The article by Ted Gregory called " Sould 16-year-olds drive?", is about what ages to let teens get their driving lessons. Some people do and don't agree on whether they should. Institute President Adrian Lund believes not because of car crashes every year. " We're still losing a lot of teens on the road each year." Lots of other people believe that it's no big deal and that they're be fine. " I don't think it matters what age you are," the Hinsdale Central High School sophmore said, "as lond as you have the practice and experience."
 I believe the same, people teens can drive at sixteen only if they are really qualified. I don't relly think it matters what age they are because not all teens are bad on the road. They are just like adults because not all adults are qualified to be on the road despite their ages. Before I read this article, I did't know what to think, but now I do and I think that teens diserve to get their driver's license.
This is just like the time when I went to the amusement park with my family and they said that I was to young to play throwing the balls, I thought that was mean because I could actually throw good despite my age so I really didn't care. I thought that was rude and that I was good at it. But now I can't play so that a bummer.
This article really didn't make me think deeply about this topic because I already knew that people was thinking about it that way so it didn't really affect me. But, I must wonder why people act like this like adults don't do it either so it really didn't matter.

  1. Good post. Do you think that we as a society are doing a good job evaluating whether someone is responsible enough to drive? Should there be different criteria in terms of who gets to drive? 95
