road. They pay attention to their ipod their cell phones, their radio, but not the road. I know some people do, but we need to be more careful. And making the test harder is just as bad as keeping the age of 16 because people will study to get the license. I think that if you raise it to 18 there will be a lesser chance that accidents will occur. Older people will likely to pay more attention to the road then all the new technology people create. Teenagers may take their eyes of the road,…
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…
enforced in many states and countries. For example, it is required for every teen driver to have their learner's permit for a period up to six months in order to get their license. Regardless of their age or their score on the test, they are required to have six months of driver's experience prior to the issuing of their driver's license. I, however, do believe that such limitations will help to decrease motor vehicle accidents and mold these young teens to become more responsible on the…
teenagers obtaining their driver’s license is the first initial step of becoming an adult, but while having their license, do these teenagers drive responsibly? Many political and public figures question the ability to drive at the age of 16 causing many of these figures to wonder if the minimum driving age should be changed from 16 to 18. Statistics have shown one of every five 16-year-olds will be in a severe motor vehicle crash within two years of getting their license and that number is…
in a society where we need a license to drive, to start a business, and even to fish. But when it comes to raising our future generation, anyone has control of that. We obtain licenses to ensure that we are preparing ourselves for what is to come, why don’t we do the same to prepare ourselves for raising a child? I propose the implication of a parenting license to ensure future parents are prepared and ensure the success of a child. The “Secure Adequate Parenting License” or “SAP” for short,…
busy highway. Then he collided into another driver. Two of his classmates on the left passenger side and the truck driver died. 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”). Teens should not receive their driver’s license until the age of eighteen because accidents involving teenagers are usually caused by inexperience, alcohol use, and texting while driving. First, according to…
to constantly have to change her plans for him, but when he got his license he could take himself wherever he needed to go.Teens need to get used to taking themselves places because when they get out of school that's the only thing they'll be able to do. Another reason the driving age should remain at 16 is so teens have the opportunity…
Georgia, Massachusetts, Michigan, Tennessee and Wisconsin belong to the Interstate Drivers License Compact (IDLC). This means when you are arrested for DUI in a member state belonging to the IDLC you will be subjected to penalties in the other member state that you reside in. If you fail to show up in court for the out-of-state DUI, your state may issue a bench warrant for your arrest, suspend your license, charge fines and/or imprison you for your offense. Your first step, if you are…
Imagine the time when you finally earned your driver’s license. As you obtained it, you think it would be an excellent idea to drive to school. This is an extraordinary convenience, but what if it was banned? Although you had the ability to drive, you were now restricted five days during the week because of school. This convenience is too beneficial to take away from high school students. Driving to school encourages students to practice their driving skills and gives them a sense of…
One of the greatest accomplishments in a teenager’s life is receiving their driver's license. Freedom, independence, all found in one little piece of cheap plastic. Yes, getting our license is very exciting, but most of us do not understand the odds that they are up against. Many believe that once they have their license they can do anything and forget about the risk that comes with all the new responsibility. As a teenager, you become the most dangerous driver on the road. You have a…
