There now follows a party political broadcast on behalf of the “just passed their driving test” party.

You know what, we here in our small group get it, the frustrations of you, the seasoned road user.

There you are trying to get from A to B as quickly and as efficiently as possible when out of nowhere you find yourself getting held up by some numbskull that shouldn’t be left in charge of four wheels and an engine if they are going to make quite such a Michelin 5 star rated meal out of using their vehicle.

After all they’ve been awarded the hallowed certificate so they should know what they’re doing, shouldn’t they?

It is decreed somewhere is it not, the sacred first edition of the Highway Code maybe, that once a driver leaves the test centre with a pass tucked neatly beneath their correctly fastened safety belt they are in fact now a Jedi master in the ways of the motor car and those who choose to use it.

But the thing is while some take to their new life of freedom like the proverbial duck to water , there are those for whom  the transition from dual controlled journeys with a wingman to cover your back if you find yourself getting into difficulty to flying solo is rather a daunting prospect to say the least .

They ,unlike their boy racer counterparts ,shudder at the thought of being to blame for delaying everyone behind them if they should stall or falter at traffic lights or on a hill start because they so want to live up to the hype that being in charge of their own automobile has bestowed upon them .

They let every little mistake get the better of them , take it to heart and wonder if maybe they should go back to the examiner and demand a recount because they think maybe there may have been some kind of mix up or a mistake .

So we urge those of you who do know it all on the road to please give some consideration when you next find yourself stuck behind someone who looks like they’re having a bit of a nightmare moment behind the steering wheel .

Some of us identify ourselves by way of the green P plate , the P actually stands for probationary to show other drivers that you haven’t had much experience on the roads but we’d also like to give it its own little life motto and ask you to kindly to ;

Please be Patient while we Persevere.
