It's true the "new toy" syndrome will be there at any age but the difference in maturity between 16 and 18 I think is enormous and when speaking statistically makes an enormous difference in the number of fatalities. Remember there are some states and countries where the driving age is 18 and when you compare the numbers it is no contest. The 16 and 17 yearolds kill themselves and other way more than the 18 and 19 yearolds do. Even when comparing the age groups of both brand new drivers.
i agree with you, but i just think driving experience has a huge part to do with it.
