in order to prepare myself to obtain a permit. Shortly after I was behind the wheel practicing daily with my father. The day came where I would take my behind the wheel test.

This held me back from driving for over a year until I could save up enough. Finding a job without work experience was tough. Luckily for me my parent’s manager of a flower warehouse…

Drunk driving is a serious issue in today's society, even with the age being 21. So, the age should not be lowered. The National Traffic Highway Administration (NHTSA) states “the 21 minimum drinking age law has saved about 900 lives per year”. If this was to be changed to a lower drinking age, the crash related alcohol rates would increase. Alcohol-related traffic deaths in the United States was 12,998 in 2007, and increasing dramatically as time goes on. This statistic is three times as many…

Currently we start driving before the brain is even halfway developed. This is highly unsafe and it show in the statistics. By increasing the driving age…

Why the driving age should not be raised Driving is a big art of maturing and growing as an individual. State governments are pushing for the driving age to be raised to eighteen, but there is no reason for this. Sixteen year olds are naturally capable to drive with their senses being heightened as they are younger. Generally, sixteen year olds are unfairly judged as irresponsible and not attentive enough to drive. They also need access to driving in order to get around, and it makes no sense…

Should 16 year olds really be allowed to drive or should we raise the driving age to 18? I personally think the driving age should be raised to 18 and here are some of my reasons why. ( 18 being the driving age, statistics, maturity, ) For my first reason 18 should be the driving age I will tell more as you read on but to start I want to tell more on why 18 would be the best driving age.

Becoming a teen comes with a lot of desires and needs. One major desire when becoming a teen and going into high school is to get your license, but unfortunately, you have to wait a couple of years to be able to legally drive.
