Ok I'll give you my law Immeditetly restict all provisional drivers to a maximum of 1 passenger under 25yrs of age, excluding immediate family members carrying appropriate ID. Enything outside of this a finable offence. Simple to implement, easy to enforce, and I guarantee it would save a lot of lives.

And your grounding for this idea is what? Peer pressure, and distractions?! Firstly, which is better- one car with five passengers, or five cars in convoy? Secondly, your theory (thoroughly grounded in psychology, I'm sure) assumes every passenger is an uncontrollable hoon. I don't drink, so most times I go out, I come back with a full vehicle of people incapable of driving. I actually think people are more likely to hoon by themselves or with one passenger, as most `hoons' prefer to drive their own wheels.
You have to understand that a great deal of `P platers' aren't children, they're legally responsible adults, over eighteen. Since we're blindly restricting adults `for their own good', lets ban the sale of cigarettes to anyone over forty. By then, they're at higher risk of damaging their health than someone younger who smokes, and I mean, if they haven't kicked the habit by then... :P
Yaw: Even if you replaced it with a panel filter (shown not to increase power but cheaper in the long run)?
