Studies show teen passengers tend to urge drivers to speed, to take corners too closely and sometimes they even physically interfere with the driver. |
We realize that restricting teen passengers has the potential for putting more teen drivers on the road, but that risk is more than offset by limiting the infinitely more dangerous trips of multiple teen passengers. |
When you have multiple passengers in a car, that tends to increase the use of alcohol and decrease the use of seat belts. It's not a cool thing to wear a seat belt when you're in the car with all your buddies. |
