As we continue to lobby the Government to introduce a Graduated Driving License system in the UK in memory of Cumbrian teenager Caitlin Huddleston, we're hearing a little more about how the system will work when it's piloted in Northern Ireland.

Ministers are set to trial elements of the system which would see restrictions placed on newly qualified drivers, such as speed, the number of passengers they can carry and the time of day and night they can drive.

WATCH: Pat Delaney is the Director of Operations in the Driver & Vehicle Agency in Northern Ireland. Pat has responsibility for driver testing, vehicle testing and driver licensing and he also leads the Graduated Driver Licensing project.
