Hold on now, the new law in PA says you can get your drivers permit at 16, but not a DL until 18. This is done to ensure that they are driving with a responsible, more mature agult over the age of 21. With the permit only, they can not drive after 11 pm unless it is with their parent or legal guardian.
I think this is a great idea!
You do get more mature with age, but this is NO guarentee. If experience was everything, we could start letting them drive at 11 so they will have tons of experience by 16, right? See, that's not good either.
The greatest cause of death amoung kids is car accidents! Kids under the age of 18 are as likely to be in a wreck as drivers over the age of 86! This says it all! We need to protect are kids, even if it is from themselves. There are too many of them dying.
