License

Turning sixteen years old is an exciting time in a teenagers life. They're now eligible for a drivers license. giving them not only freedom but control , something they've yet to expirence. While its a good idea to start teens driving at the age 15 so they're able to get all the practice and expirence they need before receiving a license, driving limitations on teens should be toughened not only to protect teen drivers but the community of the teens as well. Most teens feel they're an adult by…

One teen I know of who doesn’t have a driver’s licenses and who is absolutely scared out of her mind to drive, wants to eventually overcome her fear of driving and get her license. The one teen I know of is me, I’m 19 and don’t have my driver’s licenses. I have gotten in the driver’s seat before and driven places but knowing I could put not only myself but anybody in the car with me in a lot of danger, scares me. Some of my family members have gotten in one or more car accidents in my lifetime…

Between 1995 and 2004 there were over 30,00 accidents by teen drivers. To prevent accidents by teen drivers should we raise the age limit from 16 to 18? Or have every state adopt graduated driver’s license?Some graduated driver’s license only let 16 year olds drive during the daytime or with an adult for a certain amount of hours. Raising the driving age from 16 to 18 is a terrible idea. Having bad drivers at 16 then raising the age limit. There will be bad drivers at age 18. Teens should…

at 16, it teaches responsibility, and it eliminates the need for transportation. Kids growing up look up to being a teenager and having their driver’s license. Turning 16 is not only the age at which you can possess a driver’s license; it is also the age that kids start thinking about getting a job. Having a job allows…

I believe that raising the driving age limit would hinder our young teens. For most they depend on getting their license at their age for several of reasons. This will make it to where they have the freedom to go as they please and have that freedom. While some young teens do not care if it is raised cause either way they still get to drive. Some adults say, that in raising the driving age will make it to where their will be less accidents on the road; however, that might be true to some degree…

I know it’s shocking. Once you turn fifteen in Texas, you can get a learners permit. Once you turn sixteen, you can obtain a state's driver's license. They’ve only been driving a little more than a year and now they can take their parents car wherever they want without the supervision of a well-seasoned adult driver. This could lead to some fatal accidents if they were to panic or second guess…

There are teens at the age of eighteen who have their license and can drive their friends around but lack experience. If kids are driving by themselves for an extra year, then they will be more responsible at the age of eighteen when they drive with others. With this inexperience, they have a crash rate higher…

overly cautious, inefficient and could do with some improvements (http://rmrracing.com/history/). People have to be 18 or older with a legal valid license in order to race in the Rocky Mountain Raceways. This is an unnecessary caution. It is unfair to the participants to not attend the event, when the state law says they can drive because they have a license. Any one that has proven themselves able to drive by working really hard to pass the driver’s…

safely. Teens have very little knowledge and experience in a car. Current programs don’t teach and show young people how to drive or use a car. GDLs require you to have a set number of hours driving with an adult to receive your license, as were regular license don’t. GDLs give teens a step by step experience on how to drive a car with the help of adult supervision. Raising the driving age wouldn’t help the situation at hand.…

How can Teenagers be Convinced to Drive More Safely? Turning sixteen years in the lives of teenagers is an exciting moment. At this age, they are able to acquire a driver’s license, and it is a milestone towards adulthood (Moreno 592). At this juncture, they have the control as well as the freedom they never experienced before. The higher freedom could, however, be a recipe for more evil than could if not well utilized. For instance, on several occasions, people have blamed teenage deaths to…
