    The AJC’s editorial board says the legal driving age in Georgia should be raised to 17 to cut down on teenage traffic fatalities. Some argue that such a law would impose hardships on the kids and their parents. Would the proposal too drastic, or is it a common sense approach to cutting down on tragic deaths and injuries?

    The age for driving a car should be raised to that at which a person has the maturity to understand that driving a car and talking a cellphone are completely incompatible tasks. To those who understand that not withstanding the jive cell carriers say to Congresspersons on junkets to Africa to expand the use of cellphones amongst Nigerian rebels who disrupt oil deliveries.
    Accident data reflect that older drivers (especially those over 70) have a significantly higher risk of being involved in automobile accidents - especially single vehicle accidents that result from inadvertence, distraction, "falling asleep" behind the wheel, and so on. Nighttime driving is especially risky for older drivers, whose eyes are more affected by glare.
