FOR AND AGAINST ESSAY



LOWERING THE AGE TEENAGERS CAN GET A DRIVING LICENCE.

Most young people want to get a driving licence as early as possible. Some people agree with the possibility of lowering the age teenagers can get their driving licence, but some others have another point of view. Let's explain the advantages and disadvantages of this.

On the one hand, if the age allowed was reduced, teenagers could be aware of what cars, roads and speed are and the risk that all these things have. In addition to this, they would be able to go everywhere by themselves, so parents would not have to drive them all the time.

On the other hand, the unconsciousness and irresponibility of teenagers make the possibility of getting a driving licence earlier an impossible law to pass. They could get in trouble or cause more accidents.

In conclusion, young people could be able to drive earlier and because of this, special cars for teenagers with speed limits have been invented. For example, in the United States, 16 year-old peolple can drive thanks to this.
