with car crashes being the leading cause of death among teenagers, many are in favor of raising the legal driving age to eighteen. according to the national highway safety administration, the rate of crashes, both fatal and nonfatal, for sixteen-year-old drivers is almost ten times the rate as that of drivers aged thirty to fifty-nine, as calculated per mile driven. no one disputes the idea that raising the legal driving age will create issues and difficulties for many; however, these issues pale in comparison with the issue of safety. "the bottom line is that when we look at the research, raising the driving age saves lives," states adrian lund, president of the insurance institute for highway safety, a research group funded by the auto insurance industry. to date, new jersey is the only state to raise the legal driving age to seventeen, and various studies have shown that the overall rate of teen fatalities linked to automobile accidents has been consistently lower compared to that of nearby states.
