Consultation on increasing restrictions for new drivers

Should people get different driving licences based on their experience level?

A public consultation will be launched this summer about introducing graduated licences, putting more restrictions on new drivers with the aim of reducing crashes.

In response to a Tynwald question for written reply from Rushen MHK Juan Watterson, Infrastructure Minister Tim Crookall said government was continuing work on plans to introduce them.

It follows on from a review commissioned by the Department of Infrastructure in 2020, which looked into how phased licences would improve safety on Manx Roads.
