I say make the males wait until they are 18 to drive. Females can stay at 16.

http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=s ... owapattern Its a pretty strong and lenghthy article about how stupid teen agers are at the weel. I, myself have never had one crash since i started driving both cars & motorcicles (when i turned 16 i got my permit). Though its pretty clear that some teens have problems on managing their 'fun' level and causing lots of unwanted/unecessary deaths. |

Same here. Honestly, I would say that it depends on the person more than the age of the person. Some people I know aren't fit to drive at 25 but the system isn't really in place to make you "not retarded" it simply teaches you what, in theory, you need to know to make you a good driver. You can't force people to pay attention and some instructors, like mine, really don't care. We would drive him to run errands

I was the same when I started. Too many stupid people on the road. (In my area that's for damn sure) It still makes me uneasy that I can't completely control any situation on the road... |

My mom is closing in on 50 and she is one of the worst drivers i've ever seen
I think I'm a pretty good driver, though I still haven't bothered to actually get my liscense since I don't have any money to buy a car anyway haha. Got learner's permit like 2 years ago lol |

Unfortunately I'm not this contry's dictator er...preisident so what I think has little to no effect on anything at all. Descrimination agaisnt stupid people isn't all that wrong if you think about it... |

Young kids are insane on the roads. I see them weaving in and out of cars and flying down highways. This is why I take the back roads
