Offence in the first year of driving
Dear Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency,
I would like to enquire about the statistics or driving offences that occur in someone's first year of holding a driving licence.
I would appreciate if this data could contain age, offence, location, whether this resulted in the person losing their licence and how many points were received.
Yours faithfully,
T Lodge

Dear T Lodge
Before we can proceed with your request for information could you clarify the following:
When you are asking about offences in someone's first year of holding a driving licence, are you referring to the first year after obtaining their provisional driving licence, or the first year after obtaining their first full driving licence (following passing a driving test).
If we do not receive a response from you within three months we will assume you no longer wish to proceed with your request,
Regards
Ian Davies
