In the new year, 16-year-olds will be able to legally drive some cars on the UK's roads. A new category of moped licence is being introduced on 19 January 2013. It will allow people aged 16 and over to drive so-called 'light quadricycles'. Already popular in many European countries, the vehicles look and drive like a car, but are no more powerful than a moped and aren't allowed to go faster than 28mph (45km/h).
