Is it really a good idea for 16 year-olds to drive?

In the article "Should 16-year-olds drive?" it is saying that they believe that 16 year old teenagers are not ready to drive. In the article it says that researchers for the insurance institute say 16 year olds should not be able to get their drivers license.  Linnea Greci a 15 year old girl believes that it does'nt matter what age you are you should be able to get your drivers license. Some people believe that age has nothing to do with maturity and just because you're young does'nt mean you may not be mature enough or be a good driver. I honestly believe that although you you may be mature enough or a good driver does'nt mean you should be able to get your license. Because there will always be a time especially being a teenager where you will not be aware of everything around you and other drivers on the road. Also because I know as a teenager I can get distracted very easily. I personally want my license but most likely will wait until I am a little older and mature enough to get my license and drive on the road with other moving vehicles.

  1. You've summarized the article and provided your opinion, but you need to write a bit more explanation of the reasons the articles gives for why some think the driving age should be raised to 17 or 18. 80
