A major review of the motor bike L-test has now been ordered after Labour built the super centres to comply with a 'bizarre' EU metric rule.
An EU directive ordered that L-test manoeuvres - such as the emergency stop or avoiding an obstacle - must be carried out at speeds of 50 kilometres per hour.
But 50kph is 31.2 miles per hour - an illegal speed on the 30mph roads usually used by learner motorcyclists.
And the Driving Standards Agency concluded doing the manoeuvres on 40mph roads would be too dangerous.'
I despair! Coconuts are called for!
