Default For Those Who Participate in Driving Age Thread

Just to gather more data and see if my hypothesis is right. Poll away!

Remember: Only vote if you voted to keep the driving age at 16 in the following thread:

I guarantee every person who's voted so far is lying. Not even 80% of FFR users have a license. I'd even be willing to bump that to 90%.

It's just a mentality of teenagers to have a car. The same mentality goes for smoking and drinking. You want to do things as soon as possible, and it's a whole lot easier when you have a car to get you around to doing them.

As for myself? I voted it should be raised AND I have a license. Add to that with the fact that I did not receive my license until I was 17 and some months.

Not "every" person. I voted that the age should stay the same, and I"ve had my full license for approximately 5 months (after 3 years of driving). In some places in Canada people need to drive to get anywhere... I'm sure it's the same in places in the states. But overall, the age limitation of 16 is pretty low, but I don't think changing it would solve any problems. I think that there just needs to be a change in the system, not the age.

The Q-

the older forum members tend to browse these forums more than the younger ones. I don't see why you think people would lie about their age. In fact, everyone that has posted in this thread is older than 16 if I am not mistaken.

This isn't about whether you think think it should be moved or not, this is exploring the world of bias. Don't discuss it in here
