According to the Chicago Tribune teen unemployment is at 23.8%. In urban areas the teen unemployment is at 34.7%.

1) No job = no car.
2) Cash for clunkers removed a lot of the second hand cars that provided the first cars for teens.
3) No job = no gas. Why buy a car if you can't put gas in it?
4) Insurance costs for young drivers are gong up. No job = no money for insurance.
5) New laws restrict the ability of teens to bring passengers in their cars. Without the ability to carry passengers a motorcycle does the same job at a lot less cost.
6) Did I mention there are no jobs for teen agers. The reason I bought my first car (oh yes it was a clunker) was so I could get to my part time job. If the main need for a car is getting to your part time job, no job, no need for a car.

NAILED IT!

The less that the younger generation can drive the more they can keep them “penned in” in the inner cities and urban areas. Then the ones that want to drive will get a car if they work for the state, they can get a Chevy Volt as “part of their job” leading to more government dependence.
