They did raise the age here. It used to be you got your learner's at 15...the way it was with me in 1999. But now it's 15 and 6 months....making the age of driver's license 16 and 6 months.
Also now if you are under 21 and you get any kind of ticket, you have to go to a DMV driver improvement course or you lose your license. I think that was made a law in like 2003 or 04'
They have been trying to raise it to 18 for a long time around here. I dont know if it would be good or bad. The roads would probably be safer no doubt, but the schools would have to buy more buses, driver, etc....to accomodate all the kids who normally wouldnt be riding the bus....
