License

Being part of the generation who grew up watching Fast and the Furious films has always made me want to drive a car. At that time I knew I still had a while before I could drive, but any chance I got to be in the driver seat I would. My first time I ever got behind the wheel was right after I watch the fast and the furious in 2001. It was during the summer, my mom was washing her car and according to her “I accidently locked myself inside and somehow I managed to turn the car on and started…

Lack of Life With emotions running high and vastly different opinions spanning across the nation, many wonder if the voting age is appropriate and fitting for the nation. The election would not directly affect a 16 year old. At 16 years of age some teenagers simply aren’t responsible enough to make a sensible candidate choice. 16 year olds may not have been subjected to the situations in life that are necessary to pick a candidate. 16 year olds are simply not fit to vote in our presidential…

Driving is a privilege and once an individual have earned their driver license it should be up to the operator of the vehicle to drive safe and make it a priority. In this paper I will discuss the safety of driving in the winter and summer months. There will be different types of weather conditions for both seasons, vehicles will need good mechanical work periodically to check for maintenance for both seasons, and the operator of the vehicle should always operate the vehicle properly and…

drivers are over the age of 55 and this is where the mature driver improvement programs for adults come to the picture! Traffic rules, vehicle designs and safety features have changed drastically in the last many decades. Most of the adults, who took license many years ago, obviously would benefit by undergoing a refresher course, which will make them familiar with the traffic rules, lane changes and the correct…

The editorial “Making Texting While Driving Look Unacceptably Stupid” explains that distracted driving can be a life altering route that drivers do not want to travel down. In this editorial it explains how the National Highway Traffic Safety report tells that 87 percent of drivers will admit to risky behaviors that include distracted driving. Distracted driving can be anything that allows a person to take their hands off the wheel for a second. With a second a disaster could happen at any…

take responsibility for there own actions. I feel driving should be also one of those responsibilities of adulthood because it is a sufficient age for someone to be able to drive a motor vehicle. In the United States we allow people to get their licenses at a younger age than in most countries, teenagers who are sixteen and seventeen…

with that, teenagers are the most likely to get in any kind of car accident. Because of this teenagers have good driving abilities based on how early they start, but one wrong turn could end in a deadly crash. When teens first get their driver’s license, the only thing the can think of is getting to go anywhere they want to without their parents. Although teens have the excitement to drive, it can turn into a nightmare. The Insurance…

A lot of adults say that kids should not be able to drive until they are 17 or 18. Most kids can’t wait to turn 16 so they can drive. The government has been talking about changing the law so kids can't drive till their 17. All of the kids would be very mad if this happens. I think that they should give kids their independence ,and let them drive. Young drivers have a lot more responsibility ,and are more reliable. They would be able to go to the store and pick things up. If you don’t feel like…

Is the Age of Responsibility More Than a Birthday? How many times have you been told that you were not old enough to do something? Or maybe you are expected to act like an adult, but you are sometimes treated like a child. Many teenagers are experiencing this same frustration. Most people around the world have already accepted that eighteen is the age in which teenagers technically become adults. However, these ‘adults’ are not even allowed to drink alcohol for another three years. Why is that…

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…
