New EU Directive Allows Greek Teenagers to Attain Driver's License at 14

driver-708The European Union has announced a new directive regarding the age that teenagers receive their driving licenses in each individual member state. According to this directive, teenagers as young as 14 years old will be able to get a driver’s license.
France, has in fact rushed to implement part of this new directive, the clause that focuses on light quadricycles. The new French law, allows people aged 14 who have received the road safety diploma (known in France as BSR) to drive light motor quadricycles. Until recently, the age limit for this permit was 16 years.
Furthermore, the new European Union directive, paves the way for Greece to reduce the maximum age limit for people who can take the legal driving test.
At the moment the age limit for the driving test is 18 and in order to receive their license each individual must attend 21 hours of theoretical courses as well as 25 hours of driving lessons.
