We all passed first time at 17 as we'd been driving for years. 
 
If young people had the chance to learn at a younger age off road they would definitely be better once they were legal. 
Unfortunately most teenagers will never get that chance.

 My father taught me to drive on our Caravan site and I thought I would pass my test first time.
But I'm ashamed to admit it took me 4 attempts to pass as I had picked up many bad habits. But now I am a pretty good driver, well at least my children think so.
Now Parking....well that's a different matter
