What do youse think about the #Graduated #DrivingLicence ? I keep seeing calls for this in #Britain - usually from bereaved #parents who have lost #teenage / #YoungAdult offspring in road traffic #collisions

I'm conflicted about the concept (and govt has 0 plans to introduce it) -it would make things difficult for both young #UK
citizens and new UK arrivals in #Health and #SocialCare who often have to drive at night/with passengers, and enforcement would require a lot of resources / #surveillance

Might as well just deploy more Roads Policing and neighbourhood officers to enforce existing laws - in my youth there was often a bobby around who would have words with the leadfooted and/or those who don't correctly maintain their #vehicles which did act as some deterrent.. #RoadSafety

And #4: It is also understandable to care about money

More important reminders for grads:

I'm watching a #Vtuber who was "#graduated" (#fired) streaming under a new #avatar and it is REALLY weird.

I keep wondering why the purple haired, heterochromatic #AsianCanadian suddenly looks like a blue eyed blonde.

In 4 decades before #Innu took over, about 30 #students in two Innu communities in #Labrador finished #HighSchool said Kanani Davis, chief executive of #MamuTshishkutamashutau Innu #Education - the Innu #SchoolBoard . Since then, more than 150 students have #graduated from the schools in #Sheshatshiu & #Natuashish Davis said.

Their two-year #NipissingUniversity course also lets students complete their training in their own communities.
