The legal age of driving should be raised. To start off, there are teen that can’t mentally and physically drive. Distracting objects such as cell phones, friends in the same vehicle, radio, and anything they can think of are all deadly when driving a 4,000 pound vehicle. Teens are most likely going to be involved in drugs and alcohol. All in all, the legal driving age should be raised for numerous reasons.

In 2023 according to the Department of Transportation, it is projected that there will be 243.4 million licensed drivers in the United States and we are some of them.(Department of Transportation) Driving became more and more popular with the introduction of paved, organized and safer roadways. This prompted a boom in companies building cars, people buying cars and a roadway expansion.

Driving at Sixteen Driving at 16 is a right of passage steeped in tradition. For decades, teens have received their driver 's licenses at 16. While some might say this is too young and seek to raise the minimum age to 18, generations of teens have successfully managed the responsibilities of driving. The minimum driving age of 16 should not be raised because it would increase transportation problems, keep teens from fulfilling responsibilities, and prevent oversight of new drivers.

I think the driving age should stay at the age of 16 because as you get older you have more experience driving. Every thing goes best when you start young because of all the practice you've had over the years. starting at 16 can can lead some teens to good cares like: NAS car, or driving for movies. I think the age of 16 is a good place to start, because its like they say know more about the job before the interview, so that way you have a better chance of getting the job. Safety still is a problem because 16 year olds are reckless as well so its a bigger chance that more people could be in danger young teens that are behind the wheel going fast and doing what ever else they do when there alone trying to be cool for who ever.

Because of safety concerns, many states have increased the age at which teens can begin to drive. Teens need to have their own experiences. Driving at sixteen is a great way for teens to indulge in experiences and start a more independent life. The driving age should not be raised because driving gives one freedom, driving allows teens to work, and driving teaches responsibility.

It 's not the age that is the problem it is responsibility. This is why the age should stay 16 and stay that way. Imagine a sixteen year old that already has their license. This person now doesn 't have to rely on his parents so much. All there life there parents have driven them places and went out of there way to drive you everywhere.

The driving age should remain the same, but having higher qualifications before receiving a license. No matter what the driving age is, it won’t change the amount of driving experience of an individual. Anahad o’conner states, “…while having an adult supervision in the car reduces risk, it also protects teenage drivers so much that they miss out on learning experiences that can be learned only by driving alone” (50-52). People learn by making mistakes, nobody can get into a car and drive perfectly for the first time. Therefor there will be scary moments as a driver to gain experience and become better.

The last thing you want to danger your kids is another driver, they may be intoxicated or just not caring for your safety or anyone else's. There are alot of dangers with young drivers, they are irresponsible and only care about fun and friends and are reckless. Eighteen year olds are more responsible and responsive when it comes to driving and aware. Safety is a really big deal when it comes to driving so we should up the driving age to eighteen.
