You may think it's an inconvenience, but it's better to

be safe than dead, or hurt. If you get hurt, it wastes more time.

Canadian researchers tried to untangle the influence of age and experience on crashes involving beginners by dividing drivers 16, 17, and 18 years old according to whether they had been driving less than a year or more than a year. The main finding, reported in 1992, is that 16 year-olds, especially girls this age, had higher rates of injury crashes than older teenagers who also were new to the road.

Yes, but when they are older, they will have more consequences with the law.

Most colleges don't allow vehicles on campus. Most campus's only allow you to walk or bike.

When they are older, they will be more cautious because they can get in more trouble with the law.

When you are older, you are wiser, and that makes you more mature. When you have to wait to get your license, you gain more maturity.

Raising the driving age would help everyone. With our technology advancing, we are getting more and more safer cars. But having safer cars doesn't make drivers safer. In fact, it may make drivers more reckless because they think having a safer car will save them when they are being careless.

Between 1995- 2004 there were 30,917 fatalities in accidents involving 15-17 year old's. 1/3 of the deaths are the teenage drivers.

Would your parents rather drive you around, or not have you around at all? Parents would rather drive their kids around, then have them get in a accident and die.

Although that may be true, I disagree. If you raise the driving age, teenagers will be more responsible, and more mature

I believe the driving age should be raised because sixteen year old's are simply not responsible enough. If they start at a older age, they will be more cautious and responsible on the road.
