If you look at the trend over the past twenty years it is actually dropping.
When I was 16 (1986) I bought a moped and rode it home.
Although I did know the highway code as my Mum made me read first, also I had a bit of road sense from doing my cycling proficiency at school (do they still do that ?)
Wouldn't hurt to put a bit of road thery into the old CBT though. Write a letter to VOSA or the DLA suggesting it.
