License

irresponsible when driving, causing more trouble and craziness than the previous two described. Some people who cannot afford drivers education wait until they are eighteen to get their license. When this happens, the person does not have to do anything but take a test in the DMV and drive with a professional to obtain their license. This means they possibly did not get legitimate training or go through classes to get the proper education to be driving on the road. Although this is not the case…

Drunk drivers who cause accidents with fatalities should be charged with murder. There should be no surprise that drunk driving is a immense problem in our country. The penalties for drunk driving have increased because of the impact it causes on families who lose their children, fathers, mothers, or other family members to death and/or disability. So when individual take the risk of drinking and driving, they are taking the risk on the lives that are out there and of their own. People who…

Change the Legal Driving Age It is being continually expressed by the older generations that we as teens are reckless, thoughtless, and dangerous drivers. That we are just causing more problems for our parents, pedestrians, and other drivers as well. We are destroying the meaning of ‘safe’ of in our towns with our accidents and problems. The solution the ‘adults’ have come up with is to possibly change the legal driving age to a higher age. To change it from sixteen to eighteen would be a…

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…

teens do not need to drive. Their parents can drive them if they have jobs or they just need to go out. Most 16 year olds are not capable to drive safely and should not be allowed to. (Rebuttals) Each year teens receive learner’s permits or driver’s licenses. Digits continue to show that 16 year old teen drivers have more injury accidents than any other group of drivers. Most are caused by the lack of experience. Teen drivers not only need to know the rules for safe driving, but they must…

Similar to drinking the driving age being made higher will negatively affect the social lives of many teenagers and young adults. Without a license it is harder for teen to go out as much as they would like to because they have to rely on their parents or others that are older than them to drive them to where they want to go. Also like drinking raising the driving age would make sense from the…

Danny never got the chance to feel the excitement of his sixteenth birthday, the pride of getting his drivers license. The chance to go to prom, to graduate high school, or attend college. Danny would of loved being in a fraternity. He loved having a good time and making people laugh. He did not get to fall in love, to get married, or have children. He could have…

that was what made me even more eager to drive. After the project the next thing we did was drove around in a parking lot. It was different cause it had been awhile since I had driven, so it was rather interesting still I couldn't wait to have my license. Finally a little while after driver's ed I went up to Ft. Morgan and took the test, it took forever and a day waiting…

In the article “Should 16-year-olds drive?”, Ted Gregory questions whether 16 is a suitable age to start driving. Highway safety groups say no, but 15-year-old Linnea Greci says that practice and experience are all that’s needed to be a good driver. Since the biggest cause of teen death is car crashes, new laws have been enacted that require more hours with an adult and a longer time in possession of a permit. Some say the state of New Jersey is on the right track by having the age set at 17,…

Raising the Driving age to 18. Back in 2013 on December 4th, 16-year-old Alyssa Ettl, a junior at Lakeville North had gotten in a car accident and we all probably remember this sad event. Alyssa had lost control of her car and ended up colliding with an SUV(Ferraro). And now 2 years exactly later another car accident happened on December 4th, 2015 but with 4 Lakeville South students. 2 of the students were announced dead at the scene of the accident it was 17-year-old Jacob Flynn and 18-year-old…
