Having your driver’s license at age 16 is a good thing to have. The age should stay the same. Teenagers get more independence, can get places faster, and get better job opportunities.

A teenager being able to have a license at 16 gives them more responsibility. Teenagers would have more ways to pay for the car and the needs of having a car; for example, a car payment or insurance. People would have their own choices on where to go and when. Student teenagers would also have more abilities to help others.

Also students could get to places much faster, if they had their license and a car to drive. Students would be able to get to school and work with no problem. They wouldn’t have to walk or take the buses. Getting places faster, students and/or teenagers would have more job opportunities. If they had more job opportunities, the students would be able to pay for the car needs.

Some adults think teenagers should not be able to get their license because it is too dangerous. More accidents occur with teenagers. But, adults have accidents too. Most adults do not want teenagers or students to drive unless they are completely responsible and have experience. Students wouldn’t have much experience unless they start. They can learn to have the experience and be responsible. Having a license is a privilege. That is why the states have the driving tests to show that the students are capable.

In conclusion, having a license is a privilege and teenagers just have to show that they are responsible enough to handle it. Students can get to school and work faster. Making the law to where the age would be higher for people to get their license is not right. There are risks when everybody drives. Students would have more responsibilities to get them ready for the big world. The age should stay at age 16.
