Raising the driving age is just an inconvenience to families with teens. If people raise the driving age who will take teens to games, dances, and to hang out with friends? Says A. J. Rox. Raising the driving age will just make the lives of families with teens even harder. I thought that when you reached the age of 16, had your drivers license, and a car, that having your parents chauffeur you around would be over, I guess all people want to do is add another 2 years for your parental chauffeur. Become a convenience to families with teens fight for keeping the driving age, not an inconvenience.

Inexperience is what has caused death in most car accidents, not age. Studies show that raising the driving age will just create accident-prone 18 year olds instead of 16 year olds. All people are doing is delaying the time until they die says Alex Koroknay-Palicz: National Youth Rights Association.

Right, but if we want to make the roads safer we should just let women drive and make it illegal for men to be behind the wheel because, according to Alex Koroknay-Palicz: National Youth Rights Association, 77% of men are more likely to get into a car accident than women. Making it illegal for men to drive would definitely make the roads safer.

That is just theory, not a fact. Yes it could happen, but is it likely? No.

They say that you should raise the driving age because of the amount of accidents that happen. I disagree because raising the driving age won't prevent the accident, it will just prevent 16 year olds from dying at such a young age. Therefore you shouldn't raise the driving age because it won't help prevent accidents it will just delay the death of children. Also what what is your source? And what highway are you talking about?

Raising the driving age will punish all young drivers for the mistakes of a few people. In the US we live by innocent until proven guilty. Raising the driving age will name teens guilty before they've even been in an accident, or before they've gotten into a car. 77% of men are more likely to kill someone while driving than women. If people want to save lives, make it illegal for men to drive.
