What would happen for example to the nervous middle aged lady who uses her car to go shopping and would never dream of ever driving on a motorway, should she be made to sit the motorway driving module? If exceptions were made like this how would you enforce it?
You never know when it might come in useful! What if she fancied going shopping in another city for once or wanted to go and see someone? Or even for a day out?

I think its very impractical that new drivers are allowed on the motorway with no training, its letting someone without their provisional on the road straight away.
