all valid points, but your forgetting not everyone would be able to afford 12 months of extra lessons, the cost of skid pan training, advanced motoring courses, would your government be paying for this? i would doubt it.
Also on point 6, would you not be able to sit a driving test if there was no snow that year?
i know your points were made in a joke and the skill of many of our drivers is very poor, however any extra manditory tests/lessons would punish those who are competent enough to drive, the best way is to make tests more strict on pass marks!
