Senior Citizens Young Drivers

People look at me and think I am a terrible driver
just because I am young. However the reality is I
am a fine driver. It is a common misconception
that teenagers are "bad" drivers; in my experience
I have found that it's not only teenagers that are
terrible drivers. I think people point to
teenagers only because they need a collection of
drivers to blame and they choose the beginners.
When I look at senior citizens, young drivers
(between the ages of 15 - 25, teenagers included),

lurks on college campuses. It is observed that the

alcohol. The NCADD (National Association Against

attacked the symbolic and actual seats of our
