whatever the subject that we might discuss, and on this subject, whatever stage one is at individually, one can always improve one's skills, and I do not see why that should apply any less to younger people than it might to people of our age group. When we get to a point in life at which we think that we can no longer improve, whether on our reaction times or on our skills in any sense, that is a pretty poor lookout. We should still aim to improve our skills. It is not the key to, or the only part of, the problem, but it plays a part and it is worthy of attention.
