In the two passages “Should Driving age be raised to 18?” and “Do teens need graduated License?” they are arguing over what to do to reduce the amount of car accidents that teens do. So, which one do you think is better to reduce the amount of car accidents raising the age to 18 or have the drivers to have more experience with driving? Well I think that the drivers should have more experience because it is not just teens. It is the adult drivers who cause the teens to have accidents because the adults
is an age kids look forward to their whole lives. A new found freedom teens gain when turning sixteen is driving. Driving is a privilege and an incentive for teens, and driving opens up a world of opportunities to young adults.

The article discusses the ethical, pathological, and emotional effects if the drinking age were to be lowered or raised. If the drinking age were to change, how would society react to this change and what would be the long term effects. Drinking has always caused negative effects, yet how would changing the age effect personal struggles.

Minimum Legal Drinking Age (MLDA) in some states of the United States should be lowered from 21 to 18 as it is in most countries in Europe. Although an 18-year-old is regarded as an adult in the United States and having the right to vote, buy a lottery ticket, a pack of cigarettes, get a tattoo, and join the army, they do not have the legal right to buy and consume alcohol. So, in this essay, I am going to explain why Minimum Legal Drinking Age should not be reduced to 18 because it would affect
