Driving license age.......Why change it?

Do you have your license? How old were you when you got it? Where you 16? Most of us were. The minimum legal driving age could be raised to 18 in an attempt to cut the number of deaths caused by young and inexperienced drivers. Road accidents are the biggest killers of 15-24 year olds. Studies show that 27% of males have an accident during their first year on the road. The government is planning on changing the legal driving age to 18. I think that is a bad idea. Being that I am 16, I feel that the driving age should stay as it is. To get my license I had to take a written test for my permit. Then I took drivers education. After that I took my driving test and got my license. I waited a year after taking my written test before taking my driving test. Many other 16 year olds do the same thing. We are tested in our driving ability to prove we are able to drive on any road with confidence and precision. Our parents gave consent so we could get our license. If they change the driving age they will have a ton of teenagers stealing and taking out cars for joy rides just to rebel. I am against changing the legal driving age. Are you?
