Introduction

Have you ever wondered if the driving age laws are fair or not? Have you ever thought that the driving age laws should raise or lowered? Or have you just thought they should stay the same,I don't care. Well this is the blog for you if you have! Should we change the driving age laws? Or should they stay the same?

Article 3:Driving Age Should Stay The Same

The main idea of Driving Age Should Stay The Same is to inform the reader that they shouldn't change the laws at all,just change some other things like "...making the driving tests harder, or making teens re-test after being caught driving badly, or simply making it the law to have your permit longer.." she states in this article. Her viewpoint is NOT to change the driving laws at all because age won't matter to experiance so she says changing to 18 is exactly like being 16. This is supported like how she states that "...People would most likely be right to say that most 16-year-olds aren't mature, but isn’t it also a known fact that men's brains don’t mature until the age of 25? Does that mean that all men shouldn’t drive until age 25? No, because people would see that as obscene.  At age 18, kids would be just as inexperienced at driving as they are at getting their license at 16..."
The evidence provided is not very biased, she says some good and bad things about the argument and mostly states opinion or what her family and friends have said before.

Article 2-Teen Driving Age Should Be Raised,Says Auto Safety Group (My Scholarly Article from The Huffington Post)

The main idea of Teen Driving Age Should Be Raised,ect. is to inform the reader why the driving laws should be raised to 18 and who thinks so,like Adrian Lund and many parents. The viewpoint of the author is that the laws should be raised and she talks about some people who are saying raising the laws will cure the "Teenage Driver" saying and will make less teenage deaths from accidents. This is supported by how she states the fact that in the 1990s a study found that the rate of crash-related deaths among 16 and 17 year olds were 18 per 100,000 in New Jersey,and 26 per 100,000 in Connecticut and by stating many more facts. The tone of this is serious by how she never really states her opinion,only facts and by stating many of them.
The evidence provided is biased toward her viewpoint and doesn't state many facts about not raising the laws but she provides many facts and almost no opinion.

Article 1- Is 16 Too Young To Drive?

The main idea for the article, Is 16 Too Young To Drive, Is to persuade the reader that the driving age should be lowered to 14 or 15 so the teens can have more experience before the big driving test. The viewpoint of the author, Eric Peters (automotive columnist), is to lower the age, and that Adrian Lund is a “Professional nag who heads an organization of nags…” This is supported by how he says how “…logic says start them sooner, not later…” and how he says that experience and training mean more than age and if they start us earlier then we will have more experience. The tone of this article is like how my dad rants when he reads something stupid online, like how Peter said that Lund is a nag. His conclusion is that the ISS doesn’t want solutions, nor does the IIHS.

The evidence provided is very biased and he doesn’t state any clear facts, mostly opinion. He could have included some good things about changing the driving age to 18 or higher, but he doesn’t and just shows more bias and slant.
