Because eighteen years old or older are more responsible and have a much more focused mind. Some people might argue that there is little difference between these two ages. Teenagers tend to be careless and to tell you the truth, being cautious is the number one thing when driving. Secondly, even if sixteen years old would drive accompanied by an adult with five years of driving experience, this will not provide traffic safety. So, this is my second argument for raising the driving age: safety reasons. Thirdly, I think riding a bicycle and public transportation should be promoted. Public campaigns promoting public transportation in the city should be implemented.
