Question
Read the paragraph.
(1) The driving age should be increased to nineteen years old nationwide to make the roads safer for everyone. (2) This would decrease the number of people who lose their lives in car accidents. (3) Drivers ages sixteen to nineteen are almost three times more likely than drivers age twenty or older to be in a fatal crash. (4) That being said, there may be other ways to decrease the number of accidents involving teen drivers, such as offering more rigorous driver’s education classes and issuing tougher seat belt laws.
Which is a possible rebuttal to the counterclaim?
Those solutions may make the road safer, but increasing the driving age is proven to save significantly more lives, according to studies comparing different state laws.
In addition to these solutions, teenagers should not be allowed to drive with other teens in the car, as this also increases the risk that they will get into an accident.
Any law that regulates teenage driving could save lives, whether it increases the driving age, increases the penalty for driving without a seat belt, or limits who can be in the car.
New laws and tougher driver’s education courses are important, because many teenagers drive to school, help drive younger siblings, and drive to after-school jobs.
