Parents and the DMV were put on this earth to make teeners' life miserable.

Wait until YOU have a 16 y/o THEN you will understand

its not fair to the people around... it does not allow them time to grow and mature....before they start to drive

Because you are too immature to handle a deadly instrument around others whos lives you may be risking.

PS: I agree with rescue above. Maybe even 21.

you have to walk before you run. Don't focus on the fact that you can't drive with others in the car. Instead focus on learning how to become a good driver. It's not just about "red means stop, green means go"; most problems come from unexpected maneuvers from other drivers. Use the time your given to learn about the tendencies of the other drivers on the road. Learn how to really control the car when unexpected situations arise. It's not a matter of if you're going to have to use the skills you are about to develop but when.

Over the next few years you are going to become a better driver than you now. And if you are not a better you weren't paying attention. It's skill you have to develop. Anyone can push the gas and turn the wheel but you'll see there are a lot of bad, dangerous drivers on the road. Don't become one of them; learn how to safely deal with them.

Pay attention. Focus on getting better. Soon enough you will have plenty of friends annoying you for rides places.

because its for the safety of others and your own.

Accident statistics support the wisdom of such a policy. Indeed, the argument that the age eligibility for obtaining a driver's licence should be raised may be a better one to consider.

because asking a stupid question like this proves you shouldn't even be allowed to walk, let alone drive.

you are very young and havent had much experience behind the wheel. so many kids get in the car with their friend and get distracted, thats when accidents happen, you r only 16 you have the rest of ur life to drive be patient
