For example: I had a friend in high school. His dad owned a Dodge dealership. So at 16 his dad bought him a brand new Viper GTS. Two weeks later my friend wrapped it around a telephone pole barely surviving. His dad learned his lesson real quick. Bought him a hummer H1 wagon a few weeks later. lol

Sorry for those of you that are in your teens but it's the truth.
This would be my main point to argue as well... Even though every kid from 17-20 thinks they are a good driver, the truth to it is that the majority are not...
