DS1 is 16 and needs to get around, quite locally for part time job & evening sports. Buses round here are a real joke.
A scooter would make much more independance but scary thoughts about bad drivers (my younger brother has had 2 quite big accidents both not his fault - last one just got cleared through coronors court but his bike was smashed up again and time off work etc.
Would be glad not to have to be a taxi service but not sure on safety, he is a sensible lad and of course would do all the training etc.
Or do we wait a year and get car lessons sorted (that also has its own potential issues, car shares etc etc)
