thing, like Mr Weasley's car and flying carpets? I'd assume that 
wizards do need to drive (ministry cars) so they would probably 
have licenses, and the age for driving would probably be the UK one, 
which is 17 I think. That's when my brother started learning.

I think that's a good point to make, Vik.  When the Weasleys had 
the Ford Anglia, they weren't supposed to fly it as it would be a 
violation under the Use of Muggle Artifacts.  How does Sirius get 
away with this?
