<p>[QUOTE="Vess1, post: 646110, member: 13650"]I can't believe all the talk about age as if that's the biggest issue. I'm sure nobody's trying to offend anyone or doubting certain individuals credibility. The simple fact of the matter is that we have many rules in place in society based on age, that are intended to cover a broad range, an entire group of people,teens, misfits, what have you. Everyone knows there's good apples and very bad apples. Some 14 year olds may be very mature and would be safer driving a car than some 80 year olds. But what about the vast majority? If you ask me, I say no. The vast majority should not be driving at 14. Maybe not even 16 these days. </p><p> </p><p> The point is, you have to draw the line somewhere. Somewhere that makes sense. At some point, the powers that be put their minds together and decided that in most places, the earliest teens should be allowed to drive is 16. In most places, legal drinking age has been bumped all the way to 21, hoping that it may save some immature misfits from killing themselves or a member of my family. </p><p> </p><p> A line has to be drawn to govern the entire group as a whole so nobody should take anything personaly.
