Foreign language theory test scrapped

FROM TODAY the driving test in the UK must be taken in English or Welsh, after long-standing rules permitting foreign language speakers to sit the test were removed.

But changes that come into effect today were introduced after a consultation showed more than 70% supported the withdrawal of foreign language voiceovers and interpreters.

Cadillac Converj concept

Cadillac surprised the press today when it revealed a new 2+2 concept called the Converj.

After taking it for a spin, the $30,465 base price didn't seem too bad, either.
