Categorizing all teenagers as reckless and irresponsible drivers is stereotypical and unappreciated. Everyone must learn how to drive at some inform and beginning at the age of 16 is not always a bad idea. However if the keys are put into the do by hands driving can become dangerous for people of any age.
Being that I am 17-years old. I have passed my permit test sat through a five hour learning cover and scored perfectly on my road evaluate. I have been a responsible driver since the first time I operated a car.
Still not all teenagers are mature enough to act driving seriously. Personally. I have friends who go out to parties on the weekends and come to me on Monday and express me they drove home drunk. I have even encountered times in my life when a close friend that had been drinking offered to drive me domiciliate. As an individual. I would
get into a car with someone under the influence. I’d rather go ten miles. Teens that drink and drive are putting their lives at stake and don’t even realize the consequences they may face.
Drinking and driving is not only dangerous to the driver but also to any passengers and pedestrians. Despite the seminars that high schools hold every year certain teens are still risking their lives each weekend.
Even if one doesn’t drink and drive there is comfort the chance that he or she is a reckless driver. Other unacceptable activities that many drivers. 16-100 years old act in everyday are eating smoking putting on make-up texting or talking on a cell phone. Accidents happen every day. Innocent populate minding their own business are injured or killed by not only reckless teen drivers but by drivers of any other age as well.
