Though 12% of these accidents involved adolescents, should the driving age be raised? Presently the minimum driving age in the United States is 16 years old. Some 16 year olds do lack the maturity and responsibility to drive, but the driving age does not need to be changed and maybe the driving course itself needs to be renewed.…

    If someone-while driving a car-makes bad decisions, is the driver's license to blame? No. If a teen has a fatal accident, does another teen that was not involved have their license suspended? Of course not, but those who think the driving age should be raised, are convinced that a person's age is relevant to this. Those who think this are basing their opinion on teens who have made bad decisions while behind the wheel of a car. They are labeling all teens before any teen drives or has an…

Raising the driving age would decrease the amount of 16 year old drivers killed. It would do nothing to the total amount of teens killed in car wrecks. ( It is unfair to raise the driving…

    Do I think teens at 16 should drive? Yes, I do. I think the age limit should stay the same. I am going to explain why I think we should still have the same age limit. Two boys one day were driving and had a tragic accident. They were both dead at the age 16 and 17. Members at the AAA calculated how many teens have had accidents or died during 1995 and 2004. The number was 30,917. So after that people had protests to change the driving limit to 18. I feel strongly about keeping the limit the…

    I believe people should be able to drive at whatever age they feel like they can non-violently drive. The minimum age should be thirteen, and as long as you’re a teenager, driving tests should be more difficult. Also, instead of just passing, everyone has to get 100%. As long as we know that teens will be unhurt, they can drive. If they drive violently, and won’t drive aware of danger and responsibly, then they shouldn’t be able to drive. I definitely don’t think the minimum age should be raised…

    If someone's friend steals something, does the innocent friend go to jail? No. If someone's classmate gets into a fatal accident, does the unharmed classmate get their license suspended? Of course not. The minimum driving age should stay at 16-years-old because if it is raised, it will only prolong the experience and it will cause an inconvenience for parents. Raising the legal driving age will only prolong the experience for teens. Statistics show that a third of all 16-year-old divers and a…
