For the first time, I am talking about driving tests but not any driving test. This one involves the Queen of Rock 'n' Roll – Suzi Quatro – who has been on the road, and on the roads for almost 60 years. This year, though she was told she must take a British driving test. Susie has also become a British national. And Tonight she is playing the London Palladium. This podcast is free, as is Independent Travel's weekly newsletter.
