Worried about driving standards

[cw42]

My neighbour has recently passed his driving test, and got himself and the family a nice little black polo run around. I've been informed that he's now taking his daughter out with L plates on, which can't be right.
According to this: http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Motoring/LearnerAndNew...
he should hold his full licence for 3 years before being able to take anyone out for tuition, is that correct?

Yes that is correct. Please tell him so, as it could be a mistake costly in more than one way if he comes unstuck.

Cheers

Cheers I'll let him know

Particularly if they have a prang and the insurance refuse to pay out on his new motor.

He's passed his test, he must know everything.

He's in his forties, he's been walking and using public transport up till this point!

She's only 17, and a recipe for a car crash if ever I saw one, party girl, always drunk at the weekend, gobshite!

Further to the story. It turns out my informant (we're a close neighbourhood) saw this chap with his daughter in the car, but he was only showing her the controls, he wasn't actually driving. He hasn't passed his test yet, he's been learning for 17 months! and is aware of the 3 year rule.
So that's a relief
