Teen Drivers: The Risks & Dangers
Teenagers face increased risks and dangers over other drivers. Teenagers between the ages of 16 and 19 are 4 times more likely to get into accidents while driving than the average adult. The younger they are, the more at risk they are - 16-year-olds are twice as likely to crash per mile driven than 18-19 year-olds. In 2008, 6,428 teens were killed in car accidents.

And remember, staying out of the car that day is not a possible answer. Most drivers would have trouble answering this question. The truth is, most of us are a bit leery of both the youngest and the oldest of motorists.

Which type of driver should really worry us? The best way to answer is to look at the strengths and weaknesses of both kinds of motorists.
