A Wall Street Journal blog ("The Juggle") today featured a discussion on teen driving laws and the appropriate age for learner permits and unrestricted teen driving.
They have asked readers to weigh in on this topic. We are asking the Saferoads4teens Coalition to speak up in support of strong teen driving laws, including a minimum age of 16 for learner permits; an intermediate stage with restrictions on nighttime driving, passengers, and cell phone use / texting; and age 18 for full unrestricted licenses.
Click here to read the Wall Street Journal blog and post your reply supporting strong, lifesaving teen driving laws for every teen, in every state.
Some facts are provided in the left sidebar. Additional information can be found on websites from the American Academy of Pediatrics, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, and the Saferoads4teens Coalition.
