16-year-old driving

should you let your 16-year-old drive? "Researches for the Institute for highway Safety say the answer is no, and they point to statistics to back up the position that raising the driving age makes sense and would save lives."

15-year-old Linnea Greci says " she sees the issue a little differntly.

President Adrian Lund is going to push it futher. Althought Lund Doesn't expect to lobby state legislatures, he said monday he will advocate for a higher minimum driving age in his speech Tuesday. He what to raise driving ages, because every time you turn around a 16-year-old getting in a car crash.

"I dont think it matters what age you are" sophomore at the Hinsdale Central High School said Monday before hitting the road for her driver's education class, "as long as you have the practice and experience."

Studies said "but 'we're still losing a lot of teens on the road each year, ' Lund said. Motor vehicle crashes kill more than 5,ooo teenagers every year.

Studies alsoblieved that  "In a prepared statement for release Tuesday, the institute contends research shows "that licensing at later ages would substantially reduce crashes involving teen drivers."

"This is kind of the next logical step,' he said of the insurance institute's push to raise the minimum age. ' ages would substantially reduce crashes involving teen drivers."

"In New Jersey, the only state with a minimum driver's license age of 17."' "The report cited a study from 1992-96 in which the rate of crash-related deathes among 16-and-17-year-olds was 18 per 100,000nin New Jersey, compared with 26 per 100,000 in New Jersey,"
 Studies also believed that " the report also showed that the New Jersey fatality rate fell significantly for teens after a graduated licensing law was enacted.

I believed that it dont matter what age you are, if you know how to drive you should be able to drive. It all goes by the way how you drive and not your age. And also how mature your all.
