I disagree with Lauren. I think that if the driving age is raised, the states will still only give the teenagers their learners permits six months before they actually take the test. It would be the same amount of experience that they would if they got their license at 16.

I see what you're saying, yet I disagree. I think we shouldn't raise the driving age, because if some teens aren't mature enough and get your license, you shouldn't punish all the teens who have been waiting to drive for years. Driving is more of an experience thing, and according to NorthernStar, " Driving isn't a textbook exercise, but one that develops as experience builds." If 16 year olds get their license at 16, they will gain more experience for their years to come.

Lauren says that the driving age should be changed because the maturity of the kids, but I disagree. I think the driving age should not be changed, because not all teens are immature and stupid. And at 16, parents are still under control of their kids, so they can take away the kids license if needed. If the kids get their license at 16, nothing is stopping them from being stupid. Technically, the parents can't take away their license, as the kid is an adult now. Therefore, if you get your license at 16, your parents can teach you not to do stupid things, instead of them having no control of you.

I agree with Natalie. You're punishing all teens with the mistakes of a few of their peers, stereotyping them to be bad drivers even when they aren't as bad as you think they are.

Jackson says the driving age should be raised for two years because kids will be more responsible, but I disagree. I think the driving age should stay the same,because no matter how old you are, you will be reckless in the first year or so of driving. Therefore, no matter how old you are when you start driving, you aren't going to be that good of a driver.

If they can get their learners permit when they're sixteen, why can't they get it at fourteen and be mature enough to drive on their own at sixteen?

If they change the driving age to 18, it will just create accident prone, irresponsible drivers at 18 instead of 16.

Raising the driving age will not change the rate of deaths. It won't save lives. It's inexperience, not age, that creates accidents. Raising the driving age would just create inexperienced, accident-prone drivers at 18 instead of 16.
