raising the driving age

It may be inevitable since the leading cause of teen fatality is car-related. Obviously, raising the driving age would outrage the disenfranchised youth, but without legal voting rights, they have no say on these changes. As parents and governors grow more concerned about this issue, the age change becomes more inevitable. Obviously, these idiots never came to the conclusion that people don't magically learn how to drive by 17 years of age, so all they are doing is delaying these deaths by a year. In other words, accidents are caused by a combination of reckless driving and incorrect driving, both of which coincide with the fact that new drivers are inexperienced and want to experiment. If the driving age were 37, then there would be an overwhelming number of people between 37 and 40 that died from accidents, too. Article is by MSNBC.

Discuss.
