Would compulsory training after a driving test reduce the likelihood of people having accidents on the road? A boy racer will still feel invincible after he had passed both the normal driving test and the Pass Plus, possibly even more invincible and take greater risks.
Emphasis on driving being a continually learning experience and cheaper access to voluntary scheme such as the Pass Plus and the school of Advanced Motorists training and Assessment schemes may produce better results.

Valid point - it is hard know what route is best. I just think that the people most in need of extra training are least likely to take it up on a voluntary basis.
