There are times when you might not want to worry about driving. During these times it might feel good to just sit back and relax, while you leave the driving to someone else. Perhaps you're going on a brewery and wine tour with a group of friends, for example. It just doesn't seem fair that one person has to skip tasting the wine or beer in order to be the designated driver. What happens if the designated driver isn't as responsible as you thought? This can lead to a host of problems that can quickly turn a fun day out, into something that takes your life down a very difficult path. Instead of taking such a huge risk, it makes more sense to have a hired driver. No one makes a night out more fun than we do. Make West Coast Limo Bus in Chula…
1 cause of death among 15 to 20-year olds in this country”. When I turned 16 I knew that I wasn't ready to start driving yet, and waited till I was 17 to get my permit. Teenagers should drive when they feel ready to be behind the wheel, which should be around the 17 age range. I also agree with Quindlen's point that in New Jersey we have among the strictest laws but are rarely enforced. With the laws being more enforced it shows that if you're driving recklessly there will be…
In contradicting to what i said some teenagers are very responsible and mature they know how to drive responsibly without letting peer pressure get to them. Some teenagers need to get their license around the age of 16 due to having single parents that are not able to pick them up or drop them off from school or sport training programs such as, soccer, and tennis .Travelling maybe difficult for some teens this maybe because of the location of their school or work places may cause them to be late for travelling distance may be too far for them to reach this may also add alot of pressure on the child.…
In a research studied done by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety the research group is trying to push the age of teen drivers to 17 or 18 due more than 5,000 teens dying in the U.S. alone because the rate of fatal and nonfatal crashes per mile for teen drivers is 10 times the amount for drivers between the age of 30 to 59 this according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.…
As a parent, do you really want to put your child at risk of death because of the lack of driving skills? Or even as a teenager, do you want to end your life early because you don’t know the proper rules of the road? I don’t think a teenagers life should ever be in danger because they aren’t sure how to do a correct left turn going into oncoming traffic, or how to yield at a yield sign. The driving age should be raised to eighteen so teens are more responsible, mature, and ready to take on a very dangerous task that they will continue doing the rest of their life.…
The appropriate age for a teenager to obtain a driving permit is 16 years old, however I believe it should be raised to 17 since there is a high rate of teenagers causing accidents. There might be some exceptions why they should keep it at 16 but due to the high rate of teen crashes they should raise the age to 17. Statistics have shown that teenagers have a higher chance of accidents. Teenagers from the ages of 15 to 17 are more likely to cause a car crash for many reasons. While teenagers go out at night and drive around with friends and only have their permit, they are putting other’s people life at risk. The three main reasons why teenagers should be at least the age of 17 to be able to get their permit is because they drive and text,…
Should teens get graduated licenses. Licenses are freedom. Some people can get very hurt from that freedom. Teens are the most likely to wreck. Teens are involved with 7% of car crashes and 20% involved with any kind of accident. Some adults think that teens need restrictions…
A new 17 or 18-year-old driver is considered safer than a 16-year old driver (Davis). Teenagers should wait until they are older and have more experience to start driving. “ The only way to become a good driver is to get out and learn,” says O’Donnell. But in 2007, more than 4,000 teenagers died as occupants in teen- driven vehicles (Palicz). Furthermore, teens lack of experience not only costs them their lives, but the lives of others. In the end, it does not matter that teens are not getting practice with driving, but that every day another life is lost.…
"Teen drivers ages 15 to 20 are 1.6 times more likely to be involved in a fatal crash, compared to adult drivers between the ages of 35 and 40" ("Teen"). About a month ago there was a teen girl driving to school, the roads were bad and she should not have taken a back road. She ended up losing control of her vehicle, causing the vehicle to roll over. If she was not wearing her seatbelt the accident could have been fatal. She is very lucky that nothing more than a totaled vehicle came from the horrific incident. There are many reasons why students should not drive to school. It is dangerous, there is a trouble with parking, and students could have illegal things in their vehicles.…
Teenagers have the highest average annual crash and traffic violation rates of any other age group. Teenagers today have become one of the most dangerous people who drive, they are even more dangerous than old people. There are many things teens do while driving that are not save and violate laws and safety procedures that keep people safe on the road.…
I think teenage driving should not be raised and remained the same. Driving can be complicated for people that haven’t experienced it at all, especially, the ones that are nervous and seen the downsides of driving on drivers education. Getting the teens to drive vehicles can overcome their fear and help them learn more outside. Not only that, but it also have them get used to land vehicles they are already familiar with the roads, the signs, etc. Early driving comes with three good benefits such as: actual driving experience, increases responsibility, and stabilizes memory and awareness.…
Teenage accident rates and mortality rates have increased dramatically over the years. Nothing that the parents do and law enforces will protect the teens all the time, especially from themselves. Teenagers do not realize the responsibility that comes with driving. They are often distracted with other things such as texting while driving. Most importantly, parents always worry about the safety of their kids on the road. Some people may say that the driving age should stay at the age of 16; however, raising the driving age to 18 will create safer and more responsible drivers. Firstly, teenagers are very careless. In addition, increasing the minimum driving age will allow teenagers more time to get comfortable with driving. Finally, the number of fatal accidents will be reduced. Therefore, the minimum driving age should be raised from 16 to 18.…
In most states you can get your license at age 16. Many people think this is way too young, the drivers are too inexperienced and teenagers are more accident prone. But parents can’t always drive their teenagers everywhere they want to go. Teenagers are often involved in sports, drama, and other extra-curricular activities and they need a car.…
In conclusion, the minimum age should stay the same. Teens should be able to drive from the age of 16 so they can build their experience and learn responsibility on the road. Many people would agree that it should stay at 16. Teens may be inexperienced and less responsible but they still need their freedom and changing the minimum age will take it…
Because of safety concerns, many states have increased the age at which teens can begin to drive. Some teenagers at the age of 16 are responsible. Some 16 year olds are irresponsible. Also, all 18 year olds are not responsible and able to drive the correct way. The state legislature should not raise the minimum age from 16 to 18 because some 16 year olds have a job and need transportation, a few may not like to depend on individuals to drive them back and forth, and many teenagers like to do their own things and not always with their parents.…
