[UK-CONTEST] Foundation Licence

[Callum M0MCX]

Sent to Dave earlier today and submitted here with his encouragement:

As an early M3 candidate myself, I accelerated to a full license in 9
months. It soon became apparent that there were M3s on the bands that had no
concern at all for furthering their experiences or technical progression.

In my mind, the motorcycle laws paralleled the M3 licenses quite well, you
started with L plates and progressed to a full license. If you remember, you
can only drive on L plates for a set amount of time before the license ran
out. You HAD to take a full! Why can't we do that for M3s? You have a 24 or
36 month window to progress, or lose it? 

I teach foundation and many of the young chaps I've had through the course
are dead keen to progress. They want rid of their L plates.

What this would do to the stats / enthusiasm, I haven't a clue - but I
believe it needs a "tweak".
