"The Rann Government is moving to further strengthen the Graduated Licensing Scheme (GLS) for young drivers in South Australia. Premier Mike Rann says despite the record low road toll in 2008, too many young South Australian drivers are still dying on our roads. “On average, 27 percent of all fatalities in SA each year are road users aged between 16 and 24,” Mr Rann said. “The new initiatives include legislating to increase the supervised driving time required by Learner drivers from 50 hours to 75 hours. “We also plan to increase the minimum time on a Learner’s permit from 6 to 12 months."
