Speak Up! - View Question #16 |
 printer friendly version
Question: Did Arizona pass a law where you can't drive until you are 18?
Answer: No, Arizona passed a graduated licensing law. All 15, 16 and 17-year olds applying for a graduated driver license on or after July 18, 2000, are affected by the new law, regardless of when they may have applied for an instruction permit Even holders of instructional permits received before July 18, 2000 must hold the instructional permit for a full five months before they can apply for a graduated license.

There is also a great deal of information on the Arizona Department of Motor Vehicles Web site

I truly believe that a law requiring teens to get their license after they have graduated from high school would eliminate the drop out rate and also give Arizona safer drivers. Teens should be able to get a restricted license for work and school at 16 but not an unrestricted until they have graduated. Teens are immature and do not pay attention to their driving, driving is a priviledge not necessarily a right. If you don't give them incentive for their license, then why finish school and why drive safely. There are no goals in this country, too much poverty and ignorance due to dropping o

I think a lot of teenagers are inexperienced, and crash for the same reason that new drivers (whatever their age may be)
have auto. accidents. However, a few jerks who think the only reason for a car is to blast their stereos, race, and look cool are the same people
who ruined it for us....
