There ought to be a law.
I get the distinct impression that the author doesn’t think teenagers are very responsible.
DUH! Award of the day goes to the author...
Wow...another hard hitting article plucked from the ‘Water is Wet’ file...
They could’ve paid me several less million and I could have told them that!
That people spent time and money on something so stupidly obvious is incredible.
Sometimes I see a carload of youngsters grab@$$ing in a car, while the boom of the bass in their sound system rattles the fillings in my teeth. It is hard to decide whether to curse them or whisper a prayer that they survive the ride.
This is why my son’s first vehicle was a pickup truck.
“horseplay”? I haven’t heard that term for awhile. Is the author in his 90’s?
And in other news, researchers have determined that water is wet and fire is hot...
Gees it has been the same since I was a teen in the ‘60s! We were crazy!
I think in some States with graduated driver’s licenses there are restrictions on how many other crazed teenagers can also be in the car - 0 or 1.
My goodness.... how much money did this cost to find the obvious???
When driving, TV and movie characters seem to keep their everywhere except on the road. Granted, they are being towed, rather than actually driving, but it sets a really bad example for impressionable viewers, which appears to be a lot of actual drivers.
Drunk and stoned.
You didn't even get in much trouble if you got caught, but it would screw up your weekend.
I'm so glad nobody got hurt.
I support laws that put scrutiny on these young drivers. My friends and I are lucky to be alive.
As the parent of several loud teenagers, I can conclusively say they are a huge distraction for me as well.
***but loud conversations and horseplay between passengers appear more likely to result in a dangerous incident,***
No s#!t Sherlock! And how much taxpayer’s money did it take to come to this conclusion that everyone has known for the last 90 years?
