Our daughter Chantelle was killed in a car incident. The driver of the vehicle in which Chantelle was a passenger was a new driver who had 9 penalty points on his provisional licence for speeding when he gained his full licence two months before her death. We feel that his provisional licence should have been revoked when he had gained 6 points on his provisional licence because this suggests that he was a potential danger and should not have been allowed to take a full test until all points had been removed after three years.

I am currently compiling the stories many of you have shared about reckless driving. Send an email to your local representative today and demand they review the licensing rules for new drivers. We need to keep pressure on the transport committee until they agree to meet with us.

9 points before even passing is a huge red flag. The system is flawed and kids are dying because of it. Fix this now.

Heartbreaking story. Why on earth are they allowed to carry passengers so soon after getting a license? Something needs to change.

So sorry for your loss. No one should have to go through this. We need to stop these reckless drivers before they get a full license.

Too many people think the road is a racetrack. Need stricter rules for new drivers. Disgraceful that it takes a tragedy to start talking about this.

6 points should be the limit for everyone period. Keep them off the road until they learn some responsibility.

Completely agree. My thoughts are with the family. This law is outdated and dangerous for everyone on the road.
