The alcohol or drugs make their reactions slower than normal making them more prone to fatal car crashes. The best way to avoid drinking and driving is not to drink at all. It’s illegal since teens are underage. This isn’t the case though, so the best way to avoid hurting yourself or others is to have cab fare on you. The other options are to…

The survey was given through SurveyMonkey to investigate which age groups text more frequently while driving, and what these drivers’ driving habits and styles were. After gaining a better understanding of the driver’s demographics regarding their texting and driving habits, a driving simulation experiment was conducted.

Getting my driver’s license was an accomplishment of my own and I’m proud to say that I accomplished my goal. When I was 17 I got my license and there were many obstacles I faced during the process of getting my permit and then later on getting my license. The first step I had to take was being enrolled in a student driver’s course where I had to complete 30 hours of classroom instruction and 8 hours of behind-the-wheel instruction. (“Louisiana Teen Drivers Guide”) The law in the state of…

I am going to talk to you about why older drivers should have restrictions. Australia is an ageing population and as you can see from this graph people are living longer, this means that there are lots of older drivers on our roads. A study in Queensland found that the accidents caused by older drivers could be due to a range of age-related declines like deterioration in sensory, cognitive and motor abilities, medical and neurological conditions. As you can see on this graph, due to this decline…

As teenagers we seem to think we are invincible, which causes us to underestimate how short life actually is. We never think anything detrimental will happen to us, how naive we are.

The truth of the matter is that we have all picked up our phone while driving and read a text message or checked a notification.…

Schoenfeld had received his driver’s license only two weeks before the crash. This teen’s reckless driving and immaturity killed three people (“Teen Driving”).

Having even stricter laws may not hurt drivers in Indiana either. License suspensions should be longer. If someone is drinking and driving, their tendencies are not just going to go away with a snap. If a driver gets let off with a suspension on their license for just 180 days, that same driver may decide that the consequences are not too serious, and just go ahead and drink and drive again. If a driver got their license suspended for at least a year, they would have time to think about what…

I can remember the day I received my first car, It was six months after my sixteenth birthday, and I had already managed to somehow acquire my drivers license. It was April, the flowers were blooming, the weather had changed from bitter cold, to a warm and inviting temperature. I had just gotten home from school and my dad shouts, “Micaiah, let’s go check out some cars.” My heart was exploding with excitement, the thought of me actually being able to have a car of my own was the best news so far…
