Raise the driving age to 21

Postby Chris » September 8th, 2011, 10:34 am

Too many kids under the age of 21 are drinking and driving. Stats show that teenagers are more likely to be involved in accidents where drink driving is an issue and are more susceptible to peer pressure. What do you think?

I understand your point Chris.

Having said that I respectfully disagree. The age-limit has to be drawn somewhere and with people under 21 in the workforce, too many law-abiding youths would be punished by such a change.
